A puzzle game based on constellations from stars that emerge from a singularity. Your goal for each level is to construct a repeating constellation pattern that can link all the stars.

There are three main types of controls. Click on one to activate it, and then all of them use left-right mouse motion to do what they do (rotate, bend, scale). There are also switcher buttons that you can click on when they appear later on.

When thinking of starting with nothing, I went with a Big Bang theme, because before the Big Bang, there was nothing anywhere else other than the central singularity. So, each level starts with empty space, and then you explode all matter into it, and then you can play. Admittedly, the astronomy is more than a little suspect here, but the game is the point of it rather than the science, after all.

Guide:

• When "Detonate" comes up, click on the singularity to explode it.
• When "Constellate" comes up, click on the controls on the bottom to link stars into patterns.
• When "Tesselate" comes up, you've solved the puzzle, and all stars are reachable from your repeated pattern. (You don't need to do anything here.)
• When "Concentrate" comes up, all matter in the universe is compressing into a new singularity for you to detonate. (You don't need to do anything here.)

There are 21 levels in all (you start from level zero, of course, because you start from nothing).
