Starstruck: Hands of Time Launches with Unique Controller Support

Rhythm adventure enthusiasts have something to look forward to, as Starstruck: Hands of Time is set to launch
for PC via Steam on September 16. However, fans of the PlayStation 4 version will be disappointed as developer Createdelic
has confirmed that this version is no longer planned. Despite this setback, the game’s innovative gameplay
might still capture the hearts of many.

An Overview of Starstruck: Hands of Time

The game is described as a story-rich rhythm adventure where players are taken on a musical ride involving both guitar
play and time travel. The storyline features diverse gameplay elements that combine to create
a one-of-a-kind experience. The central plot involves controlling a giant hand that can destroy a miniature town,
or playing as two guitarist kids who inhabit that town.

Rock Out with a Guitar Hero Controller

One notable feature of Starstruck: Hands of Time is its support for Guitar Hero or Rock Band guitar controllers.
Yes, you read that right! If you have one of those controllers from the early 2000s gathering dust in your closet,
now is the time to bring it back into the limelight. It’s a nostalgic trip for those who enjoyed the Guitar Hero or
Rock Band series, offering a unique control scheme that sets the game apart from other rhythm-based titles.

In these interactive rock opera segments, players can literally play the guitar, adding an extra layer of involvement in
the gameplay. With a catchy soundtrack performed by singer Elsie Lovelock, the game aims to captivate audiences
with its musical narrative.

Destruction as a Giant Human Hand

Another intriguing gameplay aspect is the ability to control a giant human hand. Players can demolish houses, solve
puzzles, and open new paths for other characters using tools like hammers and screwdrivers. The giant hand can be
customized in size and skin color, adding a personal touch to the chaos they create.

A Miniature World with Big Mysteries

The game is set in a diorama world in the year 20XX. Players will meet quirky characters and gradually unravel
how their lives contribute to a larger mystery concerning the end of mankind. This storyline adds depth to the
game, making it more than just a rhythm adventure.

Options for All Players

Worried about missing a beat? Don’t fret! The game includes an “Autoplay” mode that allows players to enjoy
the storyline and musical elements without the challenges of rhythm gameplay. Additionally, players can adjust
the difficulty level between “Normal” and “Master” mode.

Furthermore, the game supports various controllers, including keyboard, Xbox controller, PlayStation 4 controller,
Switch Pro Controller, and even guitar controllers. The controls can also be remapped, providing flexibility for rhythm gameplay enthusiasts.

Soundtrack and Special Features

The original soundtrack, composed by Andrew Allanson, features live instruments and vocals across various genres,
enhancing the overall gaming experience. The game’s unique elements make it a must-try for fans of rhythm games and
story-driven adventures.

As the launch date of September 16 approaches, make sure to mark your calendars. The title will be available for
purchase on Steam, offering a fascinating blend of guitar play, storytelling, and unique gameplay mechanics
