You are melvin, a little guy with a big umbrella.

Melvin loves the night sky, but he noticed that some stars are out of place. Try to collect all the stars before the sun come up-- but watch out for the monsters!

Use the arrow keys to jump and move left/ right, and try to collect all the yellow stars. Game ends when you reach the sky (about a minute), collect all 100 coins, fall off the platforms, or lose all lives (the monster's body is safe to touch, but getting hit by a bullet will cost a life).

If you get stuck, try going off the side of the screen! If you jump off one side, you'll appear on the other.

It is not possible to get past a certain point in the beginning:

Once you go off the side of the screen, you appear on the other side. So from this point you can jump off the left side of the screen and land on the long platform on the right :)

Oh ! I didn't know you could go off the left and right edge.

Might add an animated LEFT and RIGHT facing arrow when player is at far left or right.

Let's see how far I get now with this new knowledge of screen-wrap.

Got 79 of 100 stars.

Interesting game. It's not just jump to platform to stay alive but grab all the yellow stars as well.

Nice game, @michaela012 ! Gold star for you.

@dw817 that's a good suggestion! I'll look to add that in and will make a note in the description, as well. Thank you!
