About NebulaPainter
Nebula Painter is a constellation memory puzzle built on SpriteKit. Each of the 50 levels selects a real constellation chart — including Cassiopeia, Orion, Lyra, Pegasus, Hercules, and Sagittarius — and shows a numbered mini star-map in the MEMORY panel for three seconds. When the panel fades, you must tap the glowing star anchors in the exact order shown. A correct step lights the anchor in cyan and draws a glowing line; a wrong step is marked in red during the review replay. Levels are grouped into five phases. Phase 1 (L1–L10) uses 3–8 anchors on single-star patterns. Phase 2 (L11–L20) introduces binary-star concepts with up to 9 anchors. Phase 3 (L21–L30) adds dense nebula navigation with up to 10 anchors. Phase 4 (L31–L40) layers time-dilation mechanics with up to 10 anchors. Phase 5 (L41–L50) is the grandmaster challenge, culminating in a 15-anchor final artwork. Star ratings reward efficient play: three stars for completing the order with no mistakes, two stars for one retry, one star for finishing. Progress and star ratings are saved locally on your device, so you can play fully offline at your own pace. Features: - Memorize a numbered star-map order shown in the MEMORY panel for three seconds before it fades. - Tap glowing star anchors on the nebula in the exact memorized order to trace constellation lines. - Watch the review replay after each attempt: correct steps glow cyan, wrong steps are marked red. - Earn three stars for a flawless run, two stars for one retry, one star for finishing on a later attempt. - Play 50 levels across five phases, from 3-anchor single-star patterns to a 15-anchor grandmaster artwork. - Explore real constellation charts including Cassiopeia, Orion, Lyra, Pegasus, Hercules, and Sagittarius. - Pause anytime to Resume, Restart, or return to the Menu; progress is saved locally. - Toggle Music and Sound Effects in Settings. - Fully offline single-player game with no ads, no in-app purchases, and no data collection.
