Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About

STARWEAVE is more than a narrative-focused tactics game – it’s a tapestry of intertwined fates, a journey marked by camaraderie, laughter, loss, and defiance against the inescapable. Set against the backdrop of a world held hostage by prophecy, you will navigate the treacherous landscapes of destiny and grapple with the chains that bind you to an oppressive cycle.
Developer Note: This game is a thesis project created by a group of students and freelance collaborators. Starweave should take around 3 hours to complete. Please note that the game will likely not receive any additional updates. All purchases go directly to the developers. For more information on the game's development and release, please refer to our devlogs/Steam updates above.
Features:
✦ Squad-Based, Turn-Based Combat: Engage in tactically demanding encounters where every decision counts, and the balance of power can shift in the blink of an eye.
✦ Refusal Mechanic: Refuse to be bound by destiny. Characters may resist their prescribed roles, altering the course of what they've been told to do. It's up to you to come to grips with your errant actions.
✦ Rich Storytelling: Immerse yourself in a richly woven narrative where bonds are tested, friendships are forged, and every victory is a step towards breaking the cycle.
✦ Character Bonding: Experience heartwarming bonding moments with your teammates. Their lives are intertwined with yours, and their struggles, their laughter, and their sacrifices will resonate with you long after you’ve put the game down.
✦ A Stellar Team: Created by a team of over sixty students and collaborators, and including a phenomenal party comprised of the voice talents of Heather Gonzalez (Monster Hunter Rise, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment), Anjali Kunapaneni (Monster Hunter Wilds, The Outer Worlds 2), Marissa Lenti (Octopath Traveler 0, Borderlands 3), and Brian Timothy Anderson (Fire Emblem Engage, Infinity Nikki).
In STARWEAVE, every decision, every interaction, every step taken can tip the scale of destiny. With every choice, you will come closer to the truth - the truth of who you are, who you were meant to be, and who you choose to become. Stand strong against the tides of fate and weave your own starry path. Your journey awaits.

Reviews
All stories tread the same footfall, and STARWEAVE knows this and embraces it. Tracing the steps of the Dreamers before you, the love of the art of storytelling is so crystal clear. The game uses its turn-based mechanics to enhance the story beats, pulling at your heartstrings with each twist and turn. Each character has etched themselves on my heart after just a few hours spent with them. Well worth a play! Well worth the money! And, well worth the sacrifice, but don't bring that part up to Blackguard.
Well, I don't hate this game, but if you are considering buying it, Here are some things I want you to know before making your decisions(they are all negative): First, while the developers claimed a total of 3 hours of gameplay. You are more than likely to only experience 1~2 hours if you don't get stuck on the gameplay side of things. Just purely based on the "a dollar per hour" rule, you will not get what your money's worth. Second, the friendly, fun, cozy interactions between characters end like 1/3 into the game. The game goes full escalation right after a certain event that I will not elaborate on. So, if you are here for the character interactions, you will not get what your money's worth. Third, the game doesn't really explore the theme it wants to explore. The game wants to talk about how people deal with fate, unfairness, and all that, but it simply throws in a bunch of surface-level representations of supposedly a wide range of attitudes(not that wide actually) and calls it a day. So, if you want any nuianced discussion or exploration of the topic, you will not get what your money's worth. Fourth, this game is not a multi-ending game, and your choice very much doesn't matter. So, if you want to see through different endings, you will not get what your money's worth. Fifth, if you just find the concept to be interesting and wants to spend 2 hours of free time. I guess you will get your money's worth.

TL;DR A really really beautiful game that can be completed in one sitting!! From the visuals, the OST, the voice overs, the UI/UX, the game mechanics, and the writing - everything ties together meaningfully to deliver a message that we could all do with more of. -- In the short span of time, the characters really managed to capture my attention with what each of them stand for, and they're superbly written! The voice acting brought the characters to life so wonderfully and it really immersed me in the story - giving that extra oomph during certain scenes... The game's visuals are gorgeous, and I liked how at some parts the text animation changes to create more of an impact. The visuals and OST also lends itself to the atmosphere of the game, and really nailed the bittersweetness of it all. The gameplay itself was really fun and innovative, and certain mechanics had me thinking about what it means to fight against fate :) Ultimately, everything in the game really lends itself to the message that the studio wanted to bring, and it's a message we could all do with more of in these times!!!
curtinho me deixou interessado pra jogar mais jogos taticos
De vez em quando, sai um jogo que meche completamente com você. Que te faz pensar coisas, sentir coisas. E esse é com certeza um desses jogos. Ele é bem curtinho, sua gameplay é bem básica, e seus sistemas não são tão polidos quanto poderiam ser. Mas tudo isso, não importa de verdade. Porquê esse jogo, tem algo que quer dizer, e ele faz isso muito bem. Cada minuto do jogo, cada decisão da gameplay dele, cada sistema. Tá alí pra apenas um propósito, elevar a trama e a história desse jogo. E o resultado? Um dos melhores jogos que eu já joguei esse ano, de longe. Dê uma chance pra esse jogo, e você não vai se arrepender.
This game honestly blew me away, the characters are great, I love the art style, and the story drew me in. Absolutely recommend everyone check it out!
Cute art and great voice acting. While being on the shorter side STARWEAVE is most certainly sweet and worth your time. Gameplay blends in tactics without overwhelming the player, allowing for BOTH the game's narrative and design to shine.
As a curmudgeon, I dislike seeing this plot over and over. As an artist, I have to admit this is the best implementation of it I've ever seen. Anything more would be spoilers.
a very short game that still is very enjoyable with lots of pretty art my only complaint is that the game is definitely too short and as such is a little rushed in its development and payoff. though it doesnt actually detract much from the story. this shortness makes sense though considering that the game is a student project. tldr(even though its like 3 lines): a pretty game thats perhaps too short but atleast theres a good reason that it is short.
A refreshing, short game that feels slightly rushed but beautiful every step of the way! I think the turn-based combat had a great twinge of personality with having to earn your party members' trust and having them do what they think is best at times. Overall a great game with a beautiful soundtrack, gorgeous art and great voice acting!
