Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Unstable Star follows the story of a resistance in a war against an intergalactic empire, featuring fights between spaceships and explosions. The story also explicitly states that the empire's actions would cause mass genocide of a solar system, although this is ultimately prevented and no graphic deaths are shown on screen.
