Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re launching in Early Access so the community can help us tune the moment-to-moment fun of multiplayer—movement/gravity mechanics, mode rules, and map flow. Starboys is a party-focused arena shooter, and player feedback is the fastest way for us to improve balance, readability, and overall match feel as we expand content and polish.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our current target is around 12 months, but this may shift based on feedback, testing results, and the scope of features we decide to prioritize.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For 1.0, our goal is a larger, more complete package and stronger long-term reasons to play. We plan to:

Expand the map pool (targeting ~16+)
Add more game types (targeting ~8)
Add progression/unlockables tied to in-game accomplishments
Expand the custom level editor/toolset and sharing features
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Current build includes:

Core gravity / wall-and-ceiling traversal gameplay
Multiplayer (party play)
4 maps and 4 game types
Customization
Server Hosting
Private Lobbies

Not in yet / still in progress:

Progression/unlockables
Additional maps and modes
Editor/toolset features (publishing, browsing, moderation, etc.) (if not fully there yet)
Balance, polish, performance, and bug fixes

Expect frequent iteration—some updates may rebalance systems or change how modes/maps work.
”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We don’t currently plan to change the base price when we leave Early Access. If our pricing plans ever change, we’ll communicate that clearly ahead of time on Steam.
”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We’ll collect feedback and bug reports through Steam Discussions and our Discord, and we’ll use playtests/patch notes to show what changed and why. We’re specifically looking for feedback on map flow, mode rules, character interactions, balance, and readability in multiplayer.”

About This Game

Run on walls. Fight on ceilings. Flip gravity mid-air to steal the angle—and the win.

Starboys is a third-person arena shooter where gravity isn’t a gimmick — it’s your toolkit. Swap your “down” direction on the fly, chain movement through the arena, and turn every surface into a new route, flank, or escape.

Gravity is a weapon

  • Run on floors, walls, and ceilings — any surface is playable space.

  • Flip gravity mid-fight to create instant off-angles, dodges, and escapes.

  • Use arena tools like jump pads, bounce surfaces, gravity zones, and more.

Fast matches, big moments

  • 1v1 to 4v4 (up to 8 players) across multiple match types.

  • Designed for quick sessions, constant momentum, and highlight plays.

Customize your Starboy

Show up your way with cosmetic customization — skins, colors, helmets, gloves, armor, boots, and more.

Build arenas in-game

Starboys includes an in-game level builder — the same tools we use to make official arenas.
  • Place platforms, walls, jump pads, gravity zones, spawn points, and more.

  • No scripting. No external tools. Build, test, and iterate instantly.

  • Sharing, browsing, and rating community-made arenas is planned as development continues.

Online play & community

Host matches, invite friends, or jump into public games. We’re building Starboys to be easy to pick up, wildly replayable, and perfect for friendly rivalries.

Development status

Starboys is in active development. Core gameplay is playable today (movement, gravity, multiplayer, customization, and the level builder), with more arenas, tuning, and additional content planned over time. Expect balance changes and ongoing polish as we iterate with community feedback.
