303 stars

[Well-met]

How? 

At 282 I've done every map, every course, every buddy mode and I'm still missing a whooping 21 stars? I don't understand where all of these others are at.

I suspect there's many hidden stars on that weird beach map, but other than that I've no clue. No guide exists anywhere either.

What's going on?

Technically there are 304 Stars in the game, but the star from the Intro - Prologue Level is still bugged (and has been bugged since Closed Beta).  It will grant you a star when you first complete it, but when you restart the game, that star will disappear.  Perhaps a dev (@CaleyC) could take a look at this star for the next patch?

Here is the breakdown of the 303 obtainable stars:

Gym Class (45 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    3 x 1 Star Trials = 3 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Buddy Levels = 6 Stars

Playground (48 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Trials = 6 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Buddy Levels = 6 Stars

School (48 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Trials = 6 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Buddy Levels = 6 Stars

Wholesale (48 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Trials = 6 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Buddy Levels = 6 Stars

Master Class (39 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    3 x 1 Star Trials = 3 Stars

Basement (45 Stars)
    6 x 6 Star Levels = 36 Stars
    3 x 1 Star Trials = 3 Stars
    6 x 1 Star Teddy Levels = 6 Stars

Blue Box (6 Stars)
    6 x 1 Star Levels = 6 Stars

Parkour Island (6 Stars)
    6 x 1 Star Objectives = 6 Stars

Sunshine Shore (6 Stars)
    6 x 1 Star Levels = 6 Stars

GAT HQ (12 Stars)
    3 x 3 Star Levels = 9 Stars
    3 x 1 Star Buddy Levels = 3 Stars

Intro (0 Stars) * Bugged
    1 x 1 Star Level = 0 Star (*Bugged star; it will disappear after restart)

You can always press Esc while in a level to see which stars you are missing for that level.

Is there really a buddy mode for every single course? Some portals lock me out before I even try

Buddy levels are unlocked in the same order as the normal levels.  So you have to complete Buddy mode for the 1st level to unlock the 2nd level, and so on.  You can't bring Buddy into a level without having completed the previous one.

ooh alright then it's mostly buddy modes I am lacking. Thank you much

Instant noodles is correct in their star count, also prior to this update there was another behind the scenes unlock adding to rank when it shouldnt have that was cleaned up in the latest. Intro should also be too. I can take a look through them again to make sure i didnt miss any. Thank you for bringing them to my attention.

Something I missed is pressing ESC when carrying the dog changes the star list completely. It's not super intuitive.

[Well-met]

Well now I'm positive I've done every buddy mode I missed, and yet I'm still at 298. It is mind numbing

[Well-met]

Now look at this

I join School world and check my stars

and then I complete the sister course and it says I'm missing one star at 47/48? I don't understand

[Well-met]

help me understand where I'm missing these five mysterious stars, please friends

We're taking a look at this thanks for reporting it.
