I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what the designer, Flinxz, was going for when they first crafted Stars. However, the true genius behind this mat design lies in its simplicity. No flashy colors or complex patterns. Just an ocean of glistening stars, which is all you need if you’re planning to do battle in space.
