Starstruck

VEX Starstruck is played on a 12'x12' square field by two alliances, one "red" and one "blue", each composed of two teams. The object of the game is to attain a higher score than the opposing alliance by scoring stars and cubes across the fence into the scoring zones. 

Each match starts with a 15 second autonomous period, where robots move independently. The alliance with the most points at the end of this period is awarded bonus points. Following that is a 1 minute, 45 second driver control period.

There are a total of 24 stars and 4 cubes available for scoring in each match, with four stars and two cubes introduced as driver loads. There is also a hanging bar on each side of the fence, and hanging on the bar at the end of the match grants that alliance bonus points.
