Star

Pale, high-chroma golden green for pop highlights
About Star
Star looks like a bright star sticker that's been kissed with a soft golden edge, not a straight banana or a lemon-green smear. It's lighter than Banana Bombshell but less chalky than the palest accents, and it reads warmer and more honey-leaning than Eternal Summer. Against Pac-Man, Star feels a touch more golden and less arcade-neon, so it lands as "notice me" without turning toy-bright.
I'd use Star for ecommerce deal highlights, loyalty-app rewards screens, and logistics dashboards where you want a cheerful signal that still feels refined enough for daily UI. It also works well on food delivery promo tiles for "limited time" moments, and in consumer fintech for featured offer chips and inline status tags where you don't want the yellow to veer too green.
Pair it with deep green, ink, or charcoal so the warmth stays controlled. If you sit it next to very cool blues, it can start to look slightly off, more amber than intended.
