Finish the tutorial for your first Stand Arrow, get the phone from Meryl Mei Qi, then follow the roughly 48-step main story, which also gives plenty of arrows. Level cap is 50, and each level gives 3 attribute points.
A simple first-hour checklist:
The tutorial teaches combat (M1 combos, heavy attacks, blocking, dodging and Stand skills), and gives you your first Stand Arrow. Hey Ya! is the guide character. The Stand you roll is random, so do not panic if it is not the one you wanted.
You get it in the story from Meryl Mei Qi. The phone holds the Gifts app, where you enter codes with Redeem. If Gifts will not open, you probably have not reached that story step.
About 48 steps. It follows the plot of JoJo Part 9, The JOJOLands. The story also pays out many Mysterious Arrows. Finishing it gives 10 extra arrows as a launch reward, lets arrows roll Stands that are held back until then (Strength, Burning Down The House and Catch The Rainbow), and counts toward unlocking a third character slot.
The official FAQ suggests Raids and the metal detector. Raids include the Train Raid, Highway Star and the 77 Rings Raid. The story also gives many arrows. You can craft Arrow Parts into arrows too.
Do Elimination and Bounty, per the official FAQ. The cap is level 50. Each level gives 3 attribute points to spread across Health, Damage and Ability. Ability also matters for time-stop Stands: Star Platinum and The World get double time-stop length at max Ability.
Build a garage in your gang base, or hop into a drivable car on the map, such as the police car at the police station.
PvP has anti-teaming: if several players hit the same target in a short time, the target gets about 1 second of invincibility.
Do not spend arrows until you have tried your Stand through a few story fights. Rarity is not power, and there is no official best Stand. See the tier list and use Lucky or Bizarre Arrows later when you have spare Mysterious Arrows.
The official FAQ names Raids and the metal detector. The main story also hands out plenty of arrows. You can also craft them from Arrow Parts.
The official FAQ points to Elimination and Bounty. Each level gives 3 attribute points for Health, Damage or Ability, and the level cap is 50.

Yes, it is free to play on Roblox. The Robux shop only sells optional items such as arrows and boosts. Beware of fake games that sell entry.
Controls
In Stand Out you summon your Stand with E, attack with left click, block with F and dodge with Q. Hold T to use your EX skill and press Left Ctrl to pilot your Stand.
How to get Stands
You get your first Stand by finishing the tutorial and using the Stand Arrow it gives you, then reroll with Mysterious Arrows. Lucky Arrows have a 1.5% chance of a Pinnacle Stand and Bizarre Arrows have 4.4%, and both skip Rare Stands.
Stands
Stand Out has at least 62 named Stands counted from the official Trello and the fan wiki, and the rarest are the Pinnacle tier: Star Platinum, The World and King Crimson, plus the evolved Star Platinum: The World and The World: Alternative Universe. The table below shows rarity from two sources because they disagree, and the in-game archive is the final word.
Tier list
The Pinnacle tier in Stand Out is Star Platinum, The World and King Crimson, plus two evolved versions, Star Platinum: The World and The World: Alternative Universe, using the official Trello of November 9. The developers say there is no single strongest Stand, so this list ranks rarity and not power.
