Main Character: Eira
Age unknown. A cat-eared girl.

A long-lost promise still echoes in Eira's heart. Driven by her endless longing, she wanders deep into the Astral Disc to

unlock its mysterious secrets. In this silent journey, she clings to one flickering hope. If she unravels the mysteries of

the stars, will she finally get to see her again?

• Zodiac Guardians

Deep within the Astral Disc wait the Zodiac Guardians, each bound by obsessions they cannot let go.

I used to be a pure programmer. Two years ago, I decided to learn digital art entirely from scratch to bring this project

to life. Every single character, animation frame, and bullet pattern was hand-drawn by one person.

Why make an anime game? Because it has been my deepest passion since childhood. Today, I am finally creating the

exact game I have always dreamed of playing.

Honestly, every step of the way was a massive challenge. But the real battle was simply refusing to give up. There were

countless moments when quitting felt like the easiest option, but I kept powering through the long, lonely nights. And

now, the game is finally here.

This is a story about the things we cannot let go. I truly hope you enjoy it.
