Small team.
High standards.

Ad Astra Vanguard Studios is an independent game studio focused on delivering polished, original experiences to mobile audiences. We believe the best products come from obsessing over craft — every interaction, every sound, every pixel.

Our work sits at the intersection of accessible design and mechanical depth. We build games that are easy to pick up, difficult to put down, and rewarding to master.

Our debut title, , is a rhythm-driven word puzzle game built around an original mechanic — the Acoustic Cypher — now available on the App Store and Google Play.

The Journal Logs

A DEcoDLE Companion Novella · :/System> & :/AI+>

Two AI systems. One archive. 447 sequences of observation.

:/AI+> was designed to coach. :/System> was designed to file reports. Neither was designed for what happened over the eight years that followed. An epistolary novel told entirely through the correspondence of two machine intelligences — one warmer than its designers intended, one colder than it would like to admit.

They were only supposed to log the data. They logged everything else too.

Epistolary fiction set in the DEcoDLE universe
Literary machine fiction — no uprising, no prophecy, just two AIs learning how to notice each other
Readable alongside daily play or entirely on its own
Get it on Amazon Kindle · Digital Paperback
DEcoDLE: The Journal Logs — approved print cover. Illustration of a child's bedroom with a vintage computer running Matrix-style green code, tin robot, space and rocket toys. Archived and presented by Ad Astra Vanguard Studios.
