About this game
A noble lord brings two squires along on a hunt. One is a gentle boy who should not exist. The other is a girl who dreams of plunging a dagger into her master’s heart.
Trail of Stars is a short, bittersweet visual novel about two vulnerable souls navigating first love, growing up, and protecting what they have—when all they have is each other.
A short and (bitter)sweet tale, under 3k words with two endings. A moving story you can finish in one sitting.
Beautiful hand-drawn artwork. Watch the scenes unfold through storybook-inspired visuals and three detailed ending illustrations.
An emotional original score featuring cello performances by ArcanaXIX.
One knightly kiss on the hand. A must for fans of tender romances and stories featuring childhood friends to lovers.

The Last Winter Knight is now out!
Hi friends! I'm excited to announce that The Last Winter Knight, my full length visual novel set in the same world as Trail of Stars, has just released! The Last Winter Knight is a sombre tale about a ghost who awakens inside a suit of armour. Left to search an abandoned castle for their memories, they'll piece together their past and come to terms with their regrets... or succumb to them and meet a fate worse than death. It's on sale for the first two weeks, and the soundtrack is available too! If you enjoyed the OST for Trail of Stars, I think you'll like this one too. (ArcanaXIX, the cellist, makes an reappearance on three of the tracks!)Winter Knight isn't a direct continuation of Trail of Stars: the story's focus is mainly on familial bonds and grief, but both the squires from Trail of Stars do make an appearance as fully fledged knights. I would love to know what you think of the game if you check it out!As always, take care!-EliRead full article on Community Announcements (ENDYSIS)
