AstralShiftPro, LDA is an independent video game developer based in Olhão, Portugal. The company was founded in 2022 by a group of developers: software engineers João Caetano and André Rufo, artists and graphic designers António "Kira" Lopes and Pedro "Hika" Dias, and writer Patrícia "Ebee" Silva. The studio is best known for their work on Little Goody Two Shoes and Pocket Mirror.

History

AstralShiftPro began as a small endeavor in 2016, with the release of a free RPG Maker game called Pocket Mirror. In 2021, the studio announced it would be partnering up with then-RPG Maker publisher KOMODO (formerly Degica Games) to release a remastered version of the title under the name Pocket Mirror ~ GoldenerTraum. The game was released for Microsoft Windows and MacOS on May 19, 2023.

In August 2022 Square Enix announced they'd be publishing Little Goody Two Shoes, a prequel to Pocket Mirror ~ GoldenerTraum, under their indie publishing division Square Enix Collective. Little Goody Two Shoes was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch on October 31, 2023. The game garnered critical and public acclaim, with a score of 84 on Metacritic. Little Goody Two Shoes' distinctive art style, which uses a combination of traditional and digital art techniques, earned it a spot as a finalist for Excellence in Visual Arts at the 2024 edition of the Independent Games Festival Awards. The game was also nominated for Outstanding Video Game at the 35th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, though it did not win.
