Anima Project Studio is a studio composed of a wide team of professionals focused on making Anima Gate of Memories the best game it can possibly be.

Everything you have seen so far was created by a small team working in the same office where we design all the Anima games. After being dedicated to this project for more than one year and having fully finished pre-production, we considered that it was time to finally start the creation of Gate of Memories. However, we are not alone; there is a lot of people waiting to work with us and become part of the studio once we hit the goal on Kickstarter.

Enthusiast of RPGs and videogames since he was a child, he entered the professional game world when he was just a teenager, working with several eastern authors to develop the basis of what would become Anima Beyond Fantasy. In 2005 he published the first book of the Anima saga, and he decided to devote himself to game design, publishing in the following years many books worldwide, as well as many other games, like Shadow of Omega series, the wargame Anima Tactics, Feudal Havock and Guilty Gods.
