Artis Impact

What does it mean to truly belong? In a world torn apart by time and technology, where the line between human and machine blurs, Akane embarks on a journey to uncover her forgotten past—and protect the future of her village.

Artis Impact is a story of growth, choice, and the search for belonging in an ever-changing, post-apocalyptic world.
