Zodiac: Story of the Guardian, or Zodiac TGS, is a game created by C-Dawg using Zelda Classic's game engine. The game takes inspirations from games such as VideoGame/Metroid1 and mainly VideoGame/TheGuardianLegend, with the Guardian's ability to transform into a spaceship and going through "corridor" levels.
The last update for the game was on 2 March 2016, before C-Dawg disappeared out from Zelda Classic's forums.

** The kicker? [[spoiler: Due to a GameBreakingBug in version (2-3-16), the path to bad endings 1 & 2 is blocked, meaning that the above endings are [[ThisIsGonnaSuck the only paths possible]]!]]
* LetsPlay: A complete one for an early build done by [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsHIJXapvOc5Gb4bzj4VM6oYn6aW4YALT MeleeWizard]].
* PatchworkMap: The Zodiac's interior consists of multiple biomes of different nature and habitats for all manners of alien life-forms. It can range from jungles, deserts, underwater areas and ... whatever [[WombLevel Cancer zone]] is supposed to be made of.
* RecurringBoss: The Allies' robot, Iron, impedes the Guardian's path throughout the game, coming back stronger with each defeat.
* RobotGirl: The titular Guardian.
* ShoutOut: Draintroids. An obvious homage to [[VideoGame/Metroid1 titular alien]]. They also can only be killed with the same method.
* StaticStunGun: The Stun Beam, can stop certain enemies on the track for a while. Also required to traverse Gemini zone, by using it [[ItMakesSenseInContext to hatch space fish eggs]].
