    Check your texture import settings: I don't think you are properly importing an alpha channel: you shouldn't be seeing the gray checkered pattern in the asset.

    I tried to change settings in Import Settings but it does not seem to work. I checked "Alpha Is Transparency" and tied other setting too but nothing works.

    Go find a png on the internet that you KNOW has transparency, and try that. I don't think your star has the transparency you think it does.

    Here's one.
