Multiplayer in Astra Protocol 2? We're looking into implementing telnet support, allowing a second user to control the ship via a terminal. Whilst one player pilots the ship, the other can monitor readouts. What do you think? Would you explore Astra Protocol 2 with a crew?

Had an unexpected surprise to see that Steam had performed a Steam Deck Compatibility Review for Astra Protocol 2. We're now listed as 'Playable' on the Steam Deck. Take this with a pinch of salt as you still require a keyboard to input commands #indiegame #spacesim #scifi

I can't lie to you about your chances, but... you have my sympathies. Happy Alien Day 2026 Alien was a big influence on Astra Protocol 2, so we're celebrating with 70% off the game this weekend store.steampowered.com/app/2026750/As… What's your favourite Alien quote? #scifi #lv426

The feature design document for Astra Protocol 3 (working title) is finally complete. Gloriously typed up on an Amstrad CPC 464, it's too big to fit on a 3" disc, comes in at 32 minutes of cassette tape and over 10 meters of listing paper #gamedev #retro #amstrad

An update on the next game in the Astra Protocol series. We're hard at work on the feature document, seeing what we want to keep from AP2 & what new stuff we'll add in. For authenticity, we're writing it on a computer from the 1980s & maxed out the memory of two files #gamedev

Alright Captains. Astra Protocol 2 has had Steam achievements for over a month now, and here's the most & least common ones that have been unlocked The most common involve self destructing your ship and crashing into a planet. We need to boost these numbers! #indiegame #scifi

Astra Protocol 2 players... We've checked the achievements stats and only a tiny group of you have pulled off the hardest challenges. Who's brave enough to go for the rarer ones this weekend? If you're in that small percentage, show us! #AchievementHunt #PCGaming #SteamGames

ICYMI, we released an update to Astra Protocol 2, adding in achievements and some other features to make it easier to speedrun, such as seeding the randomiser and easier ways to achieve the win condition Here's our baseline (with a lot of save scumming) #indiegame #speedrun
