Astra Protocol 2 is a space adventure described by developer Slice Bar Games as “cassette‑futurism inspired” and was released on Steam in December 2022. In the game, players command a powerful craft on a search‑and‑rescue mission to unravel the mystery of the Astra Protocol. A new update has been released to coincide with the third-year anniversary of this quirky retro-inspired title.
