Your headquarters have been destroyed
Your allies are gone
You have no resources
You are alone in hostile space
Your final command
INITIATE ASTRA PROTOCOL

Using text commands and a retro interface, how long can you survive?

Astra Protocol Remake enters beta — retro space survival gets overhauled
South Yorkshire-based indie studio Slice Bar Games has officially pushed Astra Protocol Remake into beta, marking a huge milestone for the project. The announcement comes alongside a brand-new trailer that gives us a proper look at the revamped visuals — and yes, it’s looking as gloriously retro-futuristic as ever. You can jump into the beta now via Itch.io, with Slice Bar inviting players to download the latest build, play through it, and share feedback to help fine-tune the final release.

We've made some slight adjustments to the UI in Astra Protocol Remake. Based on player feedback, we've made the UI a little chunkier and brought back the Amstrad CPC style font.

What do you think about the changes?

Green, Amber, or Black & White?

Which retro palette do you prefer?

With Astra Protocol Remake, we've added in-game customisation, so you no longer need to stick to one colour!

Here's Astra Protocol 2 running on an "ideal" setup

CRT monitor ✔️
Chunky Macro keyboard ✔️
Logging to dot matrix printer ✔️
Physical user manual ✔️

The only thing missing is running off of a floppy disk 💾 (the game still fits on one)

Do you have an ideal setup?
