Visual Novel Fest Demo!
From August 7-14th, Astronaut: The Best is part of Steam's Visual Novel Fest! To celebrate, we're offering a special limited-time demo including two missions.
The featured mission "Prestige Drama" challenges you to shape the nation’s perception of space by meddling in a popular TV show. Will you turn the show into space race propaganda, lead a coup against the production, or influence a classy drama to become a lurid romance? The choice is up to you. "Prestige Drama" comes replete with a panoply of never-before-seen polish and usability features that make it a whole new experience from its previous public appearance at LudoNarraCon 2023.
Sure, Astronaut: The Best isn’t your typical visual novel. But for fans of decision-based narratives, It offers surreally comedic consequences, a moral laboratory of perilous responsibility, and roguelite missions that are never the same twice. Guide procedurally generated astronauts through a web of scandals, challenges, and space-shatteringly meaningful choices. Turn incompetent recruits into national heroes by any means necessary, or your bosses will see you dead in a ditch.
On August 15th, this demo will no longer be available... but the full game will be released! Please consider wishlisting if you'd like to support strange and original games that are trying to evolve the visual novel into something new.
Enjoy the demo!
