Astronaut: The Best takes you on a Supernatural Space Race
Astronaut: The Best, an occult management adventure game developed by Universal Happy Maker, was showcased at the fifth annual LudoNarraCon 2023. The game challenges players to use hard work, lies, and witchcraft to overcome roguelite obstacles and win the space race. Players act as the director of a space program and are tasked with turning procedurally generated recruits into national heroes or risk being killed by the government.
Astronaut: The Best features procedurally generated characters with hidden personality traits, unpredictable missions, and a blend of procedural and branching narrative structures. Players must prepare their astronauts to perform for the nation on sensationalist TV programs and in the tabloids to win glory or face deadly consequences. The game also features mystic rituals, supernatural charms, and a metaverse-spanning mystery.
The game promises to be unique and challenging, combining management, occultism, and humor. With its procedurally generated characters and unpredictable missions, players will have to adapt and strategize to succeed in the game.
Astronaut: The Best is available for wishlisting on Steam, where you can also check out the game's demo and experience the thrill of the space race with a twist.
