The premise is cool but It runs hilariously badly. Worse than a DOS game on a 486. In fact, had this been coded for DOS it would have run faster. The 40 minutes of play time is me trying to play with the settings to make it run faster. If you think this would be a cool game for your linux system you're completely wrong. Don't bother.

About This Game
Astra Protocol 2 is a cassette futurism inspired space adventure where you must command a powerful space-faring craft on a search and rescue mission to uncover the mystery of the Astra Protocol.
Using text commands and a 1980s themed interface alongside an operations manual, players must control their space ship to navigate different celestial bodies and asteroids whilst avoiding hostile space craft to find any evidence of survivors.
PILOT the spaceship through use of the HELM module, setting engine and rudder levels, or harnessing the power of the intelligent bearing settings.
MONITOR the status of the spaceship through the ENGINEERING module and its highly detailed readouts.
SCAN planets and spacecraft, SEARCH for hostiles, DETECT distress beacons, and PROBE bodies of interest using the SCIENCE module and its multiple instruments.
DEFEND yourself using the ORDNANCE module, via homing torpedoes, mines, multi-functional lasers, and tweakable shields.
NAVIGATE through the hostile sectors of space using the NAVIGATION module, and its semi-intelligent autopilot and pathfinding systems.
You will need to utilise all of these modules to your advantage to have any hope of unravelling the meaning of the Astra Protocol.

This game can be a little bit frustrating to get into, but somehow is one of the most immersive games I’ve ever played. It’s all I’ve been able to think about for a week
