"By popular demand, Astronaut: The Best now has a Day Restart option. Through a unique roguelite narrative, each playthrough contains endless surprises, some with wacky (or deadly) consequences for the astronauts. With the Day Restart option, fans of the narrative adventure can have more control over how the game's unexpected twists and turns impact their roster of astronauts. Five new metagame Challenges, ranging from straightforward difficulty spikes to real hardcore sicko stuff, are now available! For your hard work, gain bonus metagame rewards like items and uniforms. This content update also introduces friendlier metagame progression, which makes reaching new missions, Challenges, and other roguelite metagame unlocks more approachable."

Astronaut: The Best New Challenges

  • Blind Date: Astronauts start with none of their traits revealed. What weird quirks could they be hiding, and could they sabotage your mission?

  • Nabobs of Negativity: Televised judges have a higher difficulty. It's a tough crowd out there!

  • Same Name Game: All astronauts have the same name, which cannot be changed.

  • Super Accountant Mode: The HUD does not track your resources; you must do so manually. Grab that pen and paper!

  • Alternative Schooling: You cannot train astronauts. Good luck!
