What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This is a project created by a small team, and whilst we've play-tested it a ton, there's a limit to what we can manage! Getting it out there will allow us to get plenty of feedback, watch people play, and directly play against community members to get feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect a minimum of 6 months in order to allow our response to community feedback and the creation of enough new game content to warrant a full release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add more core mechanics and several more levels.

The VR player has only a single way to 'disrupt' the Screen Player. Plans here involve airlocks, energy barriers and sending patrols to block pathways.

The Screen Player has no way to change which ship they're flying. The plan is to allow them to use a 'holo-cloak' to change their ship, but we decided against creating and balancing multiple flight models before our first release.

We have direct plans around more levels and features, but we expect this list to grow after feedback from the community. And probably more from the next time we rewatch The Expanse.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“There is a single, complete, polished level with a single flyable ship. The single level has many ways to complete it, so should offer lots of replayability. There are limited core mechanics currently.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to release at a low price and increase that as more polish and content is added. Get in early for the best value!”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“ProjectorGames has built up quite a community over the last decade and a half, and we have an active streaming and Discord community. We often play directly with members of the community and have dropped in on streams to interact with people and solicit feedback directly.

About This Game

Join the Action in Astro Heist and Prove Yourself as a Covert Pilot or Skilled VR Watcher!

Pilot Player - Become a masterful pilot navigating bustling space outposts on daring heists. Maneuver through intricate structures, hidden areas, and challenging routes to collect valuable objectives scattered throughout the outpost, all while avoiding the watchful eye of the VR player.

VR Player - Take on the role of VR Watcher and use your keen eye to spot the sneaky saboteur. Send out police squads to search suspicious activity and activate security gates to set traps that trigger the alarm.

A New Perspective! Experience the visually stunning and stylized universe of Astro Heist, where arcade-style gameplay has you hurtling through a gigantic space outpost, maintaining your cover while completing challenging objectives. The VR player enjoys a diorama-style view into the world, allowing greater oversight of the outpost as they look around the tiny world.

Accessibility is a Top Priority! We've ensured that the VR aspect is 100% Gaze-controlled, making the game accessible to as many players as possible.

Asymmetric PvP Experience! The game is designed for 2 players, but with Steam's Remote Play Together feature, you only need one copy of the game for two players to connect from anywhere in the world or play locally on a single setup.

During Early Access, your feedback is essential to shape the game's future. Expect more levels, missions, and a wider range of vehicles in the full release. The Early Access version includes a single replayable mission and a single vehicle.

Prepare for thrilling heists, intense action, and an unforgettable experience in Astro Heist. Are you ready to embark on this daring mission?
