About

Astra turns your living room into a spacecraft for a cosmic voyage. You navigate planets and shadowed moons, collecting data to solve the puzzle of extraterrestrial life.

Movement and interaction feel natural in VR, whether scanning alien soil or piecing together fragmented memories. Created by Eliza McNitt, known for Spheres, and voiced by Taylour Paige, the game blends emotional depth with technical polish. Its use of mixed reality makes celestial landscapes feel tangible, from icy satellites to gas giants. While short, the experience lingers, player forums note its haunting score and quiet moments of wonder. Astra doesn’t just simulate space travel, it makes you feel the vast questions it raises.
