Astra Logical :

November 12,  2024 - Los Angeles, CA - Astra Logical is waving their nerd flag proud as they announce that they have partnered with General Interactive to publish their latest title, The Diner at the End of the Galaxy.



The Diner at the End of the Galaxy is a diplomacy game masquerading as a diner management sim. 

Players transform an abandoned trading outpost on a desert planet into a hub for the galaxy's mercenaries, scheming nobles, smugglers, traders, adventurers, and all manner of patrons. Everyone's welcome - as long as they've got a few gobards to spend.

In The Diner at the End of the Galaxy, players grow exotic ingredients, create a menu that appeals to intergalactic palates, and discover treasure in the outer worlds. They can also influence the fate of the entire Nusa star system as the galaxy tries to recover from an apocalyptic war. The player’s cooking holds the key to influencing alliances and rivalries between powerful factions, all vying for supremacy. No big deal, no pressure.

“Of the dozen or so publishers we had discussions with about Diner, we were secretly hoping it’d be Astra Logical we’d end up with,” said Mark Fillion, Creative Director of General Interactive Co. “And like a direct-to-video romcom, that’s exactly what happened. Having Heather and her brilliant team partnering with us is a massive vote of confidence. They have a clear vision of publishing games that challenge players’ strategic, planning and management skills - a perfect fit for what we’re trying to achieve with our diner management slash base building slash diplomacy game.”

“We knew The Diner at the End of the Galaxy was the right fit for us because it’s rooted in strategy at every level,” said Heather Jackson, Managing Director of Astra Logical. “It’s about managing not just the moment-to-moment challenges but also thinking ahead and optimizing across shifts. The gameplay depth here is exceptional and perfect for fans of immersive strategy. And who doesn’t love Douglas Adams?”

The Diner at the End of the Galaxy will be available on PC and Xbox in Q2 2025. 
A press kit is available at astralogical.org/game-the-diner but fair warning, it might make you a little bit hungry.
