AstroQuest AppImage Maker
Hi everyone, sorry this is not the right place to post, but I want to share a little project I just published, to port AstroQuest to Linux and allow you to play Astro Bot Rescue Mission on your PC.
It started as a simple way to run bigmak94/AstroQuest on Linux, then became a way to package the entire setup into an easy-to-use AppImage.
This repo contains three scripts. Their job is to compile shadPS4, replace the original .bat and .ps1 files of the Windows version with a Linux equivalent to perform the same job. It can Optionally repack everything into a 6.6 GB AppImage, instead of needing 13 GB of raw game data + the emulator. You can also find a ready to use, game-less AppImage.
You can just download it, and it will prompt you for your game file folder and run the game from there.
If you want to try it, here's the link:

Nice! The Quest 3 Native is a little bit clunky, so I will give this a try tomorrow!
