- Planet Crafter: A game about terraforming barren planets. Early stages resemble Subnautica in that you're just trying to cling to life in a hostile environment, but as you secure supplies of food and water and make the atmosphere breathable, the game slowly transforms into something more akin to Satisfactory where you set up automated, efficient production and logistics for terraforming machinery.
- The X-COM Files: A mod of the original 1994 X-Com that acts as a prequel, inspired by media like The X-Files and Men In Black. You start off dealing with cult activity and individual monster attacks, only able to send in two agents armed with pistols and tasers, then gradually build up to X-Com starting tech by the end of the game. You'll never be so glad to see the Skyranger and standard X-COM rifle.
