Ctrl Alt Ego is one of the most freeform games in the genre. Set in a very 60s/70s British sci-fi future made of cheap plastic and exposed electronics, you're a ghost conciousness hopping between robot bodies.

Very physics-driven with MANY solutions to each problem. Huge replay value. Sequel in dev

Night time in PROT.
Day Night cycle is "real time" in the sense that it continues even when you're not playing the game.

Each version of Unity is like a pet cat: you have to live with it for a while to discover its idiosyncracies. It was only after a few hours I found that little Unity 6 had a major issue with crapping on physics performance. #unity3d

PROT must build and fuel a rocket ship in order to save Cass's family stranded across various moons. Gather resources, solve puzzles and interact with various quirky inhabitants of the moons, deciding what to bring with you on your adventure!

Few have visited Cat island. But of those few, all agree, it does look somewhat like a cat. #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #unity3d #cats

In PROT finding the family's precious items is part of the discovery. You can recycle the items for resources IF YOU WANT. #prot #unity3 #gamedev #unitydev #indiedev

Although visuals aren't the "main thing" in PROT, trying to add some atmosphere with (hand-rolled) volumetric lighting.
Do follow on Steam!
