Aurora is a 4X (eXpand, eXplore, eXploit, and eXterminate) science fiction strategy game. Players develop their interstellar empire from the humble beginnings on their homeworld to conquer the universe, or be pummeled into the ashes of history by opposing races.
Some say it has the graphical charm of an income tax assistant software from the late nineties, but a playing depth that more than rivals any commercial 4X game. Aurora is different because it places emphasis on fleet operations and detailed tactical combat.
The game is under constant development and there is an active and friendly player community in the game’s forum that will help you with any question or problem you might encounter.

Depths of Boatmurdered is a free top-down horror game inspired by the infamous Let’s Play of Dwarf Fortress, Boatmurdered. The game is 2 hours long and follows a lost dwarf who stumbles upon the terrible ruins of Boatmurdered. However, you can play through just fine without any knowledge of the Let’s Play! Depths of Boatmurdered only very vaguely adheres to the original layout of the fortress from the Let’s Play. It also largely ignores established Dwarf Fortress lore.

Towns brings a fresh new take on the citybuilding/management genre by introducing many RPG features. Drawing inspiration from games such as Diablo, Dungeon Keeper and Dwarf Fortress, the game has you managing a settlement on top of an active dungeon. Instead of playing the hero who delves deep into the dungeon, how about playing the town that houses and caters to the hero’s needs? Both the RPG and strategic aspects will be fleshed out over a series of sprawling dungeons. Craft unique weapons, obtain randomized loot and build a settlement capable of holding back the forces that come up from the depths!
