An extremely fun sandbox space-heist game that will have you embark on audacious missions, form ingenious plans, and then scramble to improvise when you inevitably mess up. You're given a variety of seemingly overpowered tools, all of which interact with the level in some interesting way. Guard has a bullet-deflecting energy shield? Hack the shield and make it deflect THEIR bullets back to THEM. Heavy-armored enemy in your way with no weapon to pierce it? Lure them into a glitch trap that teleports them out of the ship! Backed into a corner with only a glass window behind you? You know what to do. Smash that window, and remote-control your ship to catch you as you hurtle through space! It's the type of game you can tell crazy stories about after you stop playing, and that's the gold standard for these systematic games imo.

well-oiled roguelike machine, an actual masterpiece of indie games
