Me, Me, Me, Myself And I | The Alters (Sci-Fi Base Builder Survival - Demo) 

The Alters is a brilliantly bonkers game where we find ourselves stranded on an alien world and we have to survive with help from our crew, who are all... us! Our colleagues are versions of us from an alternate timeline, where our paths branched at a certain point.
Our main character, Jan, finds himself stuck on the alien world but he does at least have a very exciting round wheel-like base to call home. We do some basic work on the base to fix up a few things, build a kitchen, add a workshop, that kind of thing.
We also pop out onto the surface to harvest materials to help us survive. We use metal for building things, organic matter to craft stuff and of course we need food to eat.
However when things go wrong it becomes apparent that Jan isn't able to fix things. He's not an engineer, he can't repair the ship's engines, but there is a solution... using some new substance called Rapidium, which we find down on the planet, we can use some quantum computing shenaniganery to 'grow' a version of ourselves from an alternate reality!
This new Jan took a different path in his life and is an excellent engineer, if a little gruff and grumpy. But now we have to look after him as he comes to terms with his new existence, so we have to try to bond... with ourselves...
NOTE: This is the demo version of the game.

STRANDED BUT NOT ALONE
Jan Dolski is a simple worker who faces impossible odds. Crash-landing on a distant planet, stranded and alone, he seems trapped with no way out. Jan’s only hope for survival is to employ additional helping hands on board his mobile base… but how? Improvising as he goes, Jan uses the local Rapidium substance to create alternate versions of himself: THE ALTERS.
Have you wondered how your life would change if you chose a different path in the past? Who would you become? Jan Dolski is about to face answers to these questions which makes the predicament he is in even more daunting. Each one of his alters has a different personality and background as his life path is a result of a specific change in Jan’s life.
To return home, Jan must not only get along with his alters but also face some crucial choices he made in the past. The decisions he will make based on that can occasionally put someone’s life at risk. The question is - are you ready to deal with the consequences of these choices?
A RACE AGAINST TIME
The planet Jan has landed on is slowly turning its face towards a giant sun. This means that radiation levels can quickly reach a critical level. Survival on this unforgiving planet is a death race, so the base Jan lives in must remain on the move. This, of course, is far easier said than done. The planet is highly inhospitable and filled with many difficult obstacles our Jan will have to overcome.
To move across barren landscapes you need food, fuel, and other precious resources. Luckily, your base is ready to extract them from the surface of the planet. The only problem is that finding these required resources might prove quite challenging… and the time to do so is running out.
