** A group calling themselves "Derelict Games" have added onto the game by modifying the source code itself.
** An "Officially Unofficial Version 1.7" has been released and a bugfix patch afterwords titled 1.7.1. The latest release is 1.08.1. The group has a roadmap on their website detailing the direction they wish to take the game, though as of 2016 the group appears to be inactive.
** A final update- version 1.09 - was pushed out by the group in 2018 before officially disbanding. However, with that move they uploaded their code to [=GitLab=] so aspiring modders can fork the mod and continue their legacy.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The unofficial patch by Derelict games converts the game's tone to this. The villain is switched out from "Pirate Megafleet" to "Malevolent Dictator of the Galaxy and his (extremely large) army", it turns your security guards murderous (kills civilians who break down into a tantrum instead of just incapacitating them, no questions asked), and introduces raiders who try to trick you into letting them approach your base. Also, lots of gratuitous body horror in the text description.

** "DF-9" is a triple pun: not only does it reference the fact that the game was inspired by "StarTrek Deep Space Nine" and "VideoGame/DwarfFortress", but it's also an abbreviation of the name of the development company ("Double Fine").

* FutureFoodIsArtificial: Played straight and subverted. The straight examples come from food replicators that change matter into mediocre food, while the subverted examples come from the option to grow organic food on board your station for serving in pubs.

''Spacebase DF-9'' is a ''VideoGame/DwarfFortress''-esque sci-fi SpaceManagementGame by Creator/DoubleFine. Originally conceived as a prototype during the company's 2012 Amnesia Fortnight, this standalone version, released on {{Steam}}'s Early Access program in mid-October 2013, expands on the prototype in ways such as an isometric perspective, more detailed character sprites, more environmental hazards and so on.

* SpaceStation: The game is all about building a working (Though somewhat doomed) space station with a large number of alien individuals as citizens, and numerous random disasters that you as the player have to deal with.

* LostColony: Derelicts--empty bases that show up nearby occasionally--which may or may not contain hostile lifeforms hell-bent on attacking any security staff you send their way.

** One possible hazard involves a resident complaining about feeling pregnant ([[MisterSeahorse regardless of gender]]), after which [[{{Film/Alien}} an aggressive alien parasite suddenly bursts out of them]]. In the same vein, one possible name for a resident includes the name Ripley.
