As always in capitalism, video games have largely deformed from an art form into just another means to generate profit for large corporations

    Minecraft

    Terraria

    Astrox Imperium (this is a single player version of EvE Online, so definitely not for everyone)

    Dyson Sphere Program

    Factorio

    UFO:AI (admittedly this is a FOSS XCOM game that started as a clone of XCOM Apocalypse, and morphed into something bigger)

    All developed by either a single person, or tiny teams with basically no start up capital. I’m sure I can find more, since the FOSS list of games is enormous.

    Labor develops society. Capital enshittifies society.
