Games where you fix a broken spaceship

Recommendations by MathBrush

A lot of games are about being in a broken spaceship and having to fix it. Here's a list! Some games don't really fit, or only have a few parts involving fixing a ship. I left a lot out where you woke up in a ship and then sabotaged it or explored it without fixing it. If you think of any to add or some that should be taken off, let me know!

A game that would be on here (but I don't want its inclusion spoiling its game page since it's a spoiler for the game) is the rabbit-based game
