I would just look through any number of online list of “Best Swarm Survivors”. There’s dozens of different themes and tweaks from the VS formula, including boat and train varieties! I also watch the YouTube channel Never Nathaniel as he’s a pretty awesome source of both info and entertainment on the matter (as well as other games). He’s literally the only streamer I’ve watched and I couldn’t tell you why, his formula just works.
Many roguelites could fall into this category, and are generally cheap to boot (i.e. vampire survivors).
What messages? I don’t see any reporting on what the allegations actually are outside of “inappropriate behavior” and “emails were leaked” but with no context.
