Zachtronics founder Zach Barth discussed failed attempts to create Star Trek and other licensed sci-fi games, including pitches for Warhammer 40,000 and Seth MacFarlane's The Orville that fell through due to licensing complexity and costs. The studio ultimately created U.V.S. Nirmana, an original puzzle game, after Star Trek's licensing team insisted on using the animated series The Lower Decks rather than The Next Generation as the setting.
