Let's see if anybody knows this one.

Yeah, the edge of field; not even a building or a road around. LIke, did a dev have a treehouse out there? The mind boggles.

Maybe it's just unused stuff that was left on the files? Most Sonic games on the Mega Drive have level "blocks" outside playfield/bounds that can be accessed by enabling the debug code.

That's reasonable. What weighs against is buildings & furnishings like the truck 'n' guns are imported by *.mis files; they're not part of the map like this. Exceptions are the buildings for London and Paris (although no furnishings like guns and balloons) and a well-known pair of easter-eggs. And it's in the middle of this unusual big forest in Kent - the dark-green of the in-game nav map attached. The rest of the countryside is CFS's (in)famous repeating rural texture with occasional urban. Although you can't spot this group unless you're down low and watching the horizon for imperfections, that unusual big green forest draws attention from all altitudes So it really does come off like it's someone's little joke.
And yup - I flew the game obsessively before and especially after discovering that. Never found anything else like it.
Don't want to hold up the line, so a not-really-small hint: Ghosts 'N Goblins remake.
NEw Age Warrior vs the skeeltons?

I've never heard of that one, but this ain't it.
Another hint (might be giving it away, but on the other hand, maybe not):
It's a DOS game not (yet) on MobyGames, same developer as Sila's Quest.
Traced it from there: Last Knight from Island Dream Software

Bingo. A fairly strong hint, but it's dragged on long enough.
I suppose yes.
Here is a new challenge:

Strongly reminds me of Star control (3?) but doesn't look exactly like it
The light black screams "MAC GAME!" to me

20 bucks there's an alternative music band named after that 🤣
The image depicts a commercial Windows Game, developed in the period of 1997..2003. There was/is a demo version available too. The company behind it is still making computer games (one of these is also about top down space battle), but they scrapped this one from their store since.

Time is up... The game was Asteroid Miner from Positech.
I will put up an easier one for you all to guess:

That's easier indeed 😀 Alien legacy
I tried making it harder by not showing the voxel 3D view of the exploration mode. But you guessed it already anyways. Congratulations!

Status on the right was enough for anyone having seen it even once!
Ok then, sticking to my usual approach of not trying to make people's life hard but rather attempting to re-surface some games I've enjoyed in the past. Btw, this screenshot originates from an actual 2-player game that, after all these years, we enjoyed sooo much once more!
Probably solvable in secs, but still its name posted here is what I am after anyways. I did make the obvious just a little bit harder by hiding the status bar. Maybe seconds will turn into minutes this way 😁

[edit:] AKA 'World Class Soccer'
Yeap, I was expecting this. Basically this is what this post was all about (see my "declaration" above)
Sorry but no, you're extremely close to it though. Even the same scoring techniques/tricks apply. I'm sure I'm missing some cooperation/devs exchange here because really the gameplay is more than similar
