GraphicsAdder
A program that converts the Direct3D shaders of Outer Wilds to OpenGL as a first step to port it to other platforms. May be generalized to all Direct3D-exclusive games in the future. (by NoelTautges)

I've made some progress on OpenGL Outer Wilds (epilepsy warning, more details in comments)
I am also running up against my lack of Unity and shader expertise, especially regarding lighting. If anyone has worked with Unity and shaders before and wants to help, please shoot me a DM and I will contact you when I start working on this again! Thank you :)

So I got Outer Wilds working with OpenGL... kind of (disorientation warning, more details in comments)
Hop over to the GraphicsAdder project page and follow the instructions there!

Ripper for shaders or how fix them
No documentation, I got no clue if this one is working. Unity has a crosscompiler https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/HLSLcc, or you can also read this write-up and try out SlimShader (http://timjones.io/blog/archive/2015/09/02/parsing-direct3d-shader-bytecode).

So I got Outer Wilds working with OpenGL... kind of (disorientation warning, more details in comments)
Using the libraries AssetsTools.NET and uTinyRipper to deal with Unity asset bundles and HLSLcc and its wrapper HLSLccWrapper to convert the shaders themselves, I created a working prototype called GraphicsAdder that takes a Windows Steam installation of Outer Wilds and produces copies of its files that work with both Direct3D and OpenGL. By adding some flags to Launch Options in Properties, you can switch between the two at launch!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing GraphicsAdder and HLSLcc you can also consider the following projects:
AssetsTools.NET - Read and write unity assets/bundle files, based on https://github.com/SeriousCache/UABE
UtinyRipper - GUI and API library to work with Engine assets, serialized and bundle files
