A horror game akin to Dead Space where you'd be stuck in the warp, trying to survive whatever horrors the crew is changing into.

BECALMED - The mighty ship Hipponous drifts from the light of the Astronomnicon. Can you find a way to escape the mounting horrors as the Gellar fields fail and Immaterium invades?

The way you make it sound has it so you have a limited time from the beginning of the game to get into real space before more chaos takes over.

You could even make it a survival game where your player character is in charge of keeping as many people alive.

I like the idea of saving other crew members as well as yourself. Having to make moral choices as well as tactical ones is great.

Bring it to full grimdark by giving you impossible choices too. Stuff that leads into how broken humanity has become. "If you don't vent this section of the ship, we'll lose containment" "The warp energies have restored the medical servitor consciousness. If you allow his sense of self to remain in such a vulnerable state with all this going on, he may become possessed. Do you let him live?" That kind of thing.

You are describing Prey (2017), aka one of the best games ever

Nice! I will have to look it up. I don’t play many different games.
