Neocrisis: We had the pleasure of getting a interview with Marek Rosa, CEO & Creative Director, about Miner Wars Arena.
GameSpy: "Let me clear up some understandable confusion: Keen Software has been working on space combat game Miner Wars 2081 for quite a while, and what I've played of it is very promising. But that's not the arcade shooter we have before us today, Miner Wars Arena, which entertained me for an hour at best -- and without any online multiplayer options or even a leaderboard, it was the first of several very lonely hours."
Bundle in a box - Deep Space gives you a variety of great independent games at the amazing price of...well, whatever you please. Don't miss a chance to grab some literally "out of this world" bargains.
Miner Wars 2081 is an ambitious upcoming project from Keen Software House, incorporating a first-person action survival space simulator with single player, co-op, and multiplayer support with a fully destructible and persistent open world. It’s currently using the Minecraft model in which you can prepurchase the alpha, with an MMO version in the works to follow up the “classical” flavor. It’s got a pretty wild wishlist of features, and it sounds absolutely awesome.
