Getting Hands-On With Space Engineers – A New 2014 Space Odyssey – Leviathyn

Space Engineers – at first glance you might be tempted to say “Look, it’s Minecraft in space!” And I suppose in a way it is, but it’s so much more fun! From the threat of suffocating in your spacesuit to crashing your lovingly-crafted ship into an asteroid (or another person like I did), there’s so much to do already in the title, even though it’s only in early access on Steam. Space Engineers is the latest project by Keen House Software, and it’s a “sandbox space game all about engineering, construction and maintenance of space works”. What you build is really up to you, and it really is like Minecraft in space.
