It hasnt got MP yet...... but its and alpha and they are adding mp in one of the next releases

Looks fun, and its available on steam as an early  access, the screen shots look good from actual players on the steam forums for the game.

I don't know much about this one yet but I'm seriously liking the look of it. Depending on how it develops it could become a new building creation game for dMw.

No, the "Free Weekends" games messed up the totals at the LAN.

If there is enough interest, then when the server files are released we can get one running.

Quite empty at the moment, there are weapons you can add to builds, but they are inoperable on the current build.

Turning off the giro's in a ship and setting it spinning is fun, as is then getting in another ship and ramming it, the first ship went spinning off into space to be lost forever.

Gyros will make the ship stabilise.

The things actually crumple, so you can have a fender bender and not be able to get out of the hatch because the metal has buckled in. Bit's of metal and components also fly off and spin around the area.

Guns and tools don't work at the moment, so it's just building and piloting.

Starting the number 2 area builds an asteroid mounted base and a couple of large ships, theres also a framework of a second ship just outside, you can go and flick that and it just spins off into space.

Also some quite fast moving fighters.

So quite restricted as the moment, but could be quite complex once guns and turrets come online.

And shutting down the engines on a large ship will stop the gravity and gyros from working.

Try getting out of a large ship whilst it's spinning.

If you smash up a ship and lose the control panel, just stick another on the ship somewhere and you can fly it again.
