Miner Wars is a video game featuring: Outer space First Person Shooter with a fully destructible environment, Single Player Story and is a Massive multi-player online game (MMO).

Miner Wars was released two weeks ago in its pre-alpha version and is still available at a 70% discount. We have allowed our fans to buy the game before it was even released this allowed them to save a lot of money on their purchase.

We have also gave our fans the possibility to contribute money to the development of the game. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all of the people who have contributed. Your help was much appreciated and will never be forgotten.

At the time of the release we had promised our fans that there would be frequent updates to the game.

So here is the next one of many!

A great new trailer by Audio Director Dan Wentz a former Descent developer.

Sandbox- In the current build we have "random" mode for sandbox. In the new build we have added more detail creating a more polished look. We have added large ships and small debris objects hidden in asteroids just to name a few. These additions to "random" mode will give the player a more epic feel to their space enviroment.

Level editor - Save and Load function has been added
