Keen Software House & Miner Wars development team releases a new alpha video of their current build. The team also announces some really exciting news for people that would like to join the miner wars community.
The new alpha video shows the physics present in the game and it also shows the feature called Solar Wind. Solar wind is basically a wall of fire originating from the sun that will destroy almost everything in its path. Please notice how far the ship was dragged from its original location by the Solar Wind. The barrels have disappeared all together since they have no thrusters to compensate for the Solar Wind drag.
Furthermore we have added some new features for our community. Anyone participating on the game development will get some goodies in game and eventually they can attain a free copy of the game and exclusive look at unreleased game content. Some of our community members have already started working towards helping the game and are already receiving medals for game contribution achievements.
Our community is quite a lively place and we would like to invite anyone to come and have a look at http://www.minerwars.com/Forum.aspx
We are still looking for people to help us with game content creation. Modellers, programmers, community management people and people that will help with the game promotion.
