Space Engineers

Keen Software House | Early Access 2013

Space Engineers is a sandbox game about engineering, construction, exploration and survival in space and on planets. Players build space ships, space stations, planetary outposts of various sizes and uses (civil and military), pilot ships and travel through space to explore planets and gather resources to survive. Featuring both creative and survival modes, there is no limit to what can be built, utilized and explored. Space Engineers features a realistic, volumetric-based physics engine: everything in the game can be assembled, disassembled, damaged and destroyed. The game can be played either in single or multiplayer modes.

Update 01.068 has been released: Camera zoom, Damage effect for blocks, tool shaking and more.

Posted by MinerWars on Feb 5th, 2015

Blocks now have particle effect when they are damaged either by shooting or drilling. The effect is visible when the damage is below the red line and it differs according to the type of block that is damaged (armor blocks do not have any effects).

Also, we implemented camera zoom – by using the mouse wheel while in camera mode. Additionally, tool shaking has been added to world settings (enabled by default for new worlds, disabled in existing worlds). This can enable the shake when grinders or drills are used. This shake is also applied on the object that is being ground.
