Bumpy's Space Engineers Show Case - Ep. 1 - Welcome To Space!
5The point of the Show Case is to literally show off the creations of myself, and those I play with make. For now, that's Splootch and I. This will be a semi-occasional video series, with an LP to follow soon.
I've been holding onto this game for a while. I've already spent several hours, probably days in it and it's a lot of fun. So what is Space Engineers? Most survival games are based in woods, jungles, forests, and set back in a more primitive time or with Zombies. This game focuses on a more futuristic approach and a bit further up the tech tree. You are Space Engineers. Obviously you are in space and you engineer stuff. DUH. It's an open ended sandbox game with VERY active developers and an amazing amount of possibilities. Seriously, I can't praise the Devs of the game enough, Keen Software House is amazing.
There's 2 modes available to play, Survival and Creative. If you want to just create, have fun with all the building blocks available to you, then go for it. You can mirror your crafting to build two or 3x as fast, you can even copy and paste your creations. If you want to survive, want to make everything by hand, block by block, mining the materials you need, refining them and then assembling them into the parts you need for your creations, Space Engineers has that too. No matter how you choose to play, you will lose hours of your life in this amazing game and hopefully come up with some amazing creations!
My thanks to all the hard work and amazing progress that Keen Software House has done with Space Engineers. If you want a development team to support, and a game to get behind, this is it! Check out more info and where to get it in the links below:
