Hey there, fellow Abandonians! I just wanted to share with you some information on a game that I'm currently an alpha-tester on: Miner Wars 2081 (some of you may be familiar with it as Miner Wars) This game is a unique combination of Descent and an MMO. Not only does the game allow you to mine asteroids - which are fully destructible - you can also engage in combat with other miners, build bases, and form factions. The game will have a single-player/co-op campaign, the previously-mentioned MMO, a single-player sandbox, and an editor for making your own sharable space sectors!
Here's some gameplay footage I recorded while in-game:

For a full list of features, in-game footage and pictures, concept art, and more, go to their official website (http://www.minerwars.com).
EDIT: If you'd like to give me some credit in the Miner Wars community, please visit the main Miner Wars 2081 website via my Affiliate URL (http://www.minerwars.com/?aid=3252). All this will do is give me 'points', used for special perks (http://www.minerwars.com/Contests.aspx), for every unique visitor (in terms of URL used) that uses the link.
