Well, if you wanna get technical, it’s not really space Minecraft. It’s more of a sci-fi sandbox RPG thing. But it’s pretty darn close.
Apart from phr00t’s Space Minecraft 3089 there’s a whole bunch of other quirky and interesting titles in Steam’s latest batch of nearly one hundred community-approved Greenlight games. There’s a shoot-em-up starring cats mining for milk under the ocean. A retro game which explores what happens to game characters slated for deletion. A ridiculously-named soccer game where the teams bomb each others’ brains out. There’s even an archery game that is very much reminiscent of the ever-frustrating QWOP. Quite the haul!
