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.

Happy New Year Space Engineers! Update 01.063 has been released. Programmable block has been added!

Posted by on

Happy New Year Space Engineers! Our first update of this year includes a very special and highly anticipated feature. Programmable block (aka “in-game programming”) has been added! The block is fully programmable within the game’s environment and world. Programming is now an integral part of the gameplay (this is not modding – that has been added a few months earlier).

Programmable block can access other blocks in a grid or through antennas, open and close doors, lit on the lights, and more. Ownership determines what can be accessed. This is a first prototype, just to get it to your hands and get real feedback from you. More options and improvements will be implemented in the future.
