Miner Wars 2081 is a 6DOF action-survival space-shooter simulation-game set in the year 2081, 10 years after the destruction of all planetary objects in the Solar System.
You operate an advanced mining ship in a fully destructible and open-world environment, which remains persistent as you complete missions or play online with others. Realism and survival are key aspects of gameplay. Inventory and the way you use resources such as fuel, ammunition, oxygen, ore, and weapons are important when surrounded by dozens of warring factions.
The gameplay is driven by an epic story and offers a choice of single player, co-op, and death-match multi-player.
The story will introduce you to many types of missions: rescue, exploration, revenge, base defense, theft, transportation, stealth, search and destroy, pure harvesting, racing, or just flying around and destroying everything you see.

im downloading the test build from the website now hopefully it will work
I bought this game on desura and put my serial code in on the website but when i play this it says its in demo mode
Did you log in when you started the game?
Click profile and log in first
Controls are very nice and intuitive - 10/10. Graphics are great as well (Playing on Extreme settings, 1080x1920 on a 37" screen), combat and trading was also very easy.
Only downsides I found was that theres no guide on how to play the game - which is understandable since the game hasn't released yet, and that the game crashed whenever i tried to harvest an asteroid - to which i sent the developer his error log as the error message was well written and gave me his email address.
I will be purchasing this game, from my limited experience with it, it looks amazing.
is there a demo? 15€ is still a lot (even at 50% off) for an alpha without being able to try it first
demo (Public Build): Minerwars.com
thanks! gonna try it now :D
there is a demo at their website
I can't launch the game from desura because it says to not launch the .exe, but use the launcher instead. How do I link my launcher to the Desura link?
Redirected it to the launcher executable, should run fine now.
