The Miner Wars Website now offers a Miner Wars trailer by audio director Dan Wentz, a former Descent developer, along with details on the new Alpha version of the space combat game for pre-purchase customers. The new build adds save and load functions to the level editor and a new Sandbox mode, described like so: "In the current build we have 'random' mode for sandbox. In the new build we have added more detail creating a more polished look. We have added large ships and small debris objects hidden in asteroids just to name a few. These additions to 'random' mode will give the player a more epic feel to their space environment."
