100 More Games In Steam’s Immediate Future, Including Space Minecraft

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 100 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! But before we dive in:

Note: Being Greenlit means that a game has been approved for distribution on Steam by the community. It doesn’t guarantee a release — projects may be abandoned, crowdfunding campaigns may fail, developers may disappear. Greenlit games are merely guaranteed a spot on the Steam store, provided they manage to reach a playable state.
