Terratech

Terratech is  the lovechild of Minecraft, Spore and World of Tanks. Classed as an 'exploration and combat' game, you play as a company prospecting for resources on alien worlds after the population and pollution of Earth have gone out of control. 

Featuring a modular system that allows you to build your own vehicles from scavenged parts and minerals and ores mined from the world, you can create some weird and wonderful contraptions. You can also buy blueprints and research new technologies to build up your arsenal of vehicles. It is great fun to play, with an almost addictive compulsion to carry on searching for more items to expand your vehicle, but also with risk of losing everything if an enemy vehicle shoots you to pieces.

The worlds are all procedurally generated and with almost limitless customisation of vehicles, the ambition of Payload Studios seems to be boundless.
