Markus "Notch" Persson has finally revealed early footage of his next game. While it's very, very early, it does show some of what he's attempting with the lighting engine, as well as show his character bouncing around a ship and interacting with computers. This is the first big piece of news we've heard since the game's initial announcement, where Persson described it as a ship game where, "Each ship has a generator capable of producing a fixed wattage, and everything you connect to it drains wattage. A cloaking field, for example, might require almost all the power from the generator, forcing you to turn off all computers and dim all lights in order to successfully cloak."
Don't judge it too harshly. This isn't the next game from Mojang, but, as I understand it, Persson's next personal project. The plan is to release it in an early state and then offer updates to early adopters for free, just like he did with Minecraft.
