Here’s a thing. Valvetime have picked up on a couple of showreels from a certain Mr Horsfield, who apparently left Valve this year. He worked on the destructable stuff in some of the company’s recent games, like the beginning of Portal 2 and the bridge in Episode II.
You’ll notice some impressive tech there, not least some wicked swarm stuff, but there’s an emphasis on space that’s apparently something to do with Valve’s unconfirmed title “SOB”. Â Don’t be put off by the Half Life HUD, though – unless of course… Â No, it couldn’t be.

Just additions to the source code that runs must of Valve’s FP games…

videos of stuff getting destroyed, my favourite kind. ^_^
i wonder how Valve’s physics based gameplay would work for an outer space setting.
