I know there are a lot of gamers in the Hatrack Community, so I figured I would share this gem with you all. In the Kerbal Space Program (KSP) You basically build a rocket out of various components and then try to fly it into orbit. At the moment there are no actual goals, just have fun building a rocket and trying to put yourself into various orbits. There are also a lot of modded parts already created by the community, which can be fun to play with. Also, if you even have a tiny bit of programming experience it is easy enough to mod all the components in the game. Here is the URL, also it is free at this point in alpha.
Too lazy to switch to my Windows partition, but it looks neat.

Hey, cool! I'll be sure to check this out when I get back home to my PC. I'm making a game about building spaceships myself. It'll be interesting to see how KSP has approached the idea.
