Indie game developer Hypnotic Ants, with publishers Games Incubator and PlayWay, have launched a special co-op playtest for Ship Graveyard Simulator 2. Basically, they are setting up new content to be added to the game sometime next year, and this is their way of working out the kinks ahead of time. All you have to do to participate is go to the Steam page, scroll down to request access to the Playtest, and wait for them to let you in. After that, you and a friend can work together to rebuild and refurbish ships from scratch that are just sitting on shore doing nothing. We have the finer details of the Playtest for you here.
