I've previously had a rather in depth preview article about City of Steam, which is a browser based F2P MMO that features a cool looking steampunk setting, complete with a huge gear-shaped world and mechanical dwarves.
Here are some highlights of the game from Andrew Woodruff of Mechanist Games:
Key Features:
While not all of these will be perfectly working during this sneak peek we hope they will be apparent for future tests and give a taste as to what’s to come.
-Graphics! Sets a new audiovisual standard for browser gaming
-Lightweight! Play from any computer without bulky client installation
-Big World, Tiny Footprint! Intricate, immersive scenes take up mere megabytes
-Gameplay! Hardcore or casual, ten minutes or ten hours
-Teamwork! Go it alone or adventure with friends
-Flavor! Even the smallest detail is suffused with the history of an ancient world
-Customization! Augment weaponry with visible components
-Abilities! Each class wields a unique array of stunning combat effects

Why City of Steam:
A New Epoch in Browser Gaming

Visuals that scale to any configuration
- Environmental effects, real-time shadows, and positional audio sources immerse players with even modest hardware in a new world.
The sneak peek event will begin on February 28 and is planned to run for two weeks. More information about the event can be found by visiting the official site here.
The 20 keys that have been given to Light Speed Gaming will be distributed like this:
- 10 keys will be handed out to the first person that replies to my Twitter tweets. I'll write a tweet saying that the first person to reply to this will get a key for the sneak peek, and whoever replies to that tweet first will get a key.
- 10 keys will be handed out based on comments on my posts here on the blog. Have a look through the posts here on Light Speed Gaming. Find your favorite post and write a comment where you explain why this is your favorite post. I'm not demanding an essay or anything, but please be a little more eloquent than "I lik diz cuz I luv Star Wars, KEYPLZLUL!".
Please end your comment with "CoS Sneak Peek Key" so I know you're interested in a key.
I'm looking forward to joining the key winners for a steamy bout of MMO preview goodness from February 28.
