Those of you who are old enough to remember the classic 80's game M.U.L.E. for the Atari & Commodore 64 will get a kick out of this.  Shrapnel Games has announced that it will publish Space HoRSE, a strategy game created by Gilligames and inspired by the classic game M.U.L.E.. Players undertake a mission to create a self-sufficient colony on a remote planet. They must use their holistic robotic slave engineer, or "HoRSE," to harvest the resources of their new planet--food, power, titanium, and zirconium--and build a successful colony.

Gawd I remember my parents playing M.U.L.E. when I was but a wee lad.  You can read more about it and see some screenshots over at GameSpot.
