L3O Horizon Game

http://www.horizongame.com/images/h1-dlc-announce.jpg Thursday September 28, 2023 We are excited to announce that the Horizon Deluxe pack which we had been working on alongside the previously released Summer Update is now ready and will be available next week. The new pack remasters all the ships a...

September 22, 2023 v1.0.2.150 An important update to fix a couple of issues: Crash Fix * Fixed a bug introduced in the last patch that could cause a hard crash in late game. Turn Events * Fixed a notification issue where a Unit on receiving Fighters would link to the wrong taskforce name. A.I. Colon...

September 8, 2023 v1.0.2.149 We have another quick update that we wanted to push live before the upcoming add-on pack. We hope you enjoy it. New Achievements * Added Terraforming achievements * Added Conquest, Alliance and Galactic.Council Victory achievements based on various difficulty levels Reso...

Thanks Martok! @Anguille - The new achievements are now live with today's update 1.0.2.149 along with some other things. Half the work was doing all the localizations but it was a good idea, thanks. Had to make it a separate update so it's available to all (no requirement to own the upcoming dlc pac...

Hi Anguille,

Thanks. The second part will be an addon-on pack (DLC) on things requested prior. I hadn't considered adding new achievements but if you have any suggestions on what achievements would be fun to have I'll see if I can include some.

http://www.horizongame.com/images/h1-updated.jpg Monday August 28, 2023 Some of you may be asking why an update now? Over the years some features were requested many times while some bugs, minor ones may be but that nonetheless came to our attention. And while we have been very busy working on the ...

Horizon 2 is well and alive. Sorry for the long radio silence. It's taking longer but I'm working on it regularly, testing, bug fixing, and improving various systems. It's a big project as you know so it's been very challenging to complete it but we're getting there surely. I hope everyone is doing ...

Thank you for checking in, as always I appreciate it... I'll give an update soon after the holidays, in the meantime I wish you all a happy new year for 2022 and I hope you all are doing well!

With the exception of the GPU, everything is newly bought and is the best I could do with a 3rd world wage and absurd exchange rates. Don't hold back for me but please be nice and include me in the low end of graphic settings. That's a fine CPU for gaming and the rest should meet or surpass the min...

We currently have Spiral Galaxy shapes with it being configurable between 2 to 8 arms. The more arms selected will result into a more circular and evenly spaced cluster of stars. The generator is completely procedural so there is nearly infinite possibilities with stars placement (including faction ...

Fully agreed. I've come to really appreciate that.

So if i understand you press a button and the game plays the next track on the list. I'll have to check this out.

I don't think we will be able to do Espionage and Covert stuff until after release, possibly in an expansion. So that will have to wait post-launch.

That's great that you were able to get a physical copy of the game. I also have the boxes and physical manuals for all those games except IG2. A different but awesome era of gaming, I don't know that we will ever be able to make a physical box again for our new games but it would be cool to do a phy...

Oh yes! They have been an integral part of the game from the initial design and one of my favorite things to add. There is so much more I plan to do with them but this is something that will keep evolving.

I'm a big believer in modding support (Horizon 1 had extensive modding capabilities including writing quests for it and the documentation with examples) but the reality is for most strategy games unless it has a huge community there won't be enough modding to make use of the effort involved to add s...

The Horizon 1 manual is about 50 pages or so LINK . I would be interested to know how many people who got the game read it and if they found it helpful. I wrote it and I wouldn't mind if someone did a better job at writing it. ;) But it's meant to be an introduction, easy to understand and not get t...

Definitely, I agree Music and Audio can add a lot to a game. I actually met with a couple of well-known composers very early on (one of them orchestrated the music for Bloodborne on PS4, and had also worked on some major movie titles). I think it would be awesome to work with them but there are also...

Just wondering how you intend to make the galaxy feel "alive". Distant Worlds did a very good job there with plenty of civilian units flying around (similar to Imperium galactica 1) and space monsters etc). So what is your take? I did touch on this a bit in the Trade Topic , but yes you w...

Just wanted to update the news sections of the website, in case we get new/old visitors.

You'll definitely be at the front-line for testing Horizon 2 as soon as I am ready to use the feedback properly. By the way, we've been using the the Epic launcher for 7 years, since Unreal Engine (which we are using for the development of Horizon 2) was actually the first app on it. My games/apps l...
