Re: When can we expect some news?

Great to hear! (I'll admit the extended period of silence had me a little worried...)

Like Anguille, I'm keeping my fingers crossed we might get to see something in the (hopefully) not-too-distant future! :D

Re: When can we expect some news?

It's a new year, and we haven't heard anything in a long time now.

Is Horizon 2 still being worked on? Is the project dead? (I hope not!)

Re: When can we expect some news?

Heh, Anguille beat me to it (I was going to ask this as well). :D I'm still checking in on a regular basis, just waiting/hoping to see where you're at with development!

Re: Music

Correct. You can click forward (or right arrow) to play the next track, or click back (left arrow) to play the previous track. It's one of those relatively small QoL features that can have an outsized impact on one's experience whilst playing a game.

Awesome! Leaders/characters can make a game so much more interesting & fun.

Re: Manual

Yeah, I don't imagine we'll ever see physical manuals make a comeback, but I do miss those days. I still have my manuals for Birth of the Federation and the 2000 Reach for the Stars remake/sequel. I *would* still have the manual for my original copy of Imperium Galactica II, if I hadn't lost it -- b...

Re: Galaxy generation

I'm also curious if we'll be able to choose things like galaxy richness (minerals, resources, etc.), the frequency of habitable planets (at least those that don't require expensive terraforming first), frequency of "NPC's", etc.

Re: Music

That's very good to hear. I long ago discovered that the right music/soundtrack can help a lot with a game's atmosphere/immersion factor. (For 4x games, Armada 2526, Birth of the Federation, WH40K: Gladius, and Stellaris are examples that have especially stood out for me.) Horizon 1's soundtrack is ...

Re: When can we expect some news?

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...

Re: Game PC System Specs

Thanks for the hardware recommendations! I'll definitely keep them in mind.

As a matter of fact, the upgrade/replacement probably won't happen until summertime, so hopefully supply issues will be better by then. :)

Re: When can we expect some news?

I was finally able to complete the update to the forums. The upgrade comes with many benefits including responsive web design. If you find any issues please let me know. We now also have a dedicated section for Horizon 2, with a section for main discussions and another for Design specific topics. H...
