I'm practically in a pool now with all the drooling I've been doing over this game since I discovered this thread. August is good news!
Hi James, we haven't started any beta testing yet, but at the moment our plans are to do it internally or with a professional testing service. Will let you know if we opt for opening to fans. Thanks for volunteering anyways !
^^ minus the 2 hehe Excuse the bad photo, I'm stood in a queue for a flight and don't want to lose my space so I had to zoom in
I don't believe anyone really brought it up, but regarding the fuel tank, will we have to get gas like Top Gear? I always loved that feature. Will laps be varied as well? I see in every screenshot, a race is always three laps.
Yeah, the game will have gallons of gasoline but we aren't planning to add gas stations to avoid breaking the game fast-paced flow. About the length of the races, yes, it will vary Let me use this last lines of my response to ask you to follow us at our Playfield page. We will get a free booth and accomodation for Gamescom if we manage to stay amongst the 3 most voted games: http://playfield.io/gamescom/leaderboard Thanks for your support!
Chase H.Q. was always my favorite game of this style. The pursuing and smashing into cars really added a lot of excitement to the game. Have you thought about adding this element?
Interviewing veteran composer Barry Leitch (Part II). A new profession: Game Composer After 30 years making music, and over 240 games in his portfolio, our dear Horizon Chase composer Barry Leitch has many stories to tell. In this interview he gives some thoughts about the evolution of his profession, including hurdles and advices, good and bad practices.
Brasilia track! Brasilia, Capital of Brasil, a city projected to receive the best modern architecture! With huge open spaces giving a strong sense of freedom. Shaped roughly like a giant bird or airplane, #Brasilia was to become the city of the future. It was built in three years, from 1957 to 1960, in the middle of nowhere, high on a windswept plateau. Also, it is the home town of our backgrounds artist Janderson, do you want a ride? Tomorrow is the last day to participate in the Playfield's "popularity" contest to get a booth to showcase Horizon Chase at Gamescom. If you want to support us (please please do!), you will only have to follow our profile page or/and like our posts (clicking the "I'd play this button"). It will be a great opportunity for us to show the game to the players and press. We're in third place now!.
Hi JesusFabre, as always, thanks for posting these great screenshots and developer stories of Horizon Chase. I would love to see an August release, but i understand, a good developer wants to fine-tune their work and get all the kinks worked out and have a great release.
A new screenshot was posted of Horizon Chase recently. Man, that night skyline looks fantastic. I can't wait to play this on my new iPod touch. Via http://horizonchase.tumblr.com/
Found a newly posted Horizon Chase gameplay teaser on their blog today. I can't wait to jump in the drivers seat and play this. Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Via http://horizonchase.tumblr.com/
