Wild Horizon or how the game maker's dream is realized in practice

A long monologue about how I painted the Wild West. History through the eyes of a designer.





The beginning of a long journey ...

Background

Max, 25 years old, a designer by training. A person who loves to draw very much finds beauty in the environment, and also climbs along some logical path in his opinion. He goes to work, and in his free time is engaged in his favorite hobby - the development (of his strange, spontaneous thoughts) games. Actually, this is what will be discussed.

There are many ideas for the future of the project - from the attack of the Indians on the settlement, ending with individual missions on the frontier.





Conclusion

Each of us has our own dream. Small or large, sometimes even impossible. For us, my opinion, the meaning of every dream is to strive to move forward, gain valuable experience, and discover new boundaries.





At the moment, our project has just been released, temporary problems are possible, we make updates every day, fix bugs, introduce new mechanics and bring our dream closer to reality.





Thank you for your attention, see you soon!
