With so few 4X titles going turn-based these days Horizon is a great hope to bring back the good old &#8220;one-more-turn&#8221; feeling, that we like so much.<\/p>\n<p>The devs announced in their forums that they&#8217;re committed to <em>&#8220;put the development of Horizon back on track&#8221;<\/em>. They plan to increase the L3O team and for that they&#8217;ve also announced that they&#8217;re looking to\u00a0<em>&#8220;add a couple of experienced game developers to the team<\/em>&#8220;. They&#8217;re looking for a game programmer and a 3D artist. If you&#8217;re interested in joining the team you can contact them <a  href=\"http:\/\/www.l3o.com\/horizon\/about-us\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding <em>&#8220;when the game will be ready&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0L3O&#8217;s team made a tentative release date to before the end of 2012.<\/p>\n<p>To know (almost) everything about Horizon I invite you to read a small <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/2010\/08\/horizon-a-new-turn-based-space-strategy-game-under-development\/\" target=\"_blank\">preview<\/a> we did some time ago presenting Horizon&#8217;s features and inspirations, and an\u00a0<a  title=\"Interview with Horizon Producer - 4X Strategy Game\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spacesector.com\/blog\/2010\/08\/interview-with-horizon-designer-and-producer-raffi-parsekhian\/\" target=\"_blank\">interview<\/a> we did with Horizon&#8217;s designer and producer Raffi Parsekhian.
