About Red Horizon

✦ AI summary

Red Horizon is an addictive wave-based space shooter that blends classic arcade action with modern rogue-like elements to keep every run feeling fresh and unpredictable. Build your ship's strength by collecting powerful items that fundamentally change your playstyle as you battle through enemy waves toward a final boss confrontation.

Red Horizon is an addictive, wave based, space shoot 'em up game. Heavily influenced by the classics of the past, Red Horizon takes a modern spin on the genre combining it with some subtle Rogue-like elements to provide players with a unique experience every time they play.

Hop on board the Red Horizon and shoot your way through numerous waves of different enemies, eventually facing the final boss. Build up strength along your journey by finding items which will not only give you a power up but change the way you play. Just remember to choose wisely!

Note from the Developer



I made the Red Horizon whilst travelling to/from work on the train for a number of months. As of right now, the game is small in length but feature complete. With your support, I would love to evolve the game by adding:
  • More items
  • More bosses
  • More enemies
  • More ships

I would also really appreciate any feedback you have in the Steam reviews, or by sending an email to the support contact.

Thanks for reading!

✦ AI summary

This game is viewed as an underdeveloped proof of concept with significant issues that hold it back from being enjoyable. Players consistently complain about slow pacing, poor controls (particularly janky ship rotation and weak aiming), unfavorable RNG, and forgettable music, though one review praises its strategic depth and atmosphere in an alternate WWII setting. While the game is playable and some enjoy the tactical elements and faction variety, most agree that even as a free title it feels thin on content and lacks the polish needed for a compelling experience.

https://youtu.be/mEiFwjX9W2I More of proof of concept than a full game experience, even as a free title there only a thin amount of gameplay.

lmao it has tank controls and game speed is fps-dependent (apparently I was playing nightmare difficulty, thanks dev. cap fps you goof), even if the game design weren't hot garbage this is bad Also I have a paid license which makes the fact that this is free now more annoying

The pace of the game is unreasonably slow. This kind of entertainment should be more energetic, and the music should be more memorable and vibrant.

Игра "Red Horizon" - это захватывающая стратегия в реальном времени, переносящая игрока в альтернативную версию Второй мировой войны. Сюжет, хоть и содержит элементы фантастики, цепляет своей мрачностью и показывает конфликт с неожиданных сторон. Уникальные фракции, каждая со своим стилем игры и технологическим древом, добавляют глубины и реиграбельности. Графика, конечно, не самая современная, но визуальный стиль выдержан и создает атмосферу технологического прогресса в условиях тотальной войны. Звуковое сопровождение на высоте - эпичная музыка и реалистичные звуки техники погружают в происходящее. Геймплей требует тактического мышления и умения быстро адаптироваться к ситуации на поле боя. Единственный минус - иногда баланс между фракциями кажется немного смещенным, но это компенсируется разнообразием стратегий и юнитов. В целом, "Red Horizon" - достойная игра для любителей RTS, предлагающая интересный сеттинг, глубокий геймплей и атмосферную подачу. Рекомендую к ознакомлению.

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
