Oh believe me we do. The announcement was delayed bc we had to icebox a very cool alt history Cold War turn based platoon on platoon combat game bc the core loop wasnโt actually fun.
A few weeks ago we made a joke about eventually becoming a video game publisher.
We werenโt entirely joking.
What started as a small internal project has grown into something weโre actually going to release.
To that end the dev team is breaking off a separate company as a game studio. @AltHorizonGames
After years of rumors Antelope Hill secretly owns this or that company we have an official affiliate.
AHP will be the publisher and hopefully the resources and experience from this process with Alt-Horizon will lead to the concentration of knowledge and talent to publish games from other solo devs and studios in the scene.
As for the game itself. Itโs still under wraps, but weโre close enough now that we need some outside eyes on it.
Weโre looking for a small group, roughly 5โ10 people, to join a private playtest group. If you can put in a couple hours a week playing builds, finding whatโs broken, and giving us straight feedback on what works and what doesnโt, we want to hear from you.
As we cultivate a testing group we plan on making it into one of the resources we can offer devs to publish with us alongside marketing, engine and asset license funding, store front access and more.
What youโll get in return for joining the team:
โข A free copy of the game when it launchesโจโข A free ebook from the store every month while youโre on the teamโจโข Early access to development buildsโจโข Direct access to us if you ever want feedback on your own game or projectโจโข Real QA experience on a shipped indie titleโจโข If we end up doing more of this and can professionalize, the people who helped us get the first one out the door will be the first ones we call.
This is new ground for us. Weโd rather build it with people from this side of things than try to do it with strangers.
If youโre interested, DM @AltHorizonGames with:
Your gaming tastesโจWhat platforms you play on (mobile included)โจAny QA, modding, game dev, or community experience you have (not required)
Canโt wait to show you what weโve been working on.
If you are a Dev seeking a publisher for your own project reach out directly to us.
