Note that the below screenshots are from the pre-alpha stage of HORIZONS. They are using the graphics, UI schemes, textures, and objects that are prototyped for the game, and are in no way finalized. While they reflect the overall concept and 'feel' behind HORIZONS, changes may be made that could greatly modify the visual end-result.
