Ahoy sky bandits! Let me begin by giving out a big thank-you to everyone who has pre-ordered the game and supports us in our endeavour to bring you the best Indie 3D Action Platformer in this galaxy and beyond. A special tip of the hat goes out to those who spread the word about the game. We're continuously developing and promoting the game, but we're just a small team, so any help from the community is appreciated.
We took one step today to get more people to try the game and we hope that we won't anger any of you who have already pre-ordered the game: we have released the downloadable application of the Preview build. Players will still need to pre-order the game to get access to Volcano Island, but gaming sites can host the files now, people can play it locally and share it with friends. This is something that - let's face it - is already happening to some extent, but we communicated this as a perk for users who pre-order. Therefore we hope that we don't disappoint anyone with this move, but we also need to use the few tools we have for promotion to maximum effect. We figured that the main incentive to pre-order is access to Volcano Island and the other perks that come with the Captain Edition - this will not be changed.
I didn't come to apologise completely empty handed though. I brought a new screenshot from the deeps of the second dungeon, enjoy:
Pirates are not the only ones who are after the treasures of New Horizons. Greedy corporations invade holy alien sites on their search for gold and more of the dark matter that allows objects to float in space. The dirty work is done by their sentry bots - robots that can walk on walls and shoot at anyone who offers resistance. As if aliens weren't enough trouble...
More media of new content that is in the works is coming soon! :) If you haven't played the Preview Version yet, you can find a Windows & Mac build in our downloads section.

hehe yarrr <3 Pirates :D
Looking really good so far. Love the cartoon style, and somehow it reminds me of OnePeace
I like the art style, definitely looks interesting! Also...
1. (I don't know if this is true for everyone, but...) Your link to piratesofnewhorizons.com is broken.
2. As I'm an audio designer I'm always interested in that part of the game. Would you mind posting a video clip w/ sound design included or perhaps the main title track?
Best of luck!
Thanks a bunch! To answer your questions:
1. piratesofnewhorizons.com is going to be the URL of our website. The website itself is not completed yet. So you are right - currently there is nothing to see there. I have removed the link for now to avoid further confusion, thanks for bringing it up.
2. The first video we release is definitely going to feature sounds and the main theme...which is a quite catchy track actually! ;) We would love to hear your opinion though! When the first video footage is going to be released is not decided yet, you'll hear it here first!
Very nice, I enjoyed the trailer! As for the music, I thought it fit quite well. Definitely good usage of the right samples to help compliment the art style and a catchy pirate-like melody.
Looks very good. Can't wait to see how it plays!
WOOOW! Looks amazing!
Looks very fun! Seems like it has a super mario galaxy/kingdom hearts feel to it.
thanks i was actually more thinking of psychonauts jak and daxter and windwaker personally !
The Psychonaughts & Jak & Daxter vibes are certainly there, looking forward to giving the prototype a go...
oke if the beta is cool then i'm gonna think of buying it
