    Introduction Last Horizon is a space action/exploration game where it’s your job to save the human race! Earth has somehow been destroyed and you and your ship are all that’s left. Your job is to find another, hospitable planet and re-establish the human race there. Along the way you’ll need to stop on barren planets to collect fuel as well as collect life from other planets to terraform your new home. Perhaps you’ll even find some other survivors along the way.

    I was torn on whether to give a positive or negative vote to this game. While I did have good fun, it only lasted for the hour or so it took me to complete the first 4 maps, which are pretty similar to each other. The other 2 hours of gameplay were from trying over and over, and repeatedly failing, to complete the game's fifth and last map, which is absolutely frustrating. The difficulty curve in this game is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up you might as well call it non-existent. The first level is a bit hard…

    A nice little exploration game. Hop from planet to planet, avoid obstacles, gather reasources, and reach the objective. It's simple, straightforward, requires a bit of skill and finesse but is very calming. It's a great game for sitting back and relaxing. There's not a vast quantity of content, and is probably good for a couple of hours total here and there. That said, the sub-$5 price tag is just right, I think the $4 I spent was a good deal.

    Last Horizon is a graceful 2D arcade game with gentle resource management strategy. It's simple and repetitive, but in a way that's compulsive - like the better arcade games of the 80s. As you head to your new home, you consume fuel, oxygen and (if you keep bashing into things) hull integrity. To replace these resources, you find a planet and land on it anywhere safe. But the planet's resources are finite and allocated at random, so you might not be able to fill all three things to the top.…

    The game's screenshots look beautiful. However, there is an engine bug that happened somewhere in 2016, and devs cannot fix it. The game currently looks like this on launch : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1103393861 Quoting the dev : "Hey all, some bad news on this... looks like it's caused by the actual engine we are using (GameMaker) and we have no control over it... and getting them to address things like this is highly unlikely unless it affects all games made with…

I really sucked at the game which didnt help the cause. In the game you somehow manage to be the last human or well robot thing left and then you have to make your way to other planets sucking them of resources. There are also terraformed planets in which you can suck all their resources and watch that planet crumble too.…

    Thank you to the devs for sending me this game! First off I would like to say I like the concept and art style. The music is very calming and the concept is very intuitive. The gameplay is fairly good, but I could not seem to figure out how to properly land the ship without making it go on fire... which made this game very difficult. Would be more fun and easier if there was a better way to land (unless I missed something). 6/10

    Last Horizon is a fun if brief space exploration game with some very fun uses of gravity. Your world has been destroyed and you need to move to a new planet hopefully picking up life forms, other surviving humans, and avoid hostile aliens along the way. Unfortunately your fragile ship doesnt have the fuel or oxygen to do so and your forced to make many pit stops on random planets along the way. All have different gravitational pulls so landing can frequently be a bit hair raising especially…

Leaving a dying planet as the last survivor, the player needs to find it's way to a new habitable planet, to start a new colony and a new civilization. Along the way the player will need to pay attention to several aspects, in particular to the fuel and the oxygen levels. Of course there will be also other dangers that range from asteroids to hostile civilizations. In order to survive the player will have to find planets…

    A very basic game, asteroids has more complicated controls. You are a little ship that can only thrust, turn left and turn right, nothing else at all. The game itself consists of leaving a dead world and colonizing a new world which is one particular planet you must reach at the end of the level. Your ship has fuel, oxygen and a hull. If any of these get to 0 you die, you can replenish these by landing on planets with the right materials where most planets have all three in at least small…

    It's so annoying to land safely on the planets, just the slightest tap on the planet, BOOM...game over. what's most frustrating I managed to land safely on several planets but it only takes one slight aggressive tap forward or you hitting a mountain on a planet due to not being able to slow down and maneuver around it.

    Last Horizon feels like an incomplete game/experiment but is not marked as such. I had trouble getting the resolution to work correctly. At first the game was a fullscreen window where almost everything was cut off and in the corner, I later discovered you can press "F" to switch the game to fullscreen. Since the part of the menu that shows the keys was cutoff I had to discover this by trial and error. There is no other way to set the resolution if it doesn't set correctly. Unfortunately the…

    Very cool little game, calming music (which is very welcome at times), neat art style. A simple theme which turns out can be quite tough. Random moments can easily mess up a whole game. During the last game I played on my stream tonight a comet clipped me as I took off and sent me spinning into a black hole. I havea feeling a lot more time will be thrown at this both onpc and on my phone.

    Summary: Not worth the pricing without discount. Game is short and 'simple' where you fly from/to planets to get resources until you reach the last planet. However 'simple' is a relative term, for me, it is simple to learn/play and nightmarish to survive as I progress in the game. Overall, for a price less than a cup of tea, then yes, thumbs up as it is fun while it lasted. Pros: +Dirt cheap during sales +Simple game play with a linear goal (go from A to Z and don't die) to get anyone start…

    Well. Since i couldnt make screenshot function work i guess i'll write mini review. It is a simple and short game but fun at the same time. Also i said simple though it's rather hard due to landing mechanics. It's very tricky to land without damaging your ship especially when you're in a hurry to get that precious air/you're being attacked by purple aliens/or you're just simply being baked by beautiful sun that is way too close to your place of landing. Overall you can master that skill with…

    Interesting and unique game! The main premise is carefully landing on planets as hop spots to get to another inhabitable planet. Your new "home". Along the way you collect resources to bring to the new planet. It has interesting physics related to space travel and gravity that take some getting used to. I will definitely be playing more of this game. It's sort of a cross between cosmochoria and lunar lander - with it's own little thing going on. Enjoy my first impressions in this video:…

    As another review said, first level is challenging because you don't know how the game works, then three levels of easy casual. This took me about ~30 minutes to beat. And then the last level is a exercise in frustration. It's not hard, it's annoying and a massive difficulty spike. You can end up in a situation where the random planet generation doesn't give you any planets to land on so you die with no way out (happened several times). You can land on the final destination, only to be blown…

    I wanted to enjoy this but it just gave me frustration to the point of giving up. Maybe the first level could have been more peaceful to introduce people to the game, or shorter, I don't know. Being repeatedly killed by hard-to see black holes, errant rocks or other disasters is not a good time if you're not invested in the game.

    I played Lander (1990) back in the day. In it, you had to careful land your lunar module based on a number of factors and limited by fuel. Last Horizon is basically the same game except you pilot a ship through space and you land and take off a bunch of times. Unfortunately, the landings suck compared to those in Lander. They're about dodging moons and the approach to the planet, not about aligning yourself to the ground and carefully managing your velocities. With the core gameplay lacking,…

Even after successfully landing several times, I can still mess up landing. After a few more tries, I got the gist of the game and I can say the game is fun. It's simple (minimalistic to quote) and offers varying difficulty in terms of how the game progress and actually performing tasks in the game. Yes, it is easy to say you…

There is a distinct feeling of exploration within an open world, despite having a linear destination.

    Last Horizon is a basic demo/game attempt bashed out very quickly and lazily by Pixeljam, using the garbage quality GameMaker construction kit. It's a basic hybrid SpaceWar!/Moon Lander game with a couple of basic stats (oxygen/fuel). Gameplay consists of flying around and and landing on planetoids in a Moon Lander style. This is a godawful non-game that was pumped out by the "developers" to see how quickly they could dump a cash grab into game bundles and onto Steam. There's little in…

You hop across the solar system from planet to planet, having to land on each to refuel, repair, and pick up ecosystems for your future home planet. Along the way, you dodge meteors, black holes, space debris, and other oddities. You don't have any weapons, so the gameplay is all avoidance…

It's calming and restful and relaxing and still gives me a feeling of accomplishment when I land my ship on the final planet with all five goals set.

    The concept of this game is great. I picked up on what I needed to do very quickly and blazed through all the levels except the last one. Which is exactly my problem with this game. The learning curve is almost non-existent, the majority of the game is straight forward until you get to the last level which is nearly impossible. I feel like there is potential here for a great game, but it's either too short or doesn't ramp up in difficulty enough.

    Artsy and very creative. Good as a proof of concept as there isn't much gameplay (~30 min.). The mechanics are not well tuned (like playing bumper cars trying to land your ship). Fun as a brief diversion if you liked Solar 2 (that game where you became a black hole) but only worth $1-$2 due to the veryyyy short gameplay. Rated 3 out of 5 planets.

    Its a decent game. Collecting all the ecosystems, landing on planets, trying to get the max score. The story is also pretty good. I'm mostly saying recommended because of its cheap price. Sometimes I'm annoyed by how easy it is to die and it usually feeling out of your control. Once you've played enough and got use to the mechanics of landing and turning the only way you can die is just ending up in a situation you can't avoid. Sometimes I'll be navigating around after already collecting…
