Progress update, Screenshots with temporary/placeholder art

We need your help! Code is coming along nicely and we want to have Early Access/Alpha testing underway in a month. We need your help to do this- so please be sure to visit our Goal Store  and see if anything interests you. Our goal is to raise $5,000 in the next four weeks. This would enable us to work full time on it and acquire our much needed User Interface (“UI” buttons, backgrounds, etc..) artwork.

Below are some screenshots and brief updates.

Many of the minimum functionalities are complete! All of the user interface art is temporary place holders (stats will look better, and color descriptions are for debugging purposes)

Minimal game features are much like the original Virtual Horse Ranch features.  The basic game-play part will work on tablets and possibly phones as well. Unfortunately, Unity 5 (our game engine) is not handling the 3D world well on tablets- and we went all out on improving the generated world, so riding horses around the 3D world will not be available at launch for handheld devices.

Simulated Events

Simulated Events are underway as well. Again, the artwork is placeholder art.

We are scratching real-time based aging and updating horses in your stable. Now we are doing it as we do it in the web game- Turns! This allows users to control time at their own pace.

Go Riding

The world is expansive, and also coming together well. Progress on multi-player here is going good too. Unfortunately, this feature will not be available for tablets right away.

So much code! A lot of code is complete for both server side and client side. We still have a lot more gaps to fill in.

Code, Code, Code

So much code! This game requires both delicate client side code and server side code.

  2. I can’t wait! I know I’ve said that a million times already lol. It’ll be great actually having a realistic horse game to work with, especially for those who can’t afford a horse of their own.

    I’m trying SO hard to be patient, I really am 😉

    Keep up the updates please!

  3. I bought early access and a sponsor for it. Will we be notified via email or through VHR forums when BETA is up?

  4. What will we be able to do when the game is finished? (:
    And will there be horse racing, where you can ride (as jockey) yourself?
