Laggy as Heck
Way too laggy, you cant hit the aliens at all.
Reviews for "The Next Horizon"
it was ok
the car was hard to get into though, and when i finally got in, i for some reason got out right after. The creatures were hard to hit and the tutorials didnt make much sense. It wasn't laggy though, the last guy's just an idiot. Overall, it was a so-so game
This could be an awesome game
I have a superfast processor and 4 gigs of Ram which I use to render massive graphics, and even on low quality the game acted like I was on a 386. I've never had this issue before. There's something in your actionscript that's making this otherwise awesome game way too laggy. It is unplayable in its current state. Good luck with it.
Also, I think you need to re-think the keys for getting in and out of vehicles. The down arrow just doesn't feel "right." I would also suggest using WASD for movement because it's a little awkward to use the arrow keys to move and the mouse to shoot.
Controls suck
How to ENTER the vehicle was not explained.

It was explained in the help section in both the main menu and the paused menu. Just use the scroll buttons to flip through different help sections. In there you'll find your explaination.
Question
What do you do on lvl.7???????
Sound-speakers busted
Studio323 responds:
Level 7 is the last level and the most difficult. The way to beat this level is to kill all of the enemies. When you first begin, climb the ladder on your left all the way to the top. Stay on this ledge and shoot the UFOs. Make sure the green aliens don't jump and get you. When the large UFOs with lasers come, jump, and you shouldn’t get hit. The last and most difficult enemy to kill is the robot mech. You might need to walk around and find a spot where they can’t jump. The center middle ladder is the best spot for this. Once you kill all of them, you beat the game! If you have trouble beating this level, try it with the strong armor cheat on.
I’m putting a lot more effort into the sequel. Yes, the sound is choppy in this one because the action script wasn’t done so well. The next game I’m going to add music and a whole new game engine from scratch. It’s taking awhile because I’m experimenting with a lot with different techniques to keep the frame rate from slowing up.
