With 2023 coming to an end, I wanted to seize the opportunity to recap what we have achieved this past year and what we are working towards in 2024. To make the message as short as possible, I will keep to bullet points:
In 2023 we managed the following:

• We tripled the member count for our lovely discord community (from around 350 members to more than 1100)
@Hammie not only introduced us to Beyond New Horizons on the open source StormX engine but even managed to get it to a beta state
@Mirsaneli significantly upgraded Maelstrom New Horizons in terms of features and quality of life improvements
• We managed to host 10 podcasts on our discord server with various creators in the pirate game community
• We managed to get the English translation for the Russian reconstruction OS mod rolling, allowing us to enjoy this awesome mod soon in English as well
• We reactivated our old community Youtube account, hit 1000+ subscribers...

New name for New Horizons Build 15

  • 7,894
  • 38
Work is underway on Build 15, and we are proud to share with you all that it will become a stand-alone release that no longer requires Pirates of the Caribbean to play. To emphasize this milestone in the development of New Horizons, we think it should be fitting to adopt a new title and drop the "Pirates of the Caribbean" title altogether.

Our modders have done some brainstorming to come up with suitable ideas, but now is your chance to help us choose the new title for our flagship mod!

Avast ye scoundrels, some shiny new pirate music has been spotted on the horizon! :keith

The original soundtrack from Buccaneers!, Skyward Digital’s pirate action RPG, has now been released on all major music streaming platforms for your listening pleasure.

Composed and recorded by long-time PiratesAhoy! member Christian Tornholm-Lehn (AKA @Flannery), the soundtrack features 20 tracks for a whole hour of classic piratey tunes. If you’re a fan of jaunty folk songs, epic cinematic scores or good ol’ sea shanties, this album has something for you!

If you fancy a preview to whet your appetite, you can listen to a selection of tracks for free right here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLimWF7OKH-c8ylvjO2fZ8H8JsN-QC_kF9

PotC & New Horizons Review by Imperial Third World Reich

A few months ago Anzei_Kazumi dropped by our discord server while making a review video of Pirates of the Caribbean and New Horizons. And now I am delighted to say that the video has been released. (Stock game's main story spoilers.)

The video took me way back when I first played the game. It is a long one but it's humorous, and has interesting facts through out, so it flowed really well for me.
Thank you for making this video and helping keeping the game alive. :cheers
