Have any bros given this a shot? If so, does it have anything new or interesting to set it apart from all of the MoO clones that are out there right now?

i did try it myself but found the interface too annoying to play further.. like ships being separated into 4 hull sizes and queuing ships consisting of you having to cycle through all the models in a given hull size before being able to add it.

I really don't feel like Iceberg has much involvement in the games they publish.

The first time I played Horizon, a recently released space 4X strategy game by L3O Interactive and Iceberg Interactive, was about seven months ago, on July 2013, when the game got on Steam Early Access as Alpha. By then I wrote an alpha preview and wrapped my appreciation with this sentiment “while certainly playable, and enjoyable to some extent, Horizon still seems far from a finished product, as not unexpected for an Alpha.”. Well, I’m afraid to say that my sentiment didn’t change after playing and reviewing the release version now, and what was before an expected sentiment for an Alpha version is now totally unexpected, and unacceptable, for a released product. Horizon is clearly still very far from a complete, polished and enjoyable game

I've had this on my wishlist for a bit. Reviews aren't too flattering, but has anyone on codex given it a go?

I'dlike to know too , reviews arent good and the lack of discussion about it is a very bad omen.
