Windward Horizon is Now AI Content Free
I'm happy to share a big update with you all: [h3]Windward Horizon is now completely free of AI-generated content.
[/h3]
In the early stages of development, I used AI-generated portraits as temporary stand-ins to help speed things along. They were never meant to be permanent, but they gave me something to work with while focusing on building the rest of the game.
Thanks to your feedback and honest conversations, I made the call to fully remove all AI-generated artwork from the game.
Every character portrait has now been replaced with hand-painted illustrations, created by a professional artist I personally commissioned for the project.
Daniel Rivaldi, before and after:
El Mitrini before and after:
Rafael before and after:
Rowdy before and after:
This new artwork gives Windward Horizon a much stronger identity and feels more in line with the world I’ve been building.
Thank you to everyone who spoke up and shared their thoughts. Your feedback continues to help me shape the game into something better. I appreciate the support more than I can say.
Look forward to what I have planned on the Horizon (hehe).
See you on the seas,
