David Allen was the former designer of Horizons, who left the company to found Pharaoh Productions. He speaks at length about the game, as well as other things in this forum tidbit.
Here's a sample:
"HORIZONS is the first project that I have never finished, because I was not given a chance to do so – it was taken from me by those who wanted it. Understand that everything you see from Artifact today is based on what I built and put together, regardless of the result; so in reality given the fact that the two people running the company I originally hired, I have delivered and done my job. We wouldn’t be having this discussion nor would you be attempting to support a product known as HORIZONS if I didn’t build Artifact, raise the capital, and hire the people I did."
Juicy to say the least.
