Dear Horse Fable community,

After over a decade of building, dreaming, debugging, pixel-perfect tweaking, and late-night brainstorming sessions, it’s time for a new chapter. 

I’ve officially sold Horse Fable to Curly.

Over the next week, we’ll be transitioning all of the technical and backend pieces, including the server, domain, databases, and accounts, into her name. This means there may be some downtime or slower responses as we work through the handoff. Please bear with us during this transition.

A Bittersweet Goodbye

If you’ve followed Horse Fable’s journey over the years, you know this project has been a huge part of my life. It started as a passion project and grew into a full-fledged game with a loyal, creative, and sometimes chaotic (in the best way) community. It has definitely had its ups and downs, but it will always hold a place in my heart.

This decision wasn’t made lightly, and it’s bittersweet. Many of you called it – I needed to let go of Horse Fable. I wasn’t ready at the time, but I’ve now accepted that this chapter has come to an end for me. 

Curly and I have worked closely together over the years to bring the best game possible. Looking back over the years, it was a fun time building this world for you all. When all the drama went down earlier this summer, it may seem like we weren’t on the best of terms, but that’s not true. We always had the mutual goal of creating the best horse game on the market.

I want to be crystal clear: I only want what’s best for this game.

And I truly believe Curly is the right person to take Horse Fable into the future. She has the experience, the love for the game, and the community’s trust. She’s been a huge part of the HoFa team for a long time, and I’m confident she’ll give it the care and leadership it needs moving forward.

What’s Next?

Over the next few days, we’ll be:

• Moving hosting and server access to Curly’s accounts
• Transferring ownership of domains, emails, art assets, and IP
• Reorganizing payment systems and billing platforms
• Ensuring all tools are fully operational in the new setup
   

You may notice temporary delays or some downtime, but the goal is to keep disruption minimal and keep the game safe and secure during the transition.

Final Thoughts

To the players, artists, mods, testers— thank you. Horse Fable wouldn’t be what it is today without your contributions, feedback, and support. It’s been an incredible journey.

While I’ll be stepping away from the game itself, I’ll always cheer for its success from afar. I want nothing more than to see it thrive and evolve under Curly’s direction.

So here’s to the next adventure… for Horse Fable, and for all of us.

With appreciation and nostalgia,

Bedouin
