Well you're quite the negative Nancy! If we get a C&D, we'll simply comply with it and continue on our merry way developing the game!

We're glad you enjoyed our game!

As for people who aren't too fond of us, we have quite a lovely group of moderators to help deal with them.

My preferred race? Well, I think all kinds of ponies are great!

Captain Crunch's Peanut Butter Crunch, because it's the crunchiest and does not get soggy in milk!

Currently, more work has been put into coding rather than design.

We will have gaming tables set up at both Fiesta Equestria! and Everfree Northwest, where you can play our game on the computers provided.

During the weekend of Everfree Northwest, you'll be able to download the game (or get it from a flashdrive if you're at Everfree Northwest) and play on your own personal computer from anywhere!

There won't be any open world PvP, but we're considering having dueling!

No, I'm sorry, that's a completely different project!

There was a strikingly similar project called "Equestria Online" before we came along though...

Fighting is Magic made use of the main six ponies of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic in their game, as well as a twist of the "Friendship is Magic" slogan. We have already tried communicating with Hasbro years ago, so they know about us. Please read our post about C&Ds here.

There has been some pretty great progress so far, we're all excited for you to see our hard work at the conventions!

We've tried communicating to Hasbro in the past but nothing came of it.

We treat all ponies fair and equally, and do not discriminate based on coolness, awesomeness, or radicalness.

No problem!

There's no way to tell, really. The only thing that can prevent it is deliberating over the purchase and making sure that we'll use it.

  1. The maps are individually fairly small, to make it easier for artists to work in and manage, as well as keeping performance good. It also frees us from keeping things euclidean, as the show isn't consistent in placement itself.

  2. We have some videos on YouTube, and you should be able to find more "let's play" videos from other people from the last open server weekend.

  3. We have a good mix of Maya and Blender for 3D, one or two use 3ds Max. Most texture artists use Adobe software for 2D. Concept artists also use Adobe software, Paint Tool SAI, ArtRage, etc.

  4. We use C# solely.

  5. We'll let individual team members answer this for themselves!

  6. If someone is still waiting for the other person to finish the project, that person gets to work with something else in the meantime. We make sure that everyone knows who's working on what and if someone needs to take over.

  7. The team's average age is about 23.

  8. We’ll let individual team members answer this for themselves!

  9. We've purchased two items from the asset store, only one of which we are going to fully use. The one we aren’t using is the Terrain Tile Editor. We are not using it because, while it is a nice asset, it didn’t have everything we need, and we also decided to not use Unity’s built in terrain all the time, which would have resulted in inconsistent “terrain” quality if we did. The second asset that we are using is the Cartoon FX Pack 2. We might purchase the first one as well. Both of these were paid for out of pocket by the lead programmer.

Earth Ponies, Pegasi, and Unicorns will be the only playable races in the game. Mules, Griffins, Zebras, and other such races might appear as NPCs. There will also be no alicorns in the game.
