fur tufts

they. are. terrible. (on mlp ponies)
What's wrong? Don't like being reminded ponies are covered in fur?
Except they're not
It's referred to as a "hair coat", not "fur".

Yes they are.
But horses (or ponies) don't have giant tufts of fur on their chests like cats and dogs.
I don't mind it so long as they're really short tufts. The massive fluffy tufts you sometimes see just makes me feel like they're part pony and part Persian cat.
Unrelated, anyone thinking of grabbing that Elements of Harmony "Official Guidebook" thing? I'm not sure if I'll ever actually buy a copy, but it sure looks neat.

This is not ponies, but something that Chuck requested me to draw for the PonyGAF community.
Many of you will get it, some may not.

I love it so much! <3 Thanks again
This is fantastic.
Oh goodness... I... don't even know what to say.

I want to, but I haven't had a chance to grab any other issues lately.

It's not as good as the Rarity Micro, but it's a fun story.
I think most of us can agree that 3>1>2. So how does this compare to 1?

I liked 1 and 2. They weren't great, but I don't regret buying them. I'd say the FS micro is better than 1 and 2.

Best pony will always be Rarity, my favorite episode is Suited for Success and I'm working on a fangame currently.
I look forward to having fun here.

That the same fake owl from the opening of Labyrinth?

Welcome! Things are a little quiet right now, but I hope you enjoy your time here just the same.
Grabbing the Fluttershy micro on my phone now. It's Fluttershy after all; how bad could it be?

Working on a fan-game... it's a 2D platformer called "Pinkie Pie's Perilous Platforms!". Pinkie Pie is the main character (obviously) and it was a general theme with Discord's return and so on, but there's been a lot of shakeups in development since I've been super-busy with college and other things.
This is the last trailer I worked on (back in July 2012)
and the demo I released (back in August 2012)
So far, things have gone okay but I'm slowly restarting development after running into quite a few personal issues. Hopefully, you have seen it somewhere (it was on EQD like 3 times) since the earlier days had me marketing like a pro.
I hope you like it!
Thanks, I hope to have fun here!
I remember your game, I think. I definitely recognize that Pinkie Pie sprite, but the older platformer game I'm thinking of just had Pinkie Pie trying to get to the end of a stage, and it got progressively much harder a couple levels in. The end of the level markers were Mane6 ponies. It was from quite a while ago, like a year or two ago.
Anyway I just beat your demo. Was pretty fun, I like the chiptune (is that right?) music. The double jumping, wall jumping, and no taking damage from enemies were new elements but I got adjusted to those quickly. I think if you collide with parasprites they just fly away? Anyway, enjoy PonyGAF!
Also, you picked Rarity for best pony and that is the correct choice. Goddess pony.
Just quoting this to say, I stopped by the Crash Bandicoot thread in Gaming again a while ago and I totally agree with your ranking of the PSX Crash games. 2 was the best, for sure, and it was also my first. After seeing the recent LTTP for Crash Team Racing and the glowing comments for it in the Crash thread I'm wondering if CTR would hold up. I loved the hell out of it when I was young but it's been so long since then.
Pony rogues gallery! Sweet. And it has the Flim Flam Brothers, which I totally approve of.
That Rainbow Dash so good.

Just finished reading it. I liked it, haven't read #1 or #2 so I can't say how it stacks up to them, but it is not as good the Rarity issue. It's ultimately a very quiet story, but it does bring some new insight into Fluttershy's character. It's just hard having to be the follow-up to a Rarity story.
I can tell you right now, for my money CTR holds up amazingly well; there seriously hasn't been a single year since that game came out where I haven't played it on one platform or another. It's still a really fast, tight-controlling racer with tons of charm. If you've got the opportunity, definitely give it another go!

Yeah, the Pinkie Pie sprite is from Desktop Ponies (a whole lot of Pinkie platformers use it, so that explains quite enough), though I'm looking to get a new artist on board very soon so we can ditch the old and bring in a fresh look for the game's new aesthetic direction.
There's quite a lot that I've been planning lately (art, music, story, gameplay, etc.), so I'm hoping to use this summer to my advantage and get ahead in some areas, including story and assembling a formidable team.
That chiptune music is from the same guy who's working on the music for Fighting is Magic (RainbowCrash88) - I got his permission for it way back when Perilous Platforms was a school project (long story), and I figured that I'd need to get the game its own original stuff later down the line, so I've done away with it for the most part.
The enemies at that point in time were dummies, so I just made them alive but they would be seen as nuisances (much like how parasprites really act in the show). I think I put the hardest work in them since I had to fix their behaviors and re-work the sprites to work with Stencyl.
Finally, I recently got Mega Man X from the Wii U eShop and I've been studying the wall-slide and wall-jump mechanics since that was what it got compared to the most at the last BronyCon (Summer 2012) where I had set up a demo for people to play. I think that if I can nail them down well, it could open quite a lot of possibilities.
And yeah, Rarity was my favorite because my very first episode of MLP was Suited for Success.
Thanks again!
