Game: Rainbow Dash Attack

Sorry Adult Swim, I'm pretty sure this is a massive improvement over your version.  Dash just...fits.

I'm surprised it took so long to release something like this for her. 

You can find the game below!


(Resize the window for better performance)-GPT 
Rainbow Dash Attack

Also Desktop Trixie wouldn't gtfo so I just capped her with it!

And then a 9 year old beat all of you.

That's pretty hilarious; a few posts back you were telling us how awesome these desktop ponies are. Now they are in the way.

Kawa said...

Sure, Seth. Any excuse to post Trixie

@anon
it awesome when you just have luna wandering around, looking all lonesome, but you know she isnt, cuz she has you!

I know what you mean Seth, Derpy is just constantly getting in the way but... I don't mind :3

Oh man, why wasnt this made BEFORE?

Anonymous said...

the Rainbow Dash in this is really choppy. I hate to complain but the robot unicorn was reeeally smooth.

THIS IS AMAZING I get to make believe with Rainbow Dash

someone add better music and this would be awesome, RD needs heavy metal

Dave said...

Ehh...still a couple bugs with it. Can't get my usual high scores of 100K+

I'd rather ponies jumping instead of dolphins to keep true to FiM, and a couple more frames to RD's movement to make it flow smoother. The harp that plays when holding down the second jump is a nice touch, don't recall original RUA doing that.

Its kinda buggy, but still pretty good.

I've been waiting for this for such a loooong time!

finallly someonde did it why did it took so long??

So glitchy it's not even funny.

Narwhals' Bend said...

Well everything is 20% cooler with Dash...

James Corck said...

YES!
This is awesome!!! I had no problems playing it, though I have to say it was a tad slow for me. That made the game a bit easier which, while not challenging enough, was also not frustrating, making it quite fun.
And it has Rainbow Dash in it, so I loved it.

1: I do not like character animation, in particular during the flight
2: should be the other sounds and particularly to "sonic-rainboom"
3: route could be built from the clouds, or with different things
4: idea of taking a second version of this game and add more characters
----------------------------------------------
Despite these flaws I liked the idea of ​​working on it further and do not give up

Was kind of expecting a Eurobeat Brony remix as new BG music, but otherwise, this had to be done. :3

yeah it's a little buggy, but it's a step in the right direction

What would Freud say to your Trixie addiction?

Anyway great game. It was time.

@Anonymous
If I'm not mistaken, AS also made a heavy metal version of RUA. All that is needed is for the person who did this to mod that version the same way.

Fucking win. I knew someone was going to make this!


Also, e621 isn't the place where I'd picture this being.

Sethisto said...

If you resize the window down, its much smoother.

Mine was a choppy mess until cut it down to the actual robot unicorn games size.

stevie said...

20% cooler than robot unicorn attack.

Luna's Loins! That music is terrible, Its like getting ear raped by a cat.

fun game though

Narwhals' Bend said...

@Anonymous
Luna's loins? They're amazing.

MissingUsername said...

This brightened up my day.

Floofy Hoof said...

The only thing that could possibly make this any better would be if they changed the faeries to little gossamer-winged Raritys

As far as I'm concerned, my day is over at this point :)

BlackBlaze said...

I had this idea before and would tell it to anyone who would listen http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/2327920/

XDDD

Anonymous said...

I dunno, I still think the original is better. With robot unicorn attack, it was kinda like... Kinda like exactly the same as with ponies! At first I thought "Damn, what is that gay shit???" But after playing it for a while, I totally loved it and still do. You just can't top the original, besides, the sound quality is a little poor. And the HARMONY HARMOY OHHHHH LOVE is very important.
Yes. Still, it's a pretty cool idea, I like it, I just like the original better.

Needs improvements and other things to make it stand out.

Rainbow Dash exploding, as sad as it is, I still found it quite funny.

Lindil said...

This is what we waited for!

Dave said...

Did you just call Erasure's "Always" song equivalent to being ear raped by a cat?!

...Actually yes, likely on any other occasion that owuld hold true, BUT GODDAMN THIS SONG IS AMAZING FOR ROBOTIC UNICORNS OR RAINBOW PEGASI.

Anonymous said...

I'm gonna play the hay out of this game!

Anonymous said...

I tried playing it. When I heard the music I was like "Oh please". When I saw some environment with terrible combination of pink, I knew that I'll most likely leave this game soon. When I saw some poorly looking collectible fairies I was like "OH PLEASE!". When I hit the star, thinking that it's just a part of the background, and exploded in the process, I was like "No, seriously now...". When I realised that this game involves some impossible jumps at the very first level and died for the third time, I closed the game thinking "I bet someone can do it way better".

Sorry. Good idea, but execution requires a LOT of improvement.

The entire thing except for Rainbow Dash is a copy of another game. Impossible jumps? What are you smoking?

press x to Dash

My wish came true!

Anonymous said...

The game isn't working at all for me. Very glitchy.

Bluedow said...

Awesome! This is great.

Few flaws in it. The game should fit with Rainbow Dash's theme.

Music needs to be replaced.
Sound FX's could have their own way.
Instead of land terrain could use cloud terrain texture.
A new target for Dash to ram through.
Dolphins need to go or be replaced.
And a few teaks in the animation.

Besides that; I love playing this game.

ActionScripter9109 said...

This is awesome! A bit choppy, sure, and the transition to MLP elements could be more thorough, but it's a blast all the same!

Anonymous said...

YES YES AND MORE YES! This has been needed for a LONG TIME! This must be PERFECTED!

IMO the fairies should be parasprites :P

Onsokumaru said...

Very awesome but the music needs to be replaced, its super choppy and needs some fixing up.

Still very awesome.

Jorlem said...

Nice!

There are a few bugs, one time I dashed into one of those pedestal like bumps by accident, and ended up falling through the ground.

Also, the 'life' counter in the upper left corner needs to be changed to Rainbow Dash, instead of the robot unicorn. Otherwise, that was awesome.

beautiful, but re-do the jumping pic (it has a weird border around it) and re-import higher quality music. other than that, solid game all the way.

it would be cool if the music could be replaced with something from the show and if the purple platforms could be made to look like Cloudsdale

I can't believe that this game originated from a furry porn site.

A little rough around the edges but it's still fun to play.

Viking Elite said...

Very Good. Needs heavy polishing but for what it is now it really nice. Does this game dole out more points than Robot Unicorn Attack, or is this a GLORIOUS mind trick/ performance booster brought on by pony? Gameplay seems different.

i lol when i played this i keep getting lagging and finding a weird bug when i dash i fall on the pit when that happens good hack though :)

This is what I was imagining today while I was playing this today.

I swear to Celestia I'm better at this game when I'm playing as Dash. ._.

I love this game. I get not one, not two, but three shippable Dashies~<3
Look out, Trixie. Dash is having a three-way with herself!

Anonymous said...

The terrain should be replaced with clouds, the dash could use a sonic rainboom animation, and the music should be replaced with Guile's Theme.

frank davis said...

i have been waiting and its here!

Anonymous said...

What the hay does Guile's theme have to do with Dash? (Aside from some Youtube videos).

Anyway, great game, but DAMN is it choppy.

Anonymous said...

okay, since no one else will say it, i'm going to. why is this in the e621 domain name? the domain name for a PORN SITE?

Mami Tomoe said...

Finally! Dash rejoice!

Now we need a VS. mode with Robot Unicorn VS. Rainbow Dash. Would that be awesome if these two horses/ponies met?

Anonymous said...

Lag. Lag everywhere.

RefractedPegasus said...

It's a good start, but I think it needs a different song than that. Just doesn't fit Dash.

Someone suggested this one, and I agree: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsDuRRWdHA4

Robot Unicorn Attack was Awesome before, but of course, Rainbow Dash makes it 20% Cooler and she can Beat this Entire Level in 10 SECONDS FLAT!

Sheepdog said...

Typical Trixie, always hogging the limelight!

Kruger said...

The fact that this is on e621 makes sense, but is quite scary at the same time, you know, being a mostly yiff site and all.

Anonymous said...

It might've been more neat if it was more modified (We've generally seen Robot Unicorn Attack already, needs a bigger twist maybe), and if it were less buggy. I fell through a solid object in the game and died'd.

Anonymous said...

There was this hilarious fan-theory that the Robot Unicorn is Rainbow Dash's father. (The robot part is actually a Darth Vader-like life support suit). I mean, a 6-colored mane like that just has to be hereditary.

"Celestia never told you what happened to your father..."
"She told me enough! She told me you killed him!"
"No...I am your father."
"No! That's not true! "
"Search you feelings, you know it to be true."
"NOOOO!"

very well done a bit of polish and it would be near perfection, Seth is right just re-size window to increase performance, however you can re-size the window length wise and *cheat* by seeing more terrain

@Anonymous "okay, since no one else will say it, i'm going to. why is this in the e621 domain name? the domain name for a PORN SITE?"

e621 is not a porn site. It is a furry art archive. Yes, a lot of the content IS porn, but there is no rule, whatsoever, that every submission must be pornographic, cheesecake-y, questionable, or even furry.

e621 can actually be made 'safe' by creating an account, and placing the following text in your blacklist (located in my account, settings):

rating:e
rating:q

--the 'e' will stop all explicit artwwork from being displayed, and the 'q' will hide all questionable art (pinups, suggestive content, but no nudity or non-explicit nudity)

Anyway, about half the site welcomes our pony overlords. :)

if you want to check out this game on the site, go to: http://e621.net/post/show/135087/

rainbow dash makes this game at least 20% cooler

Who made this? I demand the source file so I can fix the horrible graphics.
It gets slightly messed up when I try to de-convert it... stop using copy-protection, darnit!
I don't have the time to crack the encryption...

oh bother, the adult swim site said "you're banned" i guess they don't take kindly to people trying to upload while using pony mods.

Thanks to everyone who liked this one, even if it was just a quick hack. I'm disappointed by the people complaining about the animation - it was good enough for the actual cartoon! (Well, the jump could have been better). @emil: there's no copy protection or encryption, you can find the hacked RBA and decompile it the same as I did. ;) I actually never did anything in flash before, so even this seemingly minor hack still took about 3 days, which was more than I had time to spend on it, but it was fun all the same. :)

For those asking for more - I just ran out of time. I did want the gameplay to stay true, though. The dolphins are the biggest crime of omission IMO, but I only used a demo of the flash compiler, so I can't do anything more anyway. I also found the way they assembled RUA's objects to be fairly complicated, but maybe that's normal for decompiled flash.

I didn't think about the high score stuff.. whoever originally released the flash left it in and I probably should have just deleted the buttons. I didn't think anyone would actually try to submit. :)

There are a number of reposts of it that aren't on E621 for people having trouble there, try this one (no idea who the guy is, but Deviant Art is pretty decent): http://chiefwrigley.deviantart.com/art/Rainbow-Dash-Attack-208691980

Thanks, Bronies :)

Oh god this is an awful hack. I mean the thought is nice but seriously most of it just sticking rainbow dash where the robot unicorn was. Rainbow Dash is extremely choppy, the game isn't designed for her shape so heights and jumps are all off balance. It's better to just gut the whole thing at this rate. If you want to just paste a RD in there without properly modifying it to her specs you should make a rainbow dash from scratch nearly identical to the robot unicorn.

That intro Music. Is that... Earthbound? Aw yeah. We need more MLP and earthbound.

Here you go, everyone. Source files for this hack (though really, anyone could have done the same as I did to get them.) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QWRH2J3V

Emil, I'm looking at you. Get to work. ;)

Ezzekiel said...

Alrite, so far my best score is 97430 with a best Dash of 37740. But I promise you all, I WILL BEAT THAT SCREENCAPPED HIGHSCORE AT THE TOP!

Also, yes it's very glitchy and I get thrown underground more often than not. However, I find the music very catchy, although it would be excellent with some rock since it's The Dash and all X3.
