Diamond Dogs Interview Byrpheros


Another one that got lost in my pile of things.

Byrpheros is the pony who's making Equestria Tales, by the way. You may recall our posting of some demo work of his engine a while back. I'm talking months.

In this little interview, he talks about making the game, the challenges of a cell-shaded game in particular, and teases us about a beta. You can find the interview in Docs format here.

Story: ARTICLE 2 (Update Part 10!)



[Human in Equestria][Sci-Fi] Human in Equestria, but apparently the opposite of what we normally see.

Author: Muppetz
Description: The Princesses find an alien creature barely clinging to life at the scene of a terrifying crash. Can the Combined Power of the Elements of Harmony save it, or more importantly, should they save it?

Twilight and Pinkie Pie Sketch Auction Winners Report In


Aw, yeah, got some Twilight Sparkle up in the bitch.

Two additional winners (Calpain and MHPayne[Mike]) of Lauren Faust's sketch auctions to help victims in Japan have reported in with their sketches much like the man who won the Applejack one did. Below the break, you can find one more picture of Twilight's, and a story about Pinkie's, told by Mike, who also wrote 'Half the Day is Night'.

30 Million Pageviews Contest: Gallery


...Well, that happened fast. So fast we weren't quite ready for it to happen (sorry about the delay)! It's still kind of hard to believe we've gotten this far, but thanks to you guys here we are! And since coming here every day and commenting and sending us awesome content all the time wasn't enough, 38 of you also took the time to help us celebrate this awesomest of all possible milestones (pending 40 million) with some very cool images and comics. A very special thanks to Virga Rainboom for the above image, which was unfortunately too late for the actual contest, but awesome enough to be our title image on the day.

A scientific panel of three blogponies has gone through all your entries and selected three as our very favorites, because there must be winners. But that doesn't mean we appreciate the others any less! It's not all about being the most talented pony in the world, just about taking the time to try something. And now the time for being sappy has come to an end! Check below the page break to find the winners! And check below that to see everypony who entered!

MLP Online Botique Demo

Another small demo for MLP Online has popped up, this time demoing Carousel Boutique. 

The art in this game is awesome.  I've always loved top down isometric games, ever since the Baldur's Gate and Ultima Online days. 

You can find it here!

Nightly Roundup #78

Octavia night! I can't wait to see what they do with her in season two.  Hell even if shes the same exact animation playing the same exact instrument I'll probably go nuts. 

Don't lie, you will too.

Anyway have some news!

Pocket Ponies Round 2!

So Great and Powerful~
Honestly I think background ponies are growing on me more than mane cast ones at this point.  I think overall their fanon character growth has completely trumped the mane 6 in this awful draught of ponylessness.

I'd suggest hitting the DA link here for various sizes!
