    My Little Pony: Budding Friendships Music

    The Budding Friendships guys sent a few of their new music tracks over for the upcoming Harvest Moon style game.  Have some copy paste, and the tracks!
    "Hello everyone! I am here today to share with you some music from the Harvest Moon-style pony fan game, Budding Friendships. Our team is hard at work making a great game in which you will be able to live as a newcomer in the town of Ponyville working to raise up a farm. You will meet and befriend the characters from the show, visit familiar places in the town and the surrounding environs, and maybe even learn what your special talent is. My contribution will be as a composer, and here you can listen to a small sampling of the music that will help to bring the world of Equestria to life. Please enjoy! And do let us know what you think. We greatly appreciate the support and interest we receive.

    Friendship is MADNESS Animated Series Seeks Help!

    Copy Paste:
    Our podcast (Friendship is MADNESS) is actually working on our own animated series. Not a series of shorts, mind you, but a full on 22-minute episode series based around our characters, with original characters from the community as the minor characters and background characters. We've already finished the scripts for the first two episodes, and are currently working on storyboard art. We already have a couple people working with us, including Yudhaikeledai (Thinking with Portals series), Welsh_Monkey (deviant Artist), and even BronyToons have agreed to help us out whenever they can. However, we need more help making this show come to the community a little faster.

    We need animators, character artists, background artists, and music creators. We're willing to give the original characters of those who help us out a place on the show (within reason - no alicorns or monsters). If that character proves popular enough, they'll become minor characters on the show, with voices and everything. Not only that, but their names will be written into the credits of every episode they help us with, and we'll happily provide any links they have to the community.

    If you think you can help us out, then please contact me at hjohenson@hotmail.com.

    Successful Meetups

    --------------------------------------------------------------
    Oahu Meetup


    Copy Paste:
    "The most recent Oahu brony meet up, with a headcount of about 18 ponies (one of them being SonicRainboom93), was held at the Bellows beach park. Thanks to the generous contributions of Ian, Andrew, and Jayce, we were able to grill food under the covered lanai which was so graciously rented for us as well. (It cost an awful lot!) Talking, eating, and enjoying the beach were how we spent most of the day with a few sand burials and pin the tail on Rarity thrown in for good measure. While it was really windy the entire time we were there, making it a bit cold, it didn't stop us all from having tons of fun. If you live on Oahu, feel free to join us at our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/groups/262457417154087/ so you're in the loop when we have our next one!"

    Disneyland Meetup 

     24 hours of disney? I'd go crazy
    Copy Paste:
    On February 29th, the SoCal Bronies met up to celebrate Disneyland's Annual 24-hour event. Over the course of the night we had as many as 28 bronies join us, and gave out our info to many more that we met. We held a competition on the Astro Blasters ride, with the prize being a blind bag pony. The high score was 135,000 and the recipient lucked out with Twilight Sparkle! The rest of the night was spend running around  in smaller groups riding anything we would bear to wait for.  By the time the park was closing at 6 am, we still had 15 bronies crazy enough to stay with us!

    10. Ah, more My Little Dashie teaser footage. I'm still a little on the fence about the project. But I know there's quite a lot of people out there looking forward to it. Hope it turns out well.

      Some really nice and mellow music for the Budding Friendships game so far. But they're by Senator Myth. So good quality is to be expected. Hope to hear more great tunes from this project.

      Gender bending in Equestria? Sorry, Octavia already beat you to the punch on that one. Better luck next time!

      And here's to another fun new episode in less than 10 hours from now. :)

    11. I saw that Soap of Harmony, and I laughed when I saw that one of the links on that page led to a Decepticon insignia soap. I do sometimes forget what chaos and destruction smells like from time to time.

      ReplyDelete
    12. I've sent a few requests here about game production. No response though. Guess I need some actual screenshots or video first. Problem is my current progress is all tech based so its kinda difficult to show.

      ReplyDelete
    13. Woah! I'm up for this? Either I'm up later than usual or this is up earlier than usual.

      ReplyDelete
    14. The soap of Harmony has Generosity as green. It is an atrocity that I found so funny I cried.

      ReplyDelete
    15. Thanks for the link to my meetup

      Also, that My Little Dashie movie looks like it's coming along nicely, I can't wait to see the full thing

      ReplyDelete
    16. I kinda wish I coulda bee nto that disneyland meetup. I have a annual pass, and I already know that it's very easy to find bronies there. Plus, I coulda beaten that score on astro blasters in my sleep. My high score is 2mil.

    18. @Beta-Carotene

      It's a project about the DNS. And also ponies. Who wouldn't want their own Equestria domain name?

      http://eqnic.net/

      So, when you say that you're a bit off from having screenshots on your project, at least you have screenshots to show. XD

      Sethisto, if you see this, definitely include that guy's stuff in a Nightly Roundup. It could be awesome if their domain name is accepted and registered.

    26. An MLD movie?

      I...no. Please, no.

    27. @Derpestia

      You forgot to be inclusive of lesbians, bi-sexual, and heterosexual folks.

      But I guess you like those more, don't you?

      XD

    28. Gender Bender Joke. By celestia the mayhem you have caused for all of our OCs. Well i guess i better go modify my most recent drawing in accordance with recent news.

    29. >My Little Dashie Movie

      Looks like a Western take on Asian dramas for some reason.

      Anyway, I would'ave preferred it if the identity and appearance of the guy was never revealed. That in my opinion is what cemented all the sad elements of MLD into a real tearjerker.

      You can talk to yourself all you want, just don't talk back.
