Kidscape Fimfiction Charity Fund

Fimfiction is running a charity for Kidscape later today (February 7th) at 8pm GMT, 3pm EST, 12pm PST for a full 24 hours! You guys love charity lately, so you better get involved! Expect fanfiction readings, a live playing of Cards Against Humanity, a bit of Left 4 Dead 2, and an interview with the creators of Friendship is Witchcraft.

Head on over here to check it out, and have a quote below from Knighty:

I've wanted to do something for charity for a long time with the audience we have here, but I never really got around to it before. I'm sure many of you are familiar with Michael Morones, an 11 year old boy who, whatever the circumstances, tried to take his own life. I'm sure that whatever your opinions are on that event, we can all agree that an 11 year old child feeling like they have to try and kill themselves is very sad. Thus, I've decided I want to run a charity event for Kidscape who are an anti-bullying charity here in the UK. I'm sure we can pull together here and raise a nice bit of money for them to try and prevent things like this happening again.

Double Fine kicks off Amnesia Fortnight 2014 Game Jam

Back in 2005, I wandered into the Game Crazy attached to my local grocery store and began perusing the selection. There, in the new releases category, was a game called Psychonauts. A game about going into people's brains?! Awesome! I bought it immediately. It quickly became one of my favorite games of all time.

So imagine my surprise and delight when Double Fine, the developers of Psychonauts (and Brutal Legend, and Broken Age!) dropped an email in our inbox this morning. As soon as I saw it, I had to post it. Basically, they're taking votes on what game to make next, and one of the ideas is a game called Steed, where you play as a horse in a land of inept heros. They need your help to make it a reality- as well as your feedback on ideas! Check out the official press release and a youtube video below the break, as well as links to vote for whatever project you want!

Pinnacle of Pony Music: dbPony + Mic: Big HORSE

Three years; that's how long the pony music scene has been thriving.  We have had songs that tug at the heartstrings, some that energize, and others that are just fun to just chill to.  A few get millions of views and break out of pony to the main stream, something that many musicians only dream of.  While the quality of those is undeniable, nothing comes anywhere near what Big HORSE accomplishes.  Folks, I give you the pinnacle of brony music.  Head on down below the break for it.

Comic: Fun / Heads and Tails Pt 18 / Fallout Equestria: The Ghost of the Wastes / Good Morning

Comics once again guys. Click for full!

SFM: Paperderp - Quest for the Lost Muffins

As many of you have probably picked up by now, I love me some well animated SFM stuff.  The community around it is relatively small, but has built up to some amazing stuff over time with new models and the transition from Gmod to the actual Source Film Maker program. Based on the image above, you may be saying "But Sethisto! That's paper style animated ponies, not SFM!".  Well, we evolved again it looks like! Tohino has created a full 9 minute animation in this style with the same program that usually provides us 3D ponies.  Impressive to say the least!

Head on down below the break for some Derpy and Dinky Shinanigans.
