MLP: Fighting Is Magic - A Fighting game for manly men only (New characters from MLP creator?!)

Judging by the latest stream and the glitch video that was posted, Twilight and Applejack are basically done, give or take a few minor tweaks, Pinkie Pie and Rarity are missing Magic and probably need some adjustments so they’re not too good (as it is speculated Pinkie Pie is as of the 2nd Livestream build) or unplayably bad (Livestream 2 Rarity). Fluttershy has an idle animation, as does Rainbow Dash, but crouching.

So I’d figure we were a little under 50% as of the most recent update, Pinkie and Rarity might have magic by now if they’re going the route of finishing Pinkie Pie and Rarity before touching the pegasai, might be more balanced with Twi and AJ, but since they’ve started doing voicework with Fluttershy, they might be working on her already.

Sorry for coming in late to the party! I’m a big fan of this shit.Expecting great things from the game. Look look, I even did a few fan box arts!

I don’t care what the theme of a fighter game is. As long as its a solid fighter compared to price value I’ll play it. However, If them ponies freeze the game when they throw knives then no buy :nono:

Cheerilee… omg I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!

You can spoiler them.

Thanks.

By the way, what makes Cheerilee likeable? I heard the Japanese bronies like her too…

So awesome /)^3^(\

Wait a sec, 4 players? When did this happen?!

The fuck is wrong with you?
What is there NOT to like about Cheerilee? She’s a single, depress woman who teaches kindergarten students, only to come back home… ALONE, and drinks herself to sleep, only to dream of a desire for someone’s love that no one can acknowledge.
Her remorse and shy characteristics makes her a lovable person in that aspect, as that’s what makes her so kawaii desu. Well, before she kills herself, of course.

Also, what the fuck is a “bronies” and how is the Japan?!

Yesterday.

Welcome to our lovely thread where all things are pony related. One fair warning don’t believe anything PozerWolf says, he’s a bit not there in the head but there in heart.

New update on the Mane6 website, mainly concept art and Twilight stage stuff, but they do say they’ll try to make this a regular thing.

MY word, what an insult of the highest calibur.
Mane6 is now doing weekly bit sized updates, they showed off twilights stage & what they’re going to add into it. The care they’re actually putting into the game is astonishing. This is the kind of thing I like to see in fighting games, developers actually CARING about their god damn game.

Having the background characters casually appearing in, well, the background is a delightful touch. It reminds me of just about any of the later SNK games. I personally love the stage in NeoGeo Battle Coliseum where Brian Battler is looking very confused at a computer console that he can’t seem to work.

Thanks for the warm welcome and the likes guys. About PozerWolf, I think he’s a fun and sensible dude, (Found that out after lurking a lot in this thread).

maxiburger.tumblr.com translates the reactions of Japanese viewers of MLP at NicoNico Douga. As I’ve observed, there’s quite a following for Cheerilee.

I just thought 2 on 2 stuff are the trends nowadays… After seeing SFxT though…

Well, I was thinking more of a SPECIAL SYSTEM wherein the combination of 2 characters would make some impact in gameplay, like Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie can perform a special Prank SUPER, or Fluttershy moves faster if she has Rainbow Dash for a partner and whatnot.

I’ve been lurking this thread for far too long. Like, ever since the early 20’s.
I probably won’t main anyone. The characters are all far too awesome to just use one of them 90% of the time.

Also, Erkicman, 4 player stuff doesn’t exist on this game. He’s trolling you.

Damn, first time I actually checked out the game site.
Looks neat… I think? Too many hexagons.

Nigga what?!
Also, what’s trolling? You English to me is very foreign!!

Does anyone know where I can find a high resolution Mane6 logo so I can use it in a project I am working on? I tried asking the Mane6 guys on twitter but never got a response, and I was hoping to not have to vector/trace the logo again (I lost the file for the last one I did). Much appreciated.

Wish I could help you, but my logo has a low resolution too.

I came from reddit, saying that some big dude from the Shoryuken site played the beta and enjoyed the system. For some reason, that rekindled my spirit for the game.

Now, about the Twilight Sparkle stage, I’d love it if the stage would change for every round.

Here’s another idea!
Round 1: No one in the library, Morning
Round 2: Spike, Owlushcheiurss are in the library. Caramel is peeking through the door, Daytime
Round 3: Ponies are starting to flock through the library. A lot of cheering can be seen. Afternoon.
Round 4: Few ponies stay. Night Time.

Kind of like how King of Fighters does it. Sure it takes a lot of work, but it’ll make it real awesome.

Look, I’m sure there’s a lot of things people want in this game, but we gotta kind of be realistic here.
Different settings in the stage per round would be cool, but that would be the last thing I’d work on, really.

Yeah, but one can dream. Gameplay should be the focus.

FM2K is good, but it does have its limits. Hopefully Mane6 can stretch those limits.

BTW nice blog Pozer. Can’t bother to comment cause needs accounts.

I hope they can make a bunch of these things happen. Things like falling statues and books due to ground/wall bounce is VERY ambitious.

Okay Funbags, who’s the chick in your avatar THIS time?
