• Dash Off!

    by
    It's PONY GAME TIME!

    Because E3 is boring me right now with it's lack of FiM/Forgotten Realms CRPG crossovers.

    This is a neat little game, sort of an apple collecting platforming thing.

    Play it here!

      Cute! First run: 131 apples. Also, huge props to the creator for doing chiptune versions of all the show's songs!

      That was decent. The controls could use some adjusting, but overall I was entertained. (160 total. 5a in 10s. I hit too many baked bads.)

      I notice it's a bit too jittery, though it could be my computer. I think this has a lot of potential since it's not your usual jump&run platformer.

      I'm with Xanilus on this. The controls were a little stiff and took some getting used to, but I got 161 on my first run.

      Let's see how much I smoke that by on my second run.

      Reasonably fun, but the controls are terrible. And you go through apples a lot.

      First run: 162. Fun game, although it would've been nice if you could move while falling down. Dash falls like a rock when you let go of the fly button.

      I was expecting something like Robot Unicorn Attack, but this one was a lot more relaxing than that. The controls were a little off, but it was Rainbow Dash! How much more awesome can you get?

      Oh man. Now my diabolical scheme to download the 8-bit songs, convert them to mp3, and tag them with their respective images is ruined.... or not. Does anyone want the 8bit sounds played in this game? I have the mp3 files...

      Got 198 on my first run. I found plenty of bugs (besides the terrible controls).

      -Most of the time it's really difficult to go under raised ground (I stalled too much trying to reach Twilight in a terrible spot)
      -Derpy does not respond most of the time.
      -A lot of apples are layered with the bad kind (dunno if this was intentional or not).

      139 apples. Cool for burning five minutes again. I'm hoping only being able to fly right is part of the challenge of the game and not an oversight!!

      A lot of it feels random, the way everything is set up.

      And the fact that I can't fly straight up is a little disorienting.

      My favorite bug, though, is how any amount of baked bads can be overcome with friendship.
      (i.e. nothing happens if you grab a baked bad under the influence of friendship, grabbing friendship will nullify the baked bad, and if you grab a baked bad in the middle of a friendship boost, the baked bad will run out at the same time as the friendship.)



      STILL FUN AND AWESOME

      - Why can't I fly backwards?
      - Shouldn't Applejack be the one collecting apples?
      - Didn't hold my interest for long

      My only problem is moving forward after you land from a jump. I usually hold the right button the entire time, but sfter flying, I have to let go, and press it again. Took a lot of time from my run. Other than that, once you get used to the controlls, it's pretty fun. Good for a wasted 5-10 minutes.

      Great game with a great concept with only a few problems.
      1. When you land and are pressing right you should continue running without having to press right again.
      2. You should be able to walk under the raised ground since that is what it looks like we should be able to do.
      3. Change the name of the bad cupcakes to baked bads.
      4. Throw in some sort of algorithm that makes it impossible for items to stack.

      *deep breath*

      its not very good, the controls are really clunky, collision detection is too small, you can only fly at 45 degrees, you fall straight down when you stop flying, you sometimes have to repress right to move when you land, baked bads can spawn on top of apples or in a place unavoidable, your score boils down to nothing but luck, and it makes no sense how the best flier in equestria can only fly a few feet without having to rest.

      or, you know. what ever you want to do is fine...

      Ever since playing I Wanna Be the Guy (I beat it on hard!), I've been wary of apple trees.

      But apparently the apples DON'T kill you? What's up with that? Totally unnatural. I should give this game a shot...

      1st run; 149, apparently 5 apples in 10 seconds flat.

      2nd run; 173.

      Brony games never cease to amaze me.

      1st run, 165 apples. That's 6 apples in 10 seconds flat! SO. AWESOME!!!!

      I know the game is buggy/clunky as hell, but I find it REALLY hard to care too much about the flaws when I'm controlling a Dashie sprite to all of RainbowCrash88's tunes...over 200 apples, here I come!!!

      This game gets 12/10 (20% cooler than perfect), based solely on the fact it's the best game with Rainbow Dash as a sprite released so far, imo.

      Lets get critical shall we?
      + Nice sprites and level design
      + good music
      - Characters can glitch into strange spots like hovering over water or land pillars.
      - Not really that challenging, no enemies (well derpy is just confused D:)
      - Controls are awkward. Y U NO let me turn around D:
      - There seems to be no pressure to do anything. RD seems to just be taking a lazy walk when she's not flying- if she's in a rush to collect apples, she should be running!
      + 5 apples in 10 seconds flat. For that I'm not mad.

      Overall rating: 4/10, ok game just needs some tweaking in fixing bugs and stuff.

      Not a bad game, but the controls were a bit too stiff to make it really enjoyable. Though you do win back points for having the 8-bit remixes as the soundtrack. I know I'm nit picking now but you could try to have a bit more variety in the level instead of just higher ground, tree and river over and over again.

      While crossing the water pit, I saw Pinkie bouncing happily in midair. Spent ten seconds trying to figure it out. She's just being Pinkie Pie. XD

      And I love the music. So cute! :D
      Would be much better if they had all the MLP songs.
