Grimdark? x.x
VastaKustutaWoohoo, more pony games!
VastaKustuta...you had to post a game?
VastaKustutanow, it's 4 hours of sleep...
Ohh my gawd...AWSOME!
VastaKustutadude, this looks scary good. scary and good.
VastaKustutaWow this sure looks different since the last time I played it. Reminds me of Limbo.
VastaKustutaThis is really good! Want more!
VastaKustutaHeh. Pretty cool.
VastaKustutaNever seen a creepy platform game before! :D
FREAKING AWESOME totally gives me that Limbo feel i've been CRAVING for PLUS PONIES GAH SO MUCH WIN
VastaKustutaPretty good. However, I can't find what the advantage is of using AJ. Twi can create boxes and RD can fall slower/farther. AJ needs to have some advantage or there isn't any reason to use her.
VastaKustutaI was thinking Limbo crossed with Story of the Blanks...
VastaKustuta*shudders* Reminds me of another grimdark platformer I've played a few times, especially with the floating text and what it says...
VastaKustutaHowever the physics are still a bit off, i managed to Rainbow Dash myself off the end of the map and then continually fall into nothingness.
Still, I would love to see this finished. Platforming, puzzles AND grimdark pony game? Wow.
I'm loving the new art direction!
VastaKustutaThat was rather amusing.
VastaKustutaLimbo + Trine + Ponies? Awesome!
VastaKustutaLOVE it! Keep up the great work! :D
VastaKustutaHmm, had trouble switching characters. But that's probably just my scrollwheel. I love pony game's in any case though! :D
VastaKustutaThis is cool. Trine was awesome.
VastaKustuta@Filiecs - Same here. I got addicted to that game thanks to the Humble Frozenbyte Bundle.
VastaKustutaAnypony know how to switch characters for someone using a pen tablet?
VastaKustuta@EonMaster
VastaKustutaI'd assume AJ will be able to move objects the others can't.
That pit at the end brought back memories of the Luna Game. Oh god, the memories.
VastaKustutaThankfully there was an invisible wall to hold off my curiosity, for which I am eternally grateful. Whew!
Wow, that couldn't possibly get any more cryptic. I assume the full game would make more sense.
VastaKustutaSo i jumped down through the bridge, and that pony is scary!
VastaKustutaI got him bugged with the box, but when i moved it, he started patrolling and i couldn't get up in time
I like the atmosphere and style. I'm looking forward to what comes of this
VastaKustutathe game itself played fine. I was getting a steady 28FPS throughout. I must agree with others that AJ seemed pretty useless in this demo, I hope she has specific abilities demonstrated in future.
Love the Limbo feel. A pony Limbo game would be epic.
VastaKustutahow do i get to the "color" original version as seen on there blog?!?!?!?..
VastaKustutathat was short and i crave MORE!!!
This won't have a Pinkamena jump on me and slash my innards in it right???
VastaKustutaAwesome! it's like Limbo! keep the good work!!!
VastaKustutaSooooo... Why doesn't the quality actually change when I try and set it?
VastaKustutaOh man I love this new change. I also got into grimdark pony games, and I love the monochrome visuals~
VastaKustutaI WANT MORE!!!
Limbo styling? Hints of a Story of the Blanks plot? Sign me up! Take my money!
VastaKustuta(No, not all of my money, I need that stuff to live. But some of it. In a metaphorical way.)
Well, it seems the AJ character is utterly useless in this demo... and you can totally get yourself stuck by putting Twilight's magic block between yourself and the patrolling glowing-eyes pony below the bridge.
VastaKustutaBut overall, pretty nice demo :)
@Meep
VastaKustutanah she gobbles you up like the SkiFree Abominable Snow Monster
>Sees a black red eyed pony on loading screen.
VastaKustutaOh no! Not these guys again. D:}
Haha! Creepy! I like creepy!
VastaKustutaSlow load time and I had 13 FPS.
VastaKustutaI blame my laptop. The engine worked pretty well, though.
Heh, I used Rainbow Dash to completely bypass the zombie pony and then credits. Best game ever!
VastaKustuta@crispymwhc
VastaKustutaDon't maximize your browser. It helps. I resized it so the actual game was like, Minecraft-sized, and that worked well.
@TerribleClerk
Hmm... dunno, but my laptop's touch pad has a border strip that can be used for scrolling.
Amazing well done.
VastaKustutanice even though it was short. keep up the good work
VastaKustutaPonies mixed with Trine and Limbo.
VastaKustutaThat's something interesting alrgiht :P
@Nyerguds
VastaKustutaThanks, that helped a lot!
This looks good, I'll admit. Maybe a creepier font would help with the first lines to create a better atmosphere.
VastaKustutaBesides, what I'm seeing is very promising, so please keep it up! I really wanna see where this goes ^^
This game is creepy. Really creepy!
VastaKustutaBut I love it!! I wish there was more ; A ;
@mycutiemarkisagun
VastaKustutaThat is so not true.
I just chop you up and put you in the freezer for later.
This looks fantastic.
VastaKustutaIf it ends up even nearly close to Limbo, I want it.
VastaKustutaIts good to see that there is still work going on with this game. It could be very good. I got a Ben Drowned feel when the game asked me "What have you done?". Still a lot of slow down for me but that could be my labtop. I really hope this gets done.
VastaKustutaDon't click don't click don't click..... Oh there goes my study time.
VastaKustutaI always play as Rainbow Dash.
VastaKustutaFun but there needs to be a bit of a tweak to the part where they want you to use a unicorn to draw a box on the tutorial you can pass that part with AJ or RD with no need for switching ponies. As a matter of fact there was no reason to switch from RD at all. Is there a point to have AJ as a character in it?
VastaKustutaNice feel to it it makes me want to buy the old pc game off steam =3
@Cátsy Rainbow Dash glides when she jumps.
VastaKustutaI'm not sure about Applejack's though. :/
AJ can sprint while holding the shift key. Should have mentioned that.
VastaKustutaWhen you glide into a Wall as Rainbow Dash, it triggers the walking animation, as she slowly descends to the ground.
VastaKustutaIt's LIMBO copy, but very cool! :)
VastaKustutaDamn, I would love to play a full length game of that (I loved Limbo). I would even pay for it. ^_^
VastaKustuta...fortunately for me I would not have to. <_<
@mycutiemarkisagun
VastaKustutaI can live with that.
Probably...
Would LOVE to play a full game on this!
VastaKustutaWorks okay on my outdated computer.. UPDATES PLZ!
This feels similar to Braid, at least in atmosphere and early mechanics.
VastaKustutaDefinitely Trine and Limbo.
VastaKustutaTrine, Limbo and Past sins. OH GAWD.
VastaKustutaSomeone played luna game... D:
VastaKustutalooks awesome so far. Looking forward to the full release
Nothing works...
VastaKustutaI couldn't use my scroll-wheel to change characters or draw shapes. =/
Amazing, simply amazing!
VastaKustuta@Voltaire I've never played those games. I have heard of them though.
VastaKustutaTrilight will be more Grimlight then Grimdark.
Couldn't manage to draw the box...but I just ghetto jumped it anyway.
VastaKustutaI don't scare easy and that gave me the chills! I'm excited for this to be done
VastaKustutaHmm... I think I broke AppleJack on the credits screen. I summoned Twilight's box and was goofing off trying to keep it on her head, and then I switched for AppleJack and couldn't move with her. I was still able to switch ponies, and Rainbow and Twilight were fine. AppleJack remained frozen, though.
VastaKustutaThat reminded me of Limbo.
VastaKustutaI didn't even notice the zombie pony, I was using Rainbow Dash and I flew right over it. xD
