My Little Pony: Rise of Vicis Fan Game
Another fan game is in progress. Currently he is looking for feedback, as well as assistance on the games design. Check out the dev blog for it here if you are interested!
Ponies Invading Things!
Have some stuff ponies have popped up in!
League of Legends Summoner Showcase (Fighting is Magic small reference)
Homestuck
Mock Equestrian Wars Project!
Choose your side, Choose your race, Choose your fate.
Mock Equestrian Wars is a browser game project to create an active time turn-based strategical game that functions in a MMO format based on the premise of a “mock war” or “battle reenactment”. Drawing inspiration from well known games like Fire Emblem and Advanced Wars, the game will divide players into two opposing sides. The game will offer three different styles of game play. Players will be either able to control a squad of ponies on a large game map, be a Captain supporting the squads under their command, or even a Commander deciding the logistics of the war.
All players will work together to complete objectives that further their side’s goal to win the game while making them into the pony that always wanted to be. From battling other players in skirmishes that will act like a tactical battle from the aforementioned game series, to constructing buildings on the battle field like “field hospitals” and “fortifications,” every pony must work together to win. The game aims to do all this while maintaining the atmosphere of comedy, teamwork, non-lethality, and fun that is embodied in the MLP:FIM show.
While we are still in the early planning stages we have a lot of the game mechanics hashed out and are ready to start preliminary development of the game itself. We are looking for HTML 5, Javascript, and php programmers as well as artists and people interested in game design to help us hammer down the details and keep everything balanced.
If your looking to help out or just see how everything is going, join us at: http://mew.decisive-media.net

Woo, another roundup!
ReplyDeletecool
ReplyDeleteme gusta
ReplyDeleteThose plushies <3
ReplyDeleteAlso, had a real fun night at the San Francisco bonfire brony meet tonight!
I like that the merch/ebay stuff has pictures now!
ReplyDeleteThis should be "Oh gawd why am I awake at 8:30am" edition... As such I'm off to bed. (wish it was 1:30 over here >=[ )
ReplyDeleteI love the bottlecap keychain!
ReplyDelete@moonsugar
ReplyDeleteAs do I. :D
I'm very glad that you decided to include images of the "Merch/eBay Stuff" section. It means we don't have to click through just to see what the item looks like.
ReplyDeletei've been waiting all night for this!!! n now, i shall sleep till new episode.
ReplyDeleteSo are you going to ever post the Fox News Report on BronyCon, Seth?
ReplyDeleteOr is that too Mare do Well for you?
Is posting pictures of the eBay items in the roundup a new thing? Because it's /totally awesome/, I approve wholeheartedly, and you should keep doing it. :D
ReplyDeleteLOVE. LOVE that Derpy cake. It's adorable.
ReplyDeleteAs for meetups-YES to the Chicago Bronycon. The second city is a nice palace and has some awesome bronies and I'd love to see a big event there.
And those keychain ponies are FABULOUS.
Huh. At least one word in Canterlock per item. I'm emotional tonight apparently...
@40387d3e-cd3f-11e0-b87b-000bcdcb8a73
ReplyDeleteI believe he did yesterday friend. And I love that the pictures now show for the ebay stuff :)
I like that the merch stuff now has a picture display here on the site, it makes it easy for us to see the awesome stuff!.. or die from cuteness overload!
ReplyDelete@40387d3e-cd3f-11e0-b87b-000bcdcb8a73
ReplyDeleteIt was in the roundup last night
Di-Stri is a brony, Huss is a God. That is all.
ReplyDeleteseth i'll if you wanna play League i'll play a game with ya. im normally on, names belgarath81.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome Trixie image.
ReplyDeleteThe pop culture identifying contest is really cool. Unfortunately I'm too tired right now and I'll forget about it later. lol
"#theydidn'ttellmeanddidn'tlinkanything" I feel bad that took as long as it did for me to sound out and get. *facehoof*
"I am proud to announce that we are the first podcast to have both voices of Vinyl Scratch and Octavia from the Vinyl Scratch Tapes" ... Yeah... you know what I'm going to say. lol So I won't even go there. I'll spare you that horrible fate. ;)
Derpy cake, d'awww. Of course it has a muffin on it. One of the few cakes that would I suppose. :P
Wow, another FiM fan game into the works? Dang. In my opinion he needs a new logo/banner though. Some skilled artist get on that. lol
And... another game. lol A Equestian War one though, oooh. Turn-based. Which isn't my preferred type. I tend to like just going out there and hitting things and shooting things as fast as I can. Haha. It certainly does sound intriguing however.
Oh wow, actually posting images to the Ebay items now instead of just links? Nice.
Less than six hours until the new episode!
@Xiagu
ReplyDeleteNah, it's not new. Been in the Roundups for quite a long time. Only this time Seth put images of the auctions up too. Usually it's just links at the bottom. :P

ReplyDeletetheres a sweet DJ PON-3 keychain, and some others if you click the sellers page
ReplyDeletebtw I love the pics of the merch! So much easier :D
Oh crud I forgot to offer a source for the image FACEPALM
ReplyDeleteI wish that the Spike plushie would ship to Australia.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I just realized something; for that browser MMO EqD is going the be the very center of the battlefield.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I just finished playing League of Legends for the night. Viktor is actually pretty fun to play!
ReplyDeleteAnyhow,I think that Fluttershy BeaniePlush just gave me Diabetes.
HareDoctor's PMV brings back so many good memories... :) And there are so many pony games in the making now! So much to look forward to...
ReplyDeleteHmm... I may fire up Runescape again if there's a clan of bronies :D
I'm surprised that I have yet to see anyone flip out over a Rainbow Dash poster in Homestuck. And here I thought we might have a number of rabid Homestuckers among us. Perhaps not so much.
ReplyDeletemock equestrian wars: perfect title for a D&D game with MLP:FIM stuff instead of the usual
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteWoo a pop culture contest! I shall pop all the cultures!
ReplyDeleteThe 'Mock Equestrian Wars Project' looks like an interesting concept and will be fun to play once its done.
ReplyDelete@Flavin BagelOh, we do.
ReplyDeleteI was going to send something in, but I figured I would just be one of many.
But seriously, considering the size and reach of Homestuck, I was expecting it to get its own post.
The largest webcomic of all time, in terms of pages, posts pony. This is a significant achievement. It means we've hit the really big leagues.
Seriously. This cannot be understated enough. If Homestuck recognizes us, then we are truly legitimate.
You're right in more than one way, Seth, about Seattle being really cool right now.
ReplyDelete@Blaze52
ReplyDeleteI hate the game but the only reason I log on is for them.
@uberPhoenix
ReplyDeleteI was one of the people who submitted that link, but I don't know how many others did as well.
There's been a few minor pony references prior to this (including a FiM-style version of a toy pony in the story in one of the albums), but this is the first time the show has been actually acknowledged. Of course, considering the character who's room it is and the nature of the author himself, it is quite possible that the reference is purely ironic. Guess we'll just have to wait and see if Hussie decides to comment or expand on it.
LOVE league of legends ! if anyone wants to add me to there friends list i use the name PinkiePieStyle (i am only on once in a blue moon since i can only play it at a friend's house. my normal computer cant handle it ^^;)
ReplyDeleteSorry, i play dota
ReplyDeletebut awesome games for ponies
and where did you get that fluttershy beanie plush
LOL those keychains are made by a girl in my local facebook Brony group. Small world in which we live, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteTrixie and Veigar; what a pair.
ReplyDeleteAck, wrong side of WA! :(
ReplyDeleteJoin the Bronies public chat on LoL if you care
ReplyDeleteYES! Veigar is my main champ! Love this! "What's black and blue, and is about to show you the definition of love and tolerance?"
ReplyDeleteThe MLP: Rise of Vicis site is having some issues, and might be taken down for having too much stuff on it. I made a page for it on Facebook in case this occurs: http://www.facebook.com/pages/My-Little-Pony-Rise-of-Vicis-MLP-Fangame/335366846482815?sk=wall
ReplyDeleteI am the main person working on the game.
