Picture Unrelated, but Classic |
DarkEra Studios is a small but talented group of bronies who design and create pony video games. Pony platformers, to be specific, which is a thing I think we can agree there need to be more of.
These guys agree with me. They are working hard to bring us exactly that in the form of a new game called Rise of the Clockwork Stallions. The game features cute, clean sprite graphics, "more than 30 playable characters, 8 locations, 48 levels, 16 bosses, and tons of secrets", strung along with clean and fast paced mechanics into what I can only describe as a pony flavored Megaman/Super Mario World/Touhou smoothie. If any of these things are your bag, you'll probably find a lot to love about Rise of the Clockwork Stallions.
Production has been announced as being 1/3 complete, with a playable demo nearing completion. We're jumping the gun just a little bit to bring you the trailer they've just released. You can follow their progress on their website, or simply check below the break to see the video.
