however, hasbro did allow to continue with the development of this game as long as they changed the characters, and that's how we ended up with Them's Fighting Herds. Unfortunately, the got taken down by hasbro cuz they didnt like to see their characters get all beat up. as the name suggests, it is your typical street fighter / mortal kombat 2D fighter, but with ponies. Okay, I'm sure most of you have heard bout this one. just recently, they've added a new mode called 'New game +', and it has additional bosses, new races, and new items. even tho they've finished working on the game, they are still working on additional content, which is really cool. I might be wrong bout this, but I think this game was completed in 2018. okay, they've ripped off a couple of tracks from castlevania, but they're absolute bangers to listen to. the boss fights are EPIC and they present a DECENT challenge.
yes, the game is hard, but it is WORTH IT. each race has their own unique set of skills that'll keep you invested. as the name suggests, it is your typical 2D plat-former / metroid-vania, BUT you get to play as your OC.
if you're able to download it, I highly suggest you go and play it. as you progress, you'll unlock a variety of characters from the show. (hidden levels, secret characters, etc.) the aim is to obviously get to the end of the level. they've put A LOT of attention into the game and there are a lot of secrets to keep you occupied. (Unfortunately, it got taken down by Indie Games in 2016) this is a MLP 2D plat-former and I'm kinda disappointed it barely got any attention. Now, this is a game that I'm sure a lot of you have never even heard of, but this is one of the VERY few pony games that they actually managed to finish. they've got some BIG plans for the future, I'll say that much. there's a lot of things I've seen behind the scenes and there is a lot of stuff that I've seen that I shouldn't, but it has given me a glimmer of hope. it's good to see there are people that are still playing this game.
ther has been a lot of people that have hopped on recently, which is something that has caught me by surprise. you can grind to get ur levels up and that'll unlock new skills, but the problem is grinding is a massive pain in the arse and IMO, it's not really worth it. I think the biggest problem in this game is once you've been to every corner of the map, there isnt really anything to do. I guess the cool thing bout this game is you get to explore the world of equestria as your OC. the game has been open to the public since 2017. the good news is you can go and play it right now. Unfortunately, they are STILL working on the game, and not much has changed since the last open server weekend in 2016. It showed a lot of promise in each update. this game used to grab A LOT of attention back in the day and every-time they had an Open Server Weekend, thousands would hop onto the game and play it. yeah, Legends of Equestria is a Pony MMO that has been in development since 2012, a year BEFORE I became a brony. I'm sure most of you have heard bout this game. they've either been taken down by Hasbro / been hit with a C and D, or the creators have never bothered to finish it. Unfortunately, most of these fan made pony-games have had a pretty sad history. looking back at these games, they provide me nostalgia. Okay, it's time I talked bout something that means a lot to me. I think it's time I went over some of my favourite fan-made pony games throughout the years.
