We're back, and we're not dead!

We have a new update video posted on the first post, and you can view it here: 

Hello all! We’re still at development, but currently we’re in need of a helping hoof for two things.

Thing one:

We’re looking for animators and digital artists who wish to build puppets and animate character designs for Super Smash Ponies.

And thing two:

We are looking for Voice Actresses! This casting call is for the roles ofApplejack, and Rainbow Dash. At this point in time we are not requesting voices for other characters.

More information at http://supersmashponies.com/?p=386!

(Prepares shield for comments of a negative sort)

Considering the fact that Discord was a stoner loner, it was actually surprising to me that he actually had a heart for friendship. I think the reason why the episode and the reform seemed short was that there was more room for some chaotic craziness and whatnot. I kept going "DISCORD STAHP" at the rotating background.

Everything is changing for each character. Even the spirit of chaos. He isn't full on good per se, but more of diluted chaos. It's good that he is reformed and yet still maintains the same personality. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out for Discord.

Though I can imagine thousands of fanfic ruined at the same time thousands born. But he's the spirit of chaos, so I'm pretty sure that he'll stir up chaos in the fanbase based on his performance eheheh.

Edit: It already has. 

I LOVE THIS.

 

I want to know everything about it and will be following it religiously. If this is completed, I might be the first person to try this who never played any Super Smash Brothers game.

 

1. Are the ponies' moves all the same except for specials, or will there be more variation in their moves?

2. Can you have Fluttershy do a "yay" when she wins?

3. Can RD do a Sonic Rainboom?

4. Will there be any fillies like the CMC?

5. Can Pinkie use the Party Cannon?

6. How many different stages will there be to fight in?

7. Will the ponies have more facial expressions than Twilight shows here?

8. Will the ponies have any spoken lines, or just grunts?

1. There will be some variation among characters.

2. Perhaps we can arrange that.

3. Rainbow Dash's Development has not begun yet. I'm considering between Sonic Rainboom and Atomic Rainboom.

4. Yessir!

5. Pinkie Pie's Development has not begun yet, but it is very likely.

6. Currently there are 10 planned, and hopefully even more than 10 when we finish.

7. We'll try our best to vary facial expressions.

8. For when they win, there will be a spoken line.

The feedback is very much appreciated! I'm looking forward to this game being finished as soon as it can, it's going to be great. There is a new video on the first post of this topic, so yeah 

Hope you'll enjoy!

Usually I don't like to think in terms of black and white, but isn't it that where there is harmony, there is chaos? I mean, what would that mean is discord were to be "reformed?" Considering he is the spirit of disharmony and all?

My theory on Discord is that he was frozen in stone and not killed to preserve the spirit of chaos, in order to counterbalance with harmony. You can't destroy the idea of chaos. So what happens now if he is reformed? 

Though considering it is just a single episode, it may be not the best result we could hope for.

I'm keeping an eye on you Dave Polsky.  <_<

Timberwolves: THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM

All kidding aside, I did like the episode. Though the concept of saving a life and eternal repayment has been used before many times in other shows, the presentation of this concept was pretty darn good. Even though Spike kinda sucked at doing things for AJ, at least he proved he was willing.

The beginning of the episode was pretty darn good. It's always that confounded air balloon, isn't it? When I saw the animation for the timberwolves I was pretty darn amazed, "OH SNAP, NEXT TIER ANIMATION!" Though as it tried to blend in with the rest of the environment with cel shading, I can't help but feel it still stuck out a little.

Then the rest of the episode was pretty darn good. Not so much for the middle where it felt very minimal, but the ending was presented nicely.

You know, this episode was actually good, no, great. It was good to see Babs again; good use of continuity. I guess Braeburn too.

Glad to see that AJ finally got her own song! It only just took a demolishment of a barn and a whole apple family reunion and all. 

Does anyone understand the backstory with Arnold's parents and all? I remember seeing episodes talking about it, them being miracle workers and all, but I don't have the clearest memory of what exactly happened to them.

My wii is literally an inch away from my reach and yet I haven't played it in quite some time. I have: 

• Wii Sports (lol)
• LoZ:    Princess
• Super Smash Bros. Brawl
• Mario Kart Wii
• Tatsunoko vs. Capcom

My collection is so minimal ): Then again, I'm picky with what wii games I want to play, or I don't have the money for the games I want to play.

If I had personal preference as to who should be newcomers/returning, I would say:

• Paper Mario
• Banjo and Kazooie
• Plusle/Minun
• Mewtwo. Mewtwo is a must.
• Dry Bowser (Maybe.)
• Ryu

That's about it. I mean, I would love to see my favorite pony characters somehow make it in the game, but eh. Perhaps for a different game. 

I want to go, I should go, I can't go. 

Considering that I live across the other side of the country, I know airfare and hotel fare will pretty much slash out my wallet, provided I don't buy anything extra.

If I had the means, I would definitely go to Bronycon 2013.

I'm amazed how fast all of you guys can type!

...*snickers*

I have 66 correct words, 0 wrong words.

344 correct keystrokes, 0 incorrect.

Better than 84.52% of all users (position 14049 of 90739 - last 24 hours)

If it's at a Walmart or Target, I feel just a tad hesitant walking through the aisle towards the pony toys. Then again, I'm usually picky for what kind of merch I want, so I usually don't buy from them. I just go to Hot Topic, and there I feel no embarrassment for buying merch. If anything I feel cringing because I know my wallet is prone to depletion. 

Couple of questions:

 

1. Without giving anything away, how many characters are you looking to have beyond the Mane 6 or is this still up in the air?

 

2. Will there be tripping?

1) The character roster will be at 21 characters.

2) There will be no random tripping in our game. This is to ensure that whoever wants to play competitively will not be affected by random factors such as that. 

Eewww, GameMaker. I used to use GameMaker, but IMO programming in FlashDevelop is more organized and more capable. Just my opinion. Plus it's quicker. But you guys must be pretty good with GM if you got all this awesomeness going on. And yay for ledgegrabs!

P.S. "we'd set up a domain no time flat."

* "we'd set up a domain in 10 seconds flat." Sorry, had to do that.

 

...Lots o' smilies in this post, isn't there?

We just use game maker since that's the only option that we're most knowledgeable at. 

And yes, I was about to use that reference, but I chose not to considering it may have been used a bit too much. 

Nuu August is so far awaaayyyy... Ah well, I know personally how long game development takes. So, this leaves me with two more questions:

 

1. Will there be a ledge-hang? Like when you're in midair near a ledge, you attach onto it? Because the number of times those've saved me is twice as high as the number of books Twilight Sparkle has read.

2. What programming language are you using? Out of curiosity.

1. Funny you say that, I just imported a ledgegrab animation into the game.

2. GML. We're programming this is Game Maker Studio. Personally to me, it does the job quickly and effectively to our needs.

I can't wait to try this out! I have three questions

 

1. Is their going to be a story mode like The Subspace Emissary

 

2. Is their going to be online multiplayer

 

3. Is their going to be any surprise characters that aren't in the MLP Universe.

1. It's still in the air, but the chances right now seem very likely

2. Yes, so long as we can figure out the best solution from connecting one client to another.

3. Yes.

This looks very promising.   You've done great work with the effects, graphics, voice acting, music choice, and such. Very nice work. However, I would consider buying a domain to look more professional, if possible. When will this be available to the public?

Yup. If we had any money that we could get from our own pockets, then we'd set up a domain no time flat.

This game is still currently in alpha stages, so we can't give a good ballpark of when this game will be available to the public. Our plan is that we hope to finish the mane six by august, and then make a public beta available after a convention tournament WHOOPS DID I JUST SAY THAT OUT LOUD.

Well then, that's an interesting idea, yet incredibly messed up. I also can't imagine Spike turning evil even after the hoarding episode.

Quite, yes. But considering he takes some time to age, anything can happen in the years of his life.

Unless if he stays in Ponyville, that would reduce chances of an evil personality developing.

First off this multiquote thing is amazing lol

It looks fun.  I've always liked the SSB series (and am quite disappointed there wasn't one for the Wii U...).  I'm very interested to see where this goes, and will keep an eye on it.

Considering that the WiiU was only recently released, it's only no surprise that one has not come out yet. I hear Namco Bandai is teaming up to work on the WiiU's Smash Bros. title.

I just gotta say: This sounds awesome!

 

Two questions:

 

1. Will it be a flash game or something you have to install?

 

2. Will you be needing any kind of assistance in this game?

1) It will be a game that requires installation on your computer.

2) Any suggestions help!

Well, can't wait to see how this turns out, I'll be sure to pop around for updates!

By the way, are you basing the mechanics after Melee or Brawl?

We're basing it off a bit of melee, but we've changed the mechanics so much that it's a bit more unique, and faster paced than any of the three previous Smash Bros. titles.

Considering previous posts, perhaps it wouldn't matter in the slightest if they mistreat Spike. Because they'll all be dead when Spike is older.

All of them.

He'll reflect back on all the times he was mistreated.

Then he will laugh silently, to himself.

Or maybe not, lol.

Super Smash Ponies is a 2D fighting game that combines the gameplay of the Super Smash Bros. Franchise and the world of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

We are hard at work to develop this game, and we'd like to hear community feedback. Every bit helps; the more the merrier!

Ready... Set... DISCUSS!

My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Rainbow Dash

How did you find MLP Forums?: I searched up google for MLP forums. I've heard of the forum's name in some instances on other sites, but I usually brushed it aside.

How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: If you find a friend of mine called Sparky Muffin, please forward my incurred wrath-- er, a kind regard to him.

(50 is the minimum) Uh oh, 50 characters. May Celestia allow me to-

Oh, I met the minimum. But I kid.

Hi! I'm Majesticyoshi. Majestic, Yoshi, whatever you prefer. I'm guessing you prefer Yoshi. 

I'm a first year college student as of this post, and have been a Brony since approximately one year ago. Should've found these forums way earlier, but oh well!

I kinda to a bit of artwork, music, and game development, with the first two being more of hobbies. I like to take long walks on the beach develop video games, and hopefully I'll be able to make something out of it.

I mean, it's not like I'm working on anything major... 

But long post short: Hi, I'm majesticyoshi, and I'm looking forward to my time on these forums.
