abandoned project: Fiends from Dream Valley

Normally, there's a rule against posting a work that isn't your own, but I asked for and got special permission to post this:  FIends from Dream Valley:

Fiends from Dream Valley is an unfinished fan-project that was abandoned a year or two ago; it was a platformer that was going to repurpose some Generation-1 villains like Crunch the Rock Dog and Lavan in a G-4 setting, and it allowed the player to play as any one of the main six (except Rarity; she wasn't added to the game before the project was abandoned).  Those who worked on FFDV have since gone on to other things; I know all this because I emailed the team who made it several months ago.

Since it had so many similarities to my own fangame (there are links to mine in my signature), and since the original team's website no longer exists and it can't be downloaded anywhere else, I'm posting a copy of it here so anyone who's interested can download it from my Google Drive to have a look.

 

The controls are the w/a/s/d keys to move and jump, spacebar to kick, the control key lets you switch between playable ponies, and the mouse is part of the game, too:  clicking on doors in the background lets you go through them, clicking on some objects while playing as Twilight lets you use her magic to move them around, and clicking on some NPCs lets you speak with them (though not every NPC in the game can be spoken with; the little "hand" cursor lets you know which ones can and which ones can't be talked to).

Ah, the project brings back memories of this song...
