What kind of ideas? What kind of game is it?

 

Anyway, I've done a lot with Game Maker 7 and 8. If Studio hasn't changed GML much since then, I can definitely help with code.

[Danger Wasp 114]

I voice acted for several machinima and games (here's an example of me in the background comm)

 

Hope you find this helpful, since your project's name is Pony battle royale, it could be a game about pony vs pony action

Well, obviously

I'm just curious as to the genre, because people seldom start with the name when making a game. It just seems... weird to do that.

I'd love to participate as a voice actress! My best voice is Pinkie Pie, and I've done a lot of voice acting before

So is this a fighting game like Street Fighter or more like a Double Dragon type of game?Because if it's gonna be like Street Fighter,keep in mind that Fighting is Magic is gonna be your biggest competitor in that genre.

 

If it's like Double Dragon,you might have a gold mine on your hands.

Hmmm... Ah could perhaps voice Applejack.... I really never had a chance to voice act so I need a place to start.

 

If you want, message me with any scripts or stuff.  

[Swick (ded) 436]

Though I may not be much for Voice Acting, I think I may be able to come up with a few ideas, depending on what you have in mind. Many a pony have informed me I am quite original and creative. On a side note, I'm glad to hear a new MLP game will be coming out. Not too many good ones out there. Also, I used to use Game Maker, so I may be able to assist with the code.

I' ll consdier you as Fluttershy or Pinkie Pie

 

Talk to me on Skype. I'm a fellow GML coder, Game Designer, and all around Computer genius.

I'll help with Voice Acting where I can - I'm not the best but I can get the job done - and I'm great at ideas.

 

Skype: VioletLinked

Do you know how to make 2-player or a Health System?

 

So is this a fighting game like Street Fighter or more like a Double Dragon type of game?Because if it's gonna be like Street Fighter,keep in mind that Fighting is Magic is gonna be your biggest competitor in that genre.

 

If it's like Double Dragon,you might have a gold mine on your hands.

The game is more like Super Smash Bros, so my competiton is Super Smash Ponies.

• Features
• Etc.....

Yes, I do know how to make a 2 player HP system. I can also make it a 4 player HP system. I can make a character select screen where you choose your ponies and blah blah blah. Whatever you need I can do it.

 

Also, why make it in Game Maker 8.1? Studio is so much better. If you don't have it, I can hook you up with a licence key.

 

For Sprites, I recommend getting someone to customly do them, or use some pre-made ones you can find in the 'Desktop Ponies' application.

 

 

I think he meant 2-player AND a health system, not a 2 player health system.

 

Of course, none of those are hard anyway

 

Also... about that license key, can you hook me up with one? I've been wanting to try studio since it came out.

i use Gamemaker 8.1 because of the 20 sprites limited in the Gamemaker Studio and my game take more sprites than that.

If you could give me a license key I'd really appreaciate it

 

Also I meant 2-player and a health system

I agree with VioletLinked. Not about your code, because I haven't seen it. But starting small will definitely help along the game-development path.

[Lunar Red 92]

I can make a 2,3,4,etc player, hp, and damage system.

Studio doesn't have a limit when you have a licence key.

For the people who want one above,

 

 

CODE REMOVED, HAVE A NICE DAY!

 

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

Can you set up a Dropbox folder with all the game assets and send me a link over skype?

 

-----

 

ADDITION:

 

I took a look and the game's code is really sloppy.

I'm going to guess this is one of the first game's you've ever made. 

 

Tip of advice, and please don't take this the wrong way, but this project is extremely ambitious and you lack the skills and assets to make this game.

What you need to do is make a ton of small games testing out one or two mechanics an then after about 30 or so games, get ambitious and throw everything you've learned into something big.

 

I tried to do something ambitious in one of my first games, and I threw away 3 years of my life. Stay on the safe side and do super small projects. I've been coding and developing for almost 9 years now, and I'm just getting started on my first commercial release.

 

Also, I'll warn you that making indie games isn't really a 'Casual' business anymore. It's extremely competitive. I'm not wanting you to quit making games, I'll support you, I just want to lead you on the right path and I don't want you to make the mistakes I did.

 

Take it from a fellow coder and developer.

-Violet

It isnt the first game I made (actually my 6th)

 

I'll try to improve the coding in the game and the fact that it is sloppy, I'll try to improve on that to.

[Vastile 0]

SnowFlake (A.K.A. Steroid Pony) needs to be in this. Also, I'd love to toss some voice work at cha! This looks like a cool project, I hope it comes through.

[Swick (ded) 436]

Well, I have a few points to make and a question or two...

 

Point 1: I would highly recommend not using the Desktop Pony sprites, as they are used way too much in games. Find an animator that specializes in ponies, if possible.

 

Point 2: I've taken a look at Super Smash Ponies (found here), and I can say that I am pretty skeptical about you trying to outdo them, going off your experience of just six games. They have original animations, (mostly) original music, and I can guess, better physics, attacks, general programming, etc.

 

Point 3. Basically, you're going to need some high-end programmers for this game, skilled pony animators, accurate voice actors(it looks like you'll have plenty to choose from), excellent composers, and probably ask around for ideas on game mechanics, ideas, and opinions. (Maybe start a new topic somewhere...?)

 

Question 1: Will there be a decent AI? One that won't try to follow you when you fall down a hole and die?

Question 2: Will there be two-player?

Question 3. Will there be a story mode?

Question 4: Will there be an online mode?

Of course, you don't have to answer these, but it'd be appreciated.

 

 

Mechanics/Ideas/Preplanning

(Just some things to consider, I'm not asking anything. Also, you might want some paper and a pen to write this down)

 

 

• How many characters?
• Who are the characters?
• What are all of the characters' moves/attacks?
• If any, what is each character's Ability/Final Smash/Desperation Move/etc?
• What are all of the battlefields/stages?
• What is the story of the game, if any?
• What is the overall mood? Bright? Moody? Dancy/Fun?
• What are all of the game mechanics?
• What kind of art is there?
• What kind of music is there?
• Etc.

That's just a few things to thing about. Also, on this page, it gives some great advice on keeping players playing, making gameplay fun, and some other stuff. I'd recommend checking it out when you have time. Anyway, I've just reached the 1,500 characters mark, so this post is done. Hope you got some usefulness out of it. Good luck on your game.

EDIT: I also remember using this forum a few years ago, if you need someone to help. Though you've probably already been there.

No

I plan on getting some accurate voice actors,  & some composers
