OMG My Little Pony Fighting Game?! (Review)

Fighting ponies. Oh my God, this is so adorable; I can’t handle it. How do I even find stuff like this? I don’t have time to play this! I need to be on SWTOR 2.7 update on the PTS! But look how cute…

I found My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic on GameInformer.com, because the article was alluringly titled: Fan-Made My Little Pony Fighting Game Available To Download. How could I not read the article? Then look at the pictures? Then watch this cute freakin’ video?

I had to have the game. I downloaded it for free (link is in the Game Informer article)! The keyboard controls were a little confusing, and I’m still failing pretty hard, but ahhhhhh! I was having kind of a bad-ish night, and this was full of so much happy! (Can’t even speak proper English when I talk about cute things.)

In a little bit of seriousness though: In character selection you can choose to play one of the Mane 6, who all have their own special moves and combos. You can also change their colors which is awesome!! As far as I can tell from watching the video, the combat is pretty cool, and each pony has their own special moves. I love how Applejack has a lasso, and Fluttershy has her bunny… very nice touch. The music also sounds very happy. You can play by yourself, but I also think that there is some kind of multiplayer option. I have barely figured out basic controls yet, so multiplayer is beyond me…

I don’t know how much time I want to spend learning how to play this, but I want to get to it eventually. Of course, this game looks like it has some serious copyright issues, and I’m not entirely sure if I can play the game offline and keep it forever. I have no idea, but it’s on my computer, so it should work forever after, right?

Basic Keyboard controls for My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic

Start = Whatever you have as “A” in your keyboard controls

ESC = Go back

Everything else you can pretty much figure out by customizing your keyboard controls in the toolbar, which is only visible for me in windowed mode. To go back to windowed mode (if you were like me and got super excited to play ponies in full screen), just press Alt+Enter.

I apologize for the temporary insanity.
