Personally I would not want to go the mobile game route. I know it's a popular choice for a lot of developers but most of those mobile games are platform runners or builders... which the builder games lose my attention fast due to how much you are limited.You'd also need to watch out for copyright content, because while Hasbro has in the past claimed to have lost copyright to a lot of pony stuff, well we see what is being licensed out for G1 merch.I play on PonyIsland and really it's not the kind of game most people will be looking for as it's more of a breeding game that is like but not like Hworse, little closer to Wajas but not really.It's kind of hard to say what style of game would work for G1 MLP... other than going the normal route of builder or runner or collector games.
I want a gritty combat game with a dark story that makes players sad to encourage them to save Dream Valley.
Are you talking about if they had a G1 video game back in the day they were relevant, or if one could be made now?A couple years ago I saw a clip of a racing fangame with G1 ponies and a very stock-looking environment, I can't seem to find it now D:
I'm majoring in computer science and know multiple languages! Unfortunately for everyone though, I am a busy college student so I probably would have a hard time actually getting around to making a game any time soon. I have certainly kicked the idea around for making a free fanmade My Little Pony RPG just to practice my skills. Nothing that would actually grab Hasbro's attention ideally, haha. I always liked the idea of a top-down RPG with loads of recruitable characters you can recruit through countless methods depending on which pony it is. I can dream!
Yes let's defeat the Smooze! Either defeat parts of it, beat it back slowly, or find key items to destroy it to complete the game. And a collecting aspect would be neat, though not something that suggests collecting everything. More like "I've seen THESE ponies".
Yeah, Minecraft is pretty great I would like to have the game not on Minecraft because some people just don't have it. Anyway, here is a more detailed explanation of my main town building idea:SpoilerMy Pretty Pony would welcome you into the world like Prof. Oak. You would then be launched into a tutorial. You would already have the Collectors Pose ponies in your Ponyland town. They would give you the tutorial and explain how they need help because Tirac used the Rainbow of Darkness to trap the ponies and land in darkness. Each one would have a building/house that you would need to build to learn the basics. Building comes from resources you could get from mini games based on locations from the various canons. After you build things and get the town running, you could clear your first patch of darkness and find some Year Two ponies. You then move through the years of G1 with My Pretty Pony's help when you need it. Eventually you will have a bustling Ponyland with lots of different locations, mini games to play to get lots of stuff, lots of different ponies and types of buildings, and other stuff too. Building would include playsets like the Pretty Parlor where you could dress us your ponies and the show stable where you could level up your ponies and other buildings too like gardens and farms. Of course, these are just details that can be changed! Just a more detailed explanation
