Spike's Revenge & Lyra's Rampage by RoTexun - More Pony DOOM-likes
For some reason, we just can't get a break from pony games with guns, particularly DOOM-likes. We have here two very short but sweet games about a dragon going on a slaughter for his waifu and a schizo going on a slaughter for her husbando, respectively.
The former game features our favorite purple reptilian going on a vengeful genocide — no, we're not talking about Barney — against the diamond dogs and a mysterious other antagonist group to rescue his kidnapped waifu, Rarity. The story is basically non-existent, besides the beginning cutscene displaying Spike's grief, which in combination with the extremely muscular depiction of him on the title screen, leads me to the conclude that he binge-ate gems all day to become like that.
The latter is the real highlight, telling Lyra's heart-wrenching "rescue" mission of the newly-discovered human in Equestria. Bon Bon kindly gives her the location to the S.M.I.L.E. headquarters, to which Lyra gratefully responds by stealing and crashing her car on the way to the destination.
Lyra's Rampage is an incredible adventure, with masterfully rendered and voice-acted cutscenes, spanning several unexpected encounters with foes and allies alike, and journeys through worlds which will challenge your capability to withstand the vast absurdity of the game more than your gaming skills.
You can also watch them on our YouTube channel, though they are so short there's little reason not to play them yourself.
For some absolutely perplexing reason, these games are EXTREMELY difficult to record, which is most likely the fault of the Easy FPS Engine. The ONLY way I was able to record these games was running them in borderless windowed mode, with OBS running as admin, using a Game Capture with
SLI/Crossfire Capture Mode (Slow)
