[Chiptunesday] Frozen Night - Crystal Empire Board

For this week's Chiptunesday, we're going in a slightly different direction, as this track isn't actually chiptune at all! It is, however, a track specifically made for a pony fangame, a circa 2013 Mario Party spinoff titled My Little Party, that never materialized. Luckily for us, though, what was completed of the soundtrack certainly did! To that end, the game-that-wasn't's talented composer Frozen Night brings us this and one other self-described "relic" made for the game, naturally named and for and well representing their respective boards.
While it's a definite shame that the game never came to be, at least we have these wonderful stage themes to listen to, and that absolutely counts for something!

[Chiptunesday] Thunder-Dash - Megamare's Theme

For this week's (slightly late, doesn't that bode well) Chiptunesday, we're going to just...try and ignore the giant, yellow OC and enjoy the track at-hand with Thunder-Dash's "Megamare's Theme"! I'd have at least thrown in some relevant profile links, but as far as I could tell their entire presence is pretty much Pony.fm exclusive, so.
Admittedly, I'd like to throw in some nice commentary about the actual track itself that's a little more detailed than "good beeps", but as someone with zero (0) understanding of music, I'm a bit stuck on that front. Apologies in advance for the lack of insightful commentary while I try to figure something out for these!

[Chiptunesday] Starlight - Pony-Bit Beatdown

So, hello and welcome to a little something that we like* to call Chiptunesday! Admittedly, the terrible pun in the title and the embed above kinda sorta completely give away what we're going to be doing in these posts, but hey, I'll break it down anyway: Chiptunesday is a new, recurring feature here on Equestria Gaming dedicated to showcasing all of the raddest colorful-horse-related-and-inspired chiptunes that this wonderful fandom of ours has created, served up hot and fresh (er, relatively; some of these tracks are a bit old) every Tuesday!
Kicking things off on our inaugural Chiptunesday, we have this lovely little track above credited to an artist named "Starlight," which is actually the collab alias of the slightly more familiar fandom musicians Proctra (same channel) and PegasYs. While I can't speak to any technical aspects of the track, I can at least say that it's ridiculously catchy, and it'll definitely be stuck in my head for a good while to come, haha!
* "Like" perhaps being something of a strong word, but both myself and Lex (especially myself) have something of a weakness for awful puns and wordplay, and for lack of anything better, "Chiptunesday" won out.
