This is the fastest post I have ever made by a long shot.

ADParty, also known as pinkiedemo, is an ancient pony fan game tech-demo by awesomedreamcoder. The game was first unveiled to the world in a demonstration video very humbly titled "walk on cloud" on April 4th, 2011, almost 15 years ago — possibly older than some people reading this.

The game, made in a custom game engine, with no source code available, was considered a remnant of the past, with only 4 videos ever uploaded of it by the creator, all in 2011.

Then, this guy, UlikDodikov reverse-engineered it, making it compatible with modern hardware and operating systems, reviving the original game as it was, and even going as far as to make a full mod replacing the entire boring plains and hills map with the Peach's Castle from Mario 64.

Travelling back to 2012 once again for another Flash game which has surprisingly never been featured before. This game features an unique gameplay style where you control two characters at once through in an sort of endless runner (though it feels more like an endless walker), multitasking to keep both characters from eating too many tree branches, along with Rainbow Dash herself having to keep FlutterShy from falling behind.

Surrounding this main gameplay loop is an admittedly awesome boss fight which reminded me of the awesome sprite animations of that same era, only unfortunately lacking any music to match the awesomeness of the boss fight and, most importantly, the shockingly brutal difficulty of this game.

Magic Project Friendship — that one with the ponies and the guns, if you forgot — has received an update with the new Arena mode, taking place 2 years before the main story line and putting you in the metaphorical shoes of Bon Bon as she trains to become the leader of the new S.M.I.L.E. under Twilight's rule with her direct supervision.

Please stop looking at me like that. It gives me the feeling that you are really into this.

The story follows Bon Bon working her way up from the bottom to regain her skills as the rightful S.M.I.L.E. leader after losing them during her retirement. The gameplay consists of fighting off waves of enemies in Twilight's Combat Training Program which she stole from Morpheus from the Matrix, a pocket dimension where all enemies and fights and deaths are purely simulations. During these waves your combat skills are tested against increasingly more stacked enemies, and some familiar faces too. Inbetween waves you will go to the armoury to spend your skill points, buy new weapons and recruit ponies into your own squad.

Also the ponies have big funny hats now.

Magic Project Friendship is a new mod of Madness Project Nexus. The mod released... today! This is an Equestria Gaming original!

Don't know what Madness Combat is? That maybe is for the better considering the theme of this site. Basically it's like little gray flour sack-looking ""people"" murdering eachother gruesomely... but now it is ponies.

Anyways.

The plot of the game follows Starlight Glimmer breaking Trixie out of jail after being imprisoned by Twilight for the Alicorn Amulet incident—as all good friends would do, obviously. We follow the two quirky mares safely outside Twilight's chambers where they encounter... changelings? The Mane 6 take note of this and split off to investigate, revealing that numerous of their least favorite villains are back again—despite having been reformed like 12 times before or something—and want REVENGE, WOW THAT IS SO SCARY shivers. They have learned from their previous encounters that the Elements of Harmony aren't very good at shutting up villains, so now guns will do the talking.

It is amidst this chaos that the princess herself, in-between the slaughter, feels inclined to lore-dump—EXPLAIN to us about her new project to make ponies more friendly to eachother, the titular "Magic Project Friendship", a spell which she plans to cast on every creature in and outside Equestria. Surely this won't be a major plot element which we will learn the unpleasant details of later, right. Totally and absolutely, but unfortuntaly Trixie disagrees, as she goes on to investigate on her lonesome the intricacies of this Project, because she just cares oh-oh so much about Equestria (she just wants revenge on Twilight Sparkle).

You can watch our playthrough to get an idea of the game on the channel:

I really can't make an exciting or verbose post about this. Go pet and play with them on the arcade.

Pony Joust by nutcasenightmare, now known as Nicky Case is a small HTML5 game in the same vein as Pony Wings from the same creator. You play as Fluttershy scared out of her little wings jousting (the pegasus equivalent of jousting) against Rainbow Dash to knock each other into the mud (or lava)! The game was made in HTML5 to enable modding, so, for you more edgy gamers, we have our own graphical overhaul just for you. Check it out!

The third and final batch of PixelShy games by DracoBlair are now on the arcade! The new games are:

• Orchestra - Repeat the song after Fluttershy... Yea, I honestly can't make this game seem more interesting than it is.
• Shake Your Tail - A rhythm game featuring classic brony music!
• Vertigo Maze - Lead Fluttershy through crazy spinning mazes! (preferably without getting motion sick in the process)
• Pegasus Express - Endless Runner with Fluttershy!

The second batch of PixelShy games by DracoBlair are now on the arcade! The new games are:

• Fours - Play Connect Four against Fluttershy (Warning: She is merciless!)
• Matrix Arcana V2.0 - A complex variation of the classic lights out puzzle where you need to clear the board while Twilight Sparkle compliments your (very clever) moves.
• Memory Tiles - Simple memory matching puzzle game with pony icons.
• Grooming - Fluttershy has been hurt! Clean her up of the scratches, dirt and twigs without causing hurting her in the process!

The first batch of PixelShy games by DracoBlair are now on the arcade! The new games are:

• Balloon Catcher - Control Fluttershy's little wings and catch as many balloons before the time runs out!
• Fashionista - Perfectly fill the given patterns with the pieces given to you!
• Pop Quiz - Test your knowledge of facts and MLP trivia with Cheerilee!
• Orchard Defender - Prevent the birds from eating all your fruit by shooting them down with seeds!

The PixelShy Series by DracoBlair was a Flash series of minigames featuring Fluttershy which were meant to culminate in a full game playing with and taking care of Fluttershy. The Flash End of Life may have had different plans for that, but archivists and Ruffle developers begged to differ, which is why in the upcoming days and weeks all of the (currently ruffle compatible) games will be rolled out to the arcade starting from tomorrow!

This is a wonderful gem of the past featuring 8 pony games and interactive experiences exuding raw 2012 energy. All of them are very short and sweet, but here is the rundown:

Over the past 14 years, there's been a whole heck of a lot of pony games that have come and gone. While there are plenty we remember fondly, and some that are still going strong to this day, the vast majority have been forgotten. Flash and HTML5 games, being browser based, are easy enough to preserve and keep in the public eye... but what of the countless ancient PC pony games that have long since faded from memory?

Welcome to My Little Longplays, a new site feature dedicated to full playthroughs of all of the fantastic pony games that time forgot! To start things off, we're heading back to the magnificent, far-off year of 2013 and having an intense battle against Fluttershy for the title of "Shhh!" World Champion in this game developed by Vanni. Who will win? You'll just have to watch and find out!

Somehow, this seems to have slipped under pretty much everyone's collective radars and that honestly completely baffles me. We're absolutely fixing that right this instant, though.

To say this is a bit of a surprise is absolutely an understatement! We've got ourselves a genuine port of the official, old-timey Hubworld pony game Adventure Ponies to Atari 8-bit computer line coming to us courtesy of the developer Gibstov. It's super satisfying to see these 8-bit styled games actually working on the appropriate hardware!

All the relevant information, including screenshots and a video of the port in action, can be found at the game's thread at AtariAge. We've also provided these below the break as per usual if you're not interested in poking through the thread! You can also play both the original game and Adventure Ponies 2 on the arcade if you're looking to play the original games, just a heads up!

Now there's something we just don't see very often around these parts! As the title implies (er, well, completely states), The Difference Between Us is a wonderful little Ren'Py-based visual novel from developer Robin Daydream covering the wonders and woes of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy's first date. While the concept is pretty simple, the developer's description promises and the game seems to deliver on (I only say seems as I've only had time to play through the game once thus far) there being plenty of variation; between the three possible routes through the date and three endings per possible route, there should be more than enough to keep you invested for at least a little while!

Admittedly, at least for me, jumping into a game that's all about shipping our favorite tiny, colorful horses can be just a tad bit uncomfortable on the surface, but once you're actually into the story (and experienced adorable overload!) it's definitely worth playing!

While we're admittedly a bit light on the news front so far these past few days, I think another small, conveniently-timed batch of previously overlooked horsegames could make up for it a little bit, don't you? This time around, we're guiding our favorite technicolor horses through some assorted shenanigans including malicious mansions, silly scribbles and the endless pursuit of pastries! Check 'em out below the break!

okay yeah i did in fact work the subtitle into the intro paragraph to pad it out. fight me about it in real life why don't you okay gosh.

It's been almost two years (wait, already? Wow!) in the making, but we finally have a sequel to the adorable Applejack Pony Petting Simulator! Mechanically-speaking, it's much the same as the last simulator, though it's tuned and tweaked slightly to make it more unique to Fluttershy's personality; for example, as EwoudCP states in the game's description, you have to earn her trust before anything else! Otherwise, you know the drill: pet the horse properly, and everything's wonderful! Continuously poke the horse in the eyes, though? I mean, you can do that, but come on, internet! I know you wouldn't do something like that, would you?

But really, all fun aside, it's pretty much everything you'd want in a colorful horse petting simulator. Very well done!

...What are you waiting for? Go click the link and pet the colorful horse, already! You know you want to!~
