Friendship Melody - Rhythm game with pony songs + associated MLP Forums event

Friendship Melody is a cross-platform, guitar-hero-like browser-based rhythm game with mobile and controller support. It's available exclusively on the MLP Forums, featuring 5 classic pony songs listed below:
Yes, those are my scores on all the tracks. I really don't like rhythm games and my performance reflects that
The game has returned for 3 weeks, lasting until the 11th of June (I sure hope that does not mean it will be gone forever after that). Alongside it is its corresponding event on the MLP Forums, which awards you an exclusive badge for completing the two new levels, those being "The Magic of Friendship Grows" and "Rules of Rarity," provided you have an account (as the game has the MLP Forums account system integrated into it) and submit your score in the comments of the event's thread.
Now, unless you're an active user of the site—meaning you probably already knew about the game—the badge is of lesser importance. But who knows? Maybe you’ll like it on the MLP Forums. An admin replied to me and had a casual chat with me via private messages immediately after I created my account. That’s some exceptional treatment for random users!

Spike's Mundane Adventures Trilogy by horror_and_oates

Spike's Mundane Adventures is a trilogy of fetch quest adventure games created by horror_and_oates — also known as sonicboy112 — presenting the rare moments when the bravest, most glorious dragon... gets a day off from Twilight.
The series consists of three games:
  1. Spike's Day Off
  2. Spike's Day Out
  3. Spike's Time Off
During these rare breaks from helping Twilight, we see the mundane adventures Spike embarks upon during his free time, such as:
  • Getting a hot dog for a friend
  • Getting a gift for Twilight
  • Saving Trixie from homelessness and starvation and securing her a roof under her head
  • Going on a quest of discovering his place in the world and where he belongs
  • Wait wha—WIND THAT BACK—
Just an average weekend, really.
The series follows Spike during his days off from helping Twilight and displays his inability to get any real time off as he constantly takes it upon himself to solve the problems of pony kind on his own (you see, he is not solving Twilight's problems, so it's totally different). These tasks seem simple initially but end up taking Spike on increasingly wackier adventures from a cast of familiar ponies who resemble Looney Tunes characters more and more as the story develops.
It is amidst this that the foundation for some remarkably touchy moments is laid upon, with each installment building up to strikingly touching moments like the bonding between Spike and Trixie over the efforts of making ends meet and Spike's journey to discover his place amongst pony kind or dragon kind.
The series is relatively linear with very light puzzles, which makes for a relaxing experience combined with the serene soundtrack plus the lovely chibi and chubby artstyle.
If you wanna take a look at the games without playing, we also have full playthroughs on our youtube channel for each of them.

Pony Joust By Nicky Case On The Arcade + Our Mod!

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!

RoBorg's Pony Game Microsite

The site's main page used to have a menu for all the games, but it seems to have broken, so here are all the games listed out!

Derpy Silliness 1
Derpy Silliness 2
Derpy Silliness 3
Pinkie Pie Asteroids
Luna Lander
EPIC Starfield
Sweetie Belle... nothing weird here (EPILEPSY WARNING)
Boo Hoo - interactive music video
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:

Pony-Escape by PonyDevs

Supreme horse-game mazing n' gaming! Finished in 9.02 seconds.
This is a very simple maze game made by the PonyDevs community featuring rarity trying to escape randomly generated mazes... which sometimes are invisible... or while being stalked by the Smooze... or both. Your goal is to guide rarity through the monochromatic labyrinth into the black void on the right. rarity is clapping her hooves because she is so happy to be engulfed by the dark, empty void!
That is pretty much it. Not much more to say. Though I always like myself a some mazes, so this is my best attempt so far at speed-mazing (I just made that term up right now!). Timing starts the frame the new maze loads in and ends on the frame the "You Escaped!" text appears. Try to beat my time!

Cloud_Citadel

Cloud_Citadel, made by a Russian developer of the same name, is a tiny little pony platforming game where you dash to the finish as quickly as possible. There’s only one screen, so it’s incredibly short, but it’s fun to see how low of a time you can get!
If you’ve got a minute or two to kill, give it a whirl. My lowest time is 3.991 seconds, I’m sure one of y’all out there can beat that!

Catch The Mare

Catch the Mare is a fun, simple puzzle game for those who like mares and enjoy having to think in order to catch them.
Your objective is to keep the mare from running outside the bounds of the field by adding grey circles in her way to block her path. The mare will attempt to escape by dodging the obstacles you have placed.
There are over 14 mares to catch, each with a randomly generated image and message when you win! Perhaps you'll get lucky and one of them will show you their snowpity as a prize!
Will you succeed in capturing the mare? How many can you catch? Let us know in the comments!

EQG Game Catchup Post III

I just don't know what went wrong
art by uteuk
Hey there, folks! We mentioned two months ago that we'd do a catch-up post in a few weeks, so, uhm, here we are! We have a fair few games to go over today, and this may be the longest catchup article yet!
Also stay tuned, because many of the games listed here will be heading to the arcade soon™!

Flash is Kill - What's Next?

art by  亚凛酸
 


Hello horse friends, today we have a long-overdue update on the state of affairs. Specifically, what we want to do for the arcade now that Flash is no longer supported. If you're curious about our plans, you can find out more after the break!

UPDATE
The arcade can now be sorted by "Ruffle Compatible," which displays all games that are functional with the emulator, each of which should play in your desktop browser without difficulty! We will  continue to update the section as devellopment furthers and compatibility improves. 

Of course, HTML5-based games all run flawlessly, and there are developers who are converting their games to this format. We soon plan to include more of these and  futher expand the list of playable games!

Pony Town

Ponytown is a recent viral affair, that has been buzzing around tumblr and the imageboards in recent months.
Ponytown is a social HTML5 experience. I hesitate to say game, as there are not anything outside of walking around the green fields and socializing with other players. There are an extensive amount of customization around the pony you walk around as, from gender and mane styles, to accessories and all the different colours you could wish for.
It's hard to recommend it for its sheer gameplay value, but in the case of socialization, it is an entertaining little thing. You can switch the tiled playing field between grass and dirt by clicking, but I wouldn't say that counts as gameplay. This is usually where the viral or memetic twist snuck its way in, with people having found their own forms of entertainment, drawing whatevers in the grass for people to behold.
As it is, it's still very much in an alpha stage, constantly getting updated and getting new stuff and features added as we speak. Trees and rocks here and there, a new login system, all small additions towards the right direction.
As mentioned, it is an HTML5 endeavour, so it should work in every major browser. Take it for a spin if you are curious, have some friends to hang out with. I've even seen people use it as a virtual meet-up spot, so that's a very possible option as well. There are both a safe and an unregulated server, so I'd assume it is suitable for all ages.

Doli Incapax: Horse Lawyer




 With the popularity of the Phoenix Wright series (and the availability of case creators based on the games), it's no surprise that we've seen quite a few projects centered on combining the concept with My Little Pony. Among those is this little gem from Zoo977. Doli Incapax: Horse Lawyer is a charming one-case game made with one of the countless case creators, and like any good game of its type, the writing is top-notch. It's a game filled with OCs (in fact, outside of a small role from Rarity, no official ponies appear in the whole thing), but the characters are explored in a depth that rivals the games Horse Lawyer draws its inspiration from, and the game itself is equally enthralling.

 I'll probably be getting into a more in-depth review later when I have the time, but there's another story-centric game sitting in the submission box, as well as a few personal projects of mine to get to, so you'll have to take my word for it that the game is definitely worth the couple of hours of entertainment it gives you.

Pinkie's Balloon Trip


 Considering what's plastered across her flanks, putting Pinkie Pie in a game about balloons seems like a no-brainer. This game from Brian Bullock (which is listed as a beta, despite feeling quite complete) is basically a clone of the NES's Balloon Trip, but with ponies and an online scoreboard. The latter does wonders for replayability of the game, even if the mechanics of lower scores on a name overriding older, higher scores is a bit irritating. Regardless, the game is well-built for a clone game, and like the original, is a fantastic way to spend a few moments if you don't mind dying a lot.

Pinkie's Hyperactive Chat is Shutting Down


 Due to a lot of its moderators losing interest and real life getting in the way of development, the current owner of Pinkie's Hyperactive Chat has decided to pull the plug on his web-based MMO by the end of the week, much to the chagrin of its active playerbase. It's quite a shame, I know, but at least Lordcerii has the decency to wait until sometime around Friday evening to shut it down, giving players a chance to exchange contact information so they can keep in touch after the end if they so desire.

The original announcement can be found here.

Game: MLP Matching Is Magic


Some games grab you with graphics and a flashy intro, and others gradually grow on you until you're hooked. Surprisingly, I found MLP: Matching Is Magic to be the latter. The game revolves around a very simple concept: assemble pony-containing blocks into groups of three or more to eliminate them, a la Shariki (Bejeweled).

The twist is that there's no time constraint - rather, the number of pony types on the board increases based upon your previous matches until the rather easy game becomes an impossible one. Whenever you match a group of three for the first time, a block containing a new pony appears in its place, until you've worked your way through the Mane Six and beyond!

Pony Joust


Ok, I know it's tricky to stay angry at Rainbow Dash after this morning's episode - but in the season premiere, she knocked best pony flying in a jousting match. That sort of behavior is inexcusable.

Thanks to NutcaseNightmare, creator of Pony Wings, now you can make her pay! Um... if that's alright by you. You could also get knocked repeatedly in the mud. Engage in the sport of pegasi champions in this quick, sleek pony jousting game.

Gravity Pony


Happy U.S. Thanksgiving, everypony! Regardless of where you live, November's as good a time as any to eat good food and play pony video games. Because that's what this holiday is for... right?

Anyhow, Zilven Sparkle's whipped up a gravity-based pony minigame to keep you occupied. Help Twilight master gravity spells, and try to avoid falling to your doom for as long as possible. The game appears to use the same animation as the upcoming Super Smash Ponies, and looks great in practice. If you've got .exe download problems, the HTML5 version can be found here, although lag and graphical issues are to be expected.

Twilight Sparkle RPG (Working title) Video Demo and Public Alpha 1.0


This video is the third in the series chronicling the development of Fluttershy77's sandbox pony rpg. Although a ways from publication, the project shows promise - future development plans include a fully playable map of Equestria! Hit up the video above, and give the alpha a play to get a feel for the project. Then, if you're interested, give him a shout - he's on the lookout for spriters.

Beta: My Little Miner: Disturbance is Magic


My Little Miner: Disturbance is Magic (Beta)

Recently we posted about a fangame with the title My Little Miner: Disturbance is Magic that seemed to be centered around digging around for gems in a volcano. The creator said that he was releasing a beta soon, and it turns out that by "soon" he meant 4 four days later. So if you're interested in trying out this Flash/HTML5 fangame then head on over to http://mlm.blitzspace.com/ and give it a play. He also wants feedback on his game's beta so if you have any then send him an email over at BlitzProg@BlitzSpace.com.

Have fun!

My Little Miner: Disturbance is Magic



Recently we have been seeing an increasing number of game remakes with ponies added to them such as Megapony & Silent Ponyville, and continuing the trend comes My Little Miner: Disturbance is Magic which appears to be a remake of the iOS game Miner Disturbance. Pretty much it's centered around digging for gems under a volcano with a pony for a partner and will apparently use either Flash or HTML5 depending on what your browser supports (I prefer the latter). Pretty neat, eh? It'd be really great if we could include this game on the Arcade come release day, but we can't guarantee anything since in the end it is all up to whether the developers want their game included on the Arcade or not.

Pinkie's Hyperactive Chat

Or on the Equestria Gaming Arcade

Fan MMOs are sort of a rarity, especially when they are released in quick succession. It wasn't too long ago that MLP:Online was released, and even then it was just the single player mode. And all of a sudden out of the blue pops a brand spanking-new pony MMO that nopony has ever heard of and takes the crown for the first playable MLP MMO (and one of the first ever HTML5 MMO games). Mind you it's still in an early alpha state and doesn't have all the features of the final product (it lacks different hairstyles and races), but it's still quite worth playing already.

Why not give it a try, eh?
