Despite the name leading us to believe that it'll feature gameplay similar to the Age of Empires series, Hopeabandoner is evidently aiming for his RTS to be more like the Starcraft series, which kind of disappointed me since I'm rather fond of the former. There's also some plans for "original elements", which probably have something to do with unit customization (something that's been available since 1999 in Warzone 2100, along with a crapton of other RTS games). Even so, the pony fandom doesn't have enough real time strategy games and it would be nice to actually see one get finished for once, so...

Follow the tumblr, I guess?

It seems that the developers of PonyCraft have decided to completely rewrite their game in C++, which means that development will probably take much longer than it would have before. To make up for it though they've released a brief update video showcasing Twilight Sparke's new abilities and voice acting by the talented Rina-chan. Not much, but at least it's something, right?

Anyhow, you can find the video update below the break. I was originally going to put it at the top of the article but figured that you would like to see the game's fabulous logo in all its glory.

This is part 1/9 of PonyCraft's livestream recording from Pon-E3. You can find the rest of their stream at their Youtube channel. Enjoy.

Now that PonyCraft's stream is over (you'll be able to see it later at http://www.youtube.com/user/MLPPonyCraft), they've elected to show some concept art from the game, all of it having to do with changelings. You can find that after the break!

The team behind PonyCraft will be livestreaming at  http://www.justin.tv/alccarion for Pon-E3. Hope to see you there! The stream should begin in a few minutes, barring unforeseen technical difficulties. You can check the game out at their forms here http://ponycraft.forumatic.com/.
