Apologies for the delay. But unforeseen life events have delayed the release of BGP's Alpha1 release by a couple days.

Every attack in #BattleGemPonies is made up of a series of particle effects. ✨

This ones a spinning glob being lobbed!

Got a whole handful of features done today. It's really nice when our second programmer soars overseas to us and we get to go HAM all weekend on the project. Feels like a real indie studio with the three of us giving it our all in the same room.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

It's an interesting challenge getting ponies of varied size to fit onscreen together. #gamedevelopment

Each pony has DOZENS of expressive animations. That's why it takes so long to get each one from single concept sprite to finished in-game. (Aseprite's the tool used to get these pixels moving around so nicely.)

Getting particle systems like this to work was surprisingly tricky. Especially when it came to making it all flip properly when the opposite combatant uses the same attack.

A new quest celebrating Dead Pets Unleashed just entered your quest log!

Dead Pets Unleashed is a rock feminist adventure where you play as a demon named Gordy (the bassist of the punk band Dead Pets.)

The same attack can come in different colors depending on the pony using it. #pixelart #animation #mlp #indiegamedev
