In the #BattleGemPonies Arrival Story, Alpha ponies will appear after you've caught their base form. Come back to these same spots in the postgame and you may find new Alphas of the other local species in the area.

(As well as Alphas of the 3 starters...)

We made a scene validator tool today that tells us exactly which NPCs are misbehaving and how to fix them. #madewithunity

There are SO many ponies in this Professor intro cutscene 😂 #screenshotsaturday

We really wanted to show off the variety during the first impression and introduction to the world of #BattleGemPonies! 🐴💎

Here's a mysterious bug that's persisted for years. Gotta figure out what tells the Tsunami particle effect to bounce off enemies like that. And why it only happens SOMETIMES. 🌊

(No other special move particle effect has this quirk.)

It was important for us to have multiple save files per game.

One for a first playthrough.

One for experiments and self-imposed challenges.

One for letting someone else play without messing up your main file.

Putting your opponent to sleep is a dirty trick, but an effective one.🥱😴
