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

One of the most common lower level Status attacks in #BattleGemPonies is Death Glare.

It's pretty powerful too, especially early on when stats are all small numbers and GP is most precious. #pokemon #mlp #rpg

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

#BattleGemPonies is gaining new features fast, but we really need to test them more because softlocks and crashes are way too abundant.

How did we EVER get this far without using a hi-res vertical monitor? Royal really sold me on the concept for #gamedev & #unityengine

Moves like Wonder Bolt here are an example of the 2010s brony era DNA embedded into this game. ⚡

You can hardly tell in pictures, but these monitors have completely different color settings and it changes the feel of the Peridot Woods map so much it's crazy. 🌳

REJOICE! For all Saved Files shall now survive the approaching update... ☁️➡️📦 Basically, we coded a thing so nobody's save data gets scrapped or corrupted when the DLCs drop. #UnityDev #gamedev #debug

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.

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...)
