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.)

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.

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

This ones a spinning glob being lobbed!

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