Description

As April 1st is over, I guess I can shed some light into the video I did.  
For quite some while now (over several months on and off), Ive been working a game framework built on Moai SDK. Nearing the completion with some of the core features, I figured I could make a game with it. The original intentions were to use the framework for a (non-pony) project between me and my friends, but since that wasnt going anywhere I decided to make something on my own. Looking through some of my old projects, I found some ideas for a pony game I had started somewhere around the beginning of S2, and decided to run with that.  
Well see when I get around posting more about it.  
Quick checklist of things:  
  • The song during Pinkies march is Pinkie Glee by David Larsen (used with permission). The other song was the Teletubbies theme.  
  • Tools used are Notepad____ (writing the game logic in lua), Visual Studio 2010 (editing Moais C____ source code), TexturePacker (creating texture atlases for animations), and Flash (animations etc).  
  • Its most probably gonna be a platformer, as if we dont have tons of those around. Although Im treating this as a platformer test for a future game I want to get around making.  
    ps. I dont think its a possibility to make the performance test the video showcased into a screensaver due to Moai SDKs release model. Or at least itd be too annoying for me to try, and I want to preserve my source files up until a proper release at least.
