Pony Fantasy 6 Version 1.0
Where DOES the time go? Sorry to keep you all waiting, but here it is! I am so happy to have shared this with everyone, and I'm even happier to see how many people truly enjoyed it. This final (!?) patch contains some script rewriting that I felt preserved the drama of certain key scenes by eliminating some(!) distracting quotes and pop-culture references. Now don't get me wrong, I didn't crumple up my previous script and write a whole new one, I just put a few lines into my own words rather than parroting those of someone else. The above scene, for example, was rewritten for clarity. it's supposed to reveal a little more about Apple Bloom's altruism, and Trixie's cynicism and bitterness, but I think that point was lost in my original scene. Astute observers will notice the 'Past Sins' reference is left intact. Anyway, that's just about it. Many of you have asked what is next for the Pony Fantasy 6 team. The "team" is just me, QuickFix, and currently I am just going to enjoy some of the other upcoming projects such as My Little Investigations, Pony Chronicles, and Fighting is Magic. I never planned to do Pony Fantasy 6, so it'll be another moment of epiphany for the next project, and I'll be sure to let everyone know! For now, here's your final patch notes, and stay golden, ponies! v1.0 New sprites for all "ninja" type enemies New Sprites for all "brawler" type enemies New sprites for all "umbrella" type enemies New sprite for "Banner" New sprite for "Dadaluma" New sprite for "Iron Will" Minor touchup to Daring Do's sprite Princess Luna has brushed up on her "olde timey" grammar The "menu font" has been restored to the ff6 original (No, not the dialogue font!) The cutie mark crusaders have new portraits that better illustrate their higher ages than in the show. Credit to http://kraysee.deviantart.com/gallery/ for those! Princess Cadance's coat and mane have been updated to match the show better Sweetie Belle's sprite has a new manecut Rainbow Dash can now equip most "Party" Items Pinkie Pie and Scootaloo can now equip most knives. "Mirage Vest" has been renamed to "SneakingSuit" and has had its defenses raised slightly "IronHide" has been renamed to "ShiningArmor" and now negates Holy damage received "Invitations" have been added to the weapon shop in Mareanda The duration of "Frozen" effects has been reduced. Raised the threshold for "Near Fatal" status to 25% of max hp, up from 12.5% HP. The Paladin shield now also gives HP+ and Poison Dmg -50% Fluttershy no longer has a 1/16 chance to leave the party after random battles. The "Rainbow Band" now lets the player run faster in towns and dungeons. Faust's skills list has been trimmed so that they all fit in the menu properly. The following commands were removed - Summon (useless anyway), The Stare, and Gamble/GP Rain. The "@" symbol should no longer appear in the names of some items. DoomGaze's hp will no longer spawn at 8192 instead of 55,555, and he will heal to a certain minimum amount if he escapes. www.pony-fantasy-6.com
