For the game? Well, Green and his girlfriend(Pink) are on a leisurely walk when suddenly an evil pony runs through and kidnaps Pink. Green chases the Pony and finds himself in a field, surrounded by evil, pink, bloodthirsty ponies with nothing but a machine gun. As you progress on your quest, Green meets some different kinds of ponies - the normal pink pony, Pegasi that are faster and stronger, undead skeletal ponies who are extremely hard to kill, and the evil Pony lord and his colleagues. He also runs into some very interesting items that he salvages from dead ponies(Of course dead ponies have items inside of them... duh...). The game is a top down shooter and is extremely fun, and I think a port to the iPhone would be hilarious.
I still have like 5 more levels, optimization, bug fixes etc. And it's sadly only for windows, unless you can get exe files to work on a mac somehow But for the bug fixes part, gimme your email and I can make you a beta tester for it. Well,m if you have a windows
Hmm, what's your email? PM me. You can be a beta tester for Attack of the Ponies. Ooh and upsidedown, the port for the iPhone would be because I already made it for computers(Windows specifically until I get it published for free play online).

Holy Crap. I just had an idea from all of this... Ponies... Green Unicorns... Warrior... Blood... Genius.
Well, technically speaking, no game would be the same with ponies as it was before How about you just go to walmart and splurge on my little ponies. Then come back. Make a new game. Without ponies.
I sorta agree. Forget the Ponies. And if you want, buy a pack inside the game for a Pony Mode. But The main Version should be a Warrior dude. This could attract a wider audience. Also, Can I be a beta. I'll send you my email.
Ok, here's how much My friend Zack and I like ponies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFeW_ab7tQc And since it wouldn't destroy, most of my games have evil ponies you have to kill in them. It's been an inside joke for a while.
