    This video is outdated.

    This project is hard to work on - on my own.
    I'm looking for a team of dedicated bronies to work on this fan-made project. To avoid cease & desist orders it will be entirely non-profit, but it may become something that will make you famous for.

    Story
    The Elements of Harmony, hosted by the tree of Harmony have been warped by the forces of evil, and by doing so have warped the main six as a result. Equestria is in grave danger. Each element must be recovered as must the tree of harmony if there is any hope of saving the world!

    Staff Required

    Artists
    Voice Actors / Impressionists
    Musicians / Remixers
    Programmers / Scripters
    Playtesters
    Storywriters (Advisory Roles)
    Planners (will discuss key decisions)

    If the position you were looking for is not above, please let me know as it may be available and I have forgotten to list it.
    Best Wishes for now,
    Sirus Star.

    PS: I will try and upload a more up to date video with better features soon.

    I have to admit, I have my own stuff to do but I am curious.

    What role do you play in this?

    I'm kind of like a compiler; I take the materials and put them all together. I do consider every individual to be equally important. Every game I see in production of MLP is either cancelled or under a cease & desist. I'd like to see an enjoyable project out there for us bronies; it would be especially useful between seasons to wet our thirsts with. It's always been an interest of mine to create a My Little Pony RPG, and maybe with the talented help of the community we can make it happen.

    A lot of RPG games out there become drab because the game is driven by the battling. I believe a good RPG is driven around the characters and the story. It is my aim to have and a story that has both fast-paced adrenaline action moments and emotionally deep interactions between characters, and character growth.

    Music is a huge part of any game, and as such; it would be nice to have specifically designed music for this game to make it more enjoyable and more immersive.

    I am willing to commission people for the music at my own expense should no volunteers arise. This is a project I’m willing to devote considerable time to, and I know there will be others out there who will be just as passionate about the show as I am. I realise the demonstration doesn’t entice much, but with some hard work, it could become a masterpiece.

    [Edit]
    I'll be doing a lot of artwork, writing myself too. But I feel that if we all put our great ideas together, it will make it an even better project.

    ALL WORK IS BASED ON A COMMISSION-BY-COMMISSION BASIS.
    You will not be asked to do ANYTHING for free and you can set your own price for each piece of work.

    *bump*
    The project has been put on ice as my lead artist has decided to leave the project due to hiatus problems.
    I'm looking for a new artist to draw MLP-themed backgrounds and possibly sprites / charecters.
    I'll be doing the tilesets and the little annoying things on my own.

    I've decided to make the game completely free to play to avoid copyright issues.
    There's also been significant changes in the game's look.

    I'll post a very old screen grab here. Work hasn't been progressing much because I've been on my own for a long time now
    and thus progress is slow, along with college and other commitments slowing me down.

    I'm also looking for a proof reader to help me with the story, as I have great ideas but not so great grammar and pacing.

    Let me know if you guys are interested. I'm also working on custom tilesets for the dungeons, towns, and other maps.
    As the basic RPG Maker ones look awful.



    There has been several original songs already composed and finished for this project, that i've put my own funds into.
    The music itself is enough to get me pumped up so I hope you will be too.

    I could voice act, though I have an odd voice, people have often complimented me for the different ranges I can do.

    I could really use some help, I emailed the author of Lost and Found, since it's a wonderful story that I could make an amazing game on but since the author
    never got back to me I don't really have permission to use it. So any ideas would be amazing.

    I have a story I'm working on now, that I might use. It involves Rainbow having to choose between her friends and her heart. As in the things that she believes in.

    Her friendship is put to the test, when her new Wonderbolt comrade wrongfully discharged from the military for saving Rainbow's life.

    Her friends take a negative view of Rainbow's saviour because he was discharged dishonourably no matter what the reasons are behind it.


    Even though the Twilight was aware of the prejudice in the Military this young stallion suffered for being “different”.


    Rainbow calls her friends out, telling them that it is not what she expected from them, especially Twilight who was the Princess of Friendship.

    In retaliation for Spitfire abusing her power in Rainbow's mind; she turns in her wings stating that, "Soarin always told me the Wonderbolts look out for

    Each other, but when one of our own disobeys an order to do exactly that - and saves another comrades life, you dishonourably discharge him because

    He went against orders?"


    "I've always been here if you guys need me, and the one time I need you, you turn your back on me."


    "This is not the Wonderbolts that I looked up to as a filly, and it certainly isn't the Wonderbolts I thought I was joining."


    Rainbow and new comrade decide to exile themselves from Equestria and leave there friends behind only for the main six, now five, to peruse them in hopes of mending their friendships and repairing things between Rainbow and the Wonderbolts. But Rainbow and her new comrade have other plans, unaware of the five perusing them.


    The road is filled with dangers, putting not only the couple at risk, but the five giving chase.

    Sorry for the long post, but I'd love to hear your ideas <3

    Huh, this seems neat, I' be interested in helping, depending on what is needed at this point, or if the project is still a thing.

    At the moment the project is on ice because I lack an artist to help me with the tilesets. I have attempted to do it myself, but I'm not an expert at image manipulation/editing and can't quite get it right. Doing everything myself up until this point has been very draining and discouraging.

    I really want to get this project started though, computer issues have slowed down progress too as upgrading to Windows 10 stopped a lot of my editing programs from running properly so I had to downgrade my system, back to Windows 7. I'm in the process of reinstalling drivers, before I install Audacity and RPG Maker again.

    I really want to try to push this software to the edges, cause I'm no programmer, but I certainly want to make this game not only look good, but feel amazing to play.

    Still Needs:
    - Artist
    - Proof Reading / Story Advisor

    Will need later:
    - Voice Actors / Music Composer

    First off, what positions still need filled. Second, what language does the code need to be, as in Lua, Python, etc.... Thirdly, deadlines? How fast do I need to work? I do have school work, so I need to know to schedule my work on this.
