A net.legend comes to completion in the not-quite-Pony fighting game… Them’s Fightin Words Indiegogo ending 10/21/15 [Before I get too deep in the weeds, I should point out, top of the page, that this game is on Steam Greenlight, where much more game-savvy reviewers will take it apart for your reading pleasure…] The story is almost ..
Tabletop
High-flying adventure and hoofs storming the beaches in a pulp-inspired, 1940s ponyverse… Roan Kickstarter ending 9/8/15 Pulp-inspired gaming is, in that very specific sense of the word used by tabletop RPG publishing, pretty big right now, with Spirit of the Century making the rounds in indie gaming and Piazo’s Pathfinder game dipping a toe into the genre ..
Highlights
This week’s illustration is from A Peacock Among Pigeons, on Kickstarter After a week filled with some really amazing projects, this week seems a little more chill. So I’m going to take five minutes out to look at a project which isn’t remarkable–or even necessarily likely to succeed–but I do like the way they’re handling things. ..
Writing
A whimsical children’s story of a unicorn trying to find its place in a mythical world… The Grumpy Unicorn Kickstarter ending 4/10/15 Just a short callout for an adorable project, with children’s books it’s easy to write a post that’s longer than the book itself. So keeping it brief. The Grumpy Unicorn is a story of ..

An MMORPG land of predators, prey, and hidden magic… Isles of Eventide Kickstarter ending 2/8/15 Conceptually, I love a non-anthro MMORPG. They’re works of art–by their nature and the “dolly dress-up” functionality of the MMO genre they encourage a riot of complex fur design and species twiddling that they become more of a visual collage ..
Costuming
Collectable medallions with a broad range of art… Paw Coins Collectible Coins Kickstarter ending 11/24/14 The word for the day is “Exonumia.” One of the things I hope to see in endlessly refreshing Kickstarter is the next big con craze. And I know I won’t see it coming, or I’ll totally get it wrong. I ..
Photography
A photographic romp in robber masks and vintage sets… Horace and Agnes: A Love Story Kickstarter ending 7/13/14 This is a gentle sort of project. You’ll recognize at least one of the characters from “Horace and Agnes: A Love Story” from the Internets. Horace’s rubber horse head is practically a meme on its own, ..

It’s December, and if that very special and perhaps a little depraved someone in your life needs the gift of a big-breasted transgender lupine Choose Your Own Adventure, amply-endowed unguligrade gym bunnies, frolicking and buxom pony satire, or digimon with riding crops and possibly stiletto heels, Offbeatr has something for you. Also, your SO’s needs are ..

Rizzo Michelle’s Custom Art Doll Ponies Indiegogo It’s sort of a case of parallel evolution. Once there was a mom who saw some vintage My Little Pony figures, and said, “…I could make art out of that.” Which, of course, is what the Brony community has been doing with Friendship is Magic for the last ..
