Ponygame commission slots are open!

Makin' dat clipclop gaem!

As I say, the commission slots for this are open! Here's a still, for those who don't know what this is about.

Basically, this  is a small minigame I'm making through Unity that can be played  standalone...but, ideally, will be added into the Thrallworks game  proper in due course as side-content of sorts.

The  racing part game will look and play a lot like the Brantsteele  Hungergame Simulator found here:  https://brantsteele.net/hungergames/disclaimer.php   with headshots of  the ponies and descriptive text detailing what's happening in the race.  There'll also be a 'training' part where you make a selection of options  between races to try and pivot the pony into a different skillset for  the next race, which might require different strategies depending on  terrain, etc.

The downloadable game will have  you in charge of just 1 pony of your selection for a season of races, to  guide their training and the rest. However, I will also be running a  game on my discord server, where several 'Sponsors' can compete against  each other, get sketches and other additional content!

Here's how it's going to work development-wise.

• There's 12 ponies (1 already decided on as you'll see in the image)
• 3 of these Pony thralls $5 peeps will be voting on and for to include - this vote will be taking  place tomorrow, but if you're a patron of mine at any level, you can  leave a message on one of the patreon threads to have your character  included in the vote.
• An additional 3 will be decided on by $10 patrons.
• The remaining 5 slots will be Commission Slots at £75 apiece. This includes the costs for a 'sponsorship' of their chosen pony, as well as:
  • The pony being included in the game
  • Getting  all relevant artwork for the pony that comes with being in the game,  currently involving idle animations and various expressions (as well as  expressions can be made around a bit, hohoho)
  • Able to suggest abilities for said pony (though it's up to me to balance them vs. other ponies)

A sponsorship of a specific pony will also be sold seperately on gumroad (after the ponies have been decided on), costing £15 apiece, and a sponsorship will get you:

• The chance to choose the 'alt colours' for the Pony to be included in the game.
• The ability to pick the pony's training regimin every week in the Discord game and resolve the events that happen to them.
• To  pick one of the available 'stable' names to which this racepony belongs  (think of it like the Wipeout teams) which will affect available  equipment and the league-points tables (may want to discuss this with  other sponsors if you want to work together).
• A say in how the  pony's 'project file' is constructed- what image is drawn for it, how  the Instructor handled them, if they were difficult, etc.
• Access  to the 'sponsors' channel on discord (if you're not a $10 patron  already) where I'll be discussing and testing alphas of the game before I  try making a full-on discord channel for running the tournament.

If you want to co-sponsor a pony with another person that can be arranged, just contact me about it.

Enjoy!
