It will no longer be based on the My Little Pony franchise.
Last month My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic was shut down after Mane6 received a cease and desist letter from Hasbro.īut the project was resurrected after My Little Pony producer Lauren Faust teamed up with the indie team to create the game in a form that doesn't step on any of Hasbro's hooves. In a post on the Mane6 website, the developers described the offer to use the Skullgirls engine as 'very exciting'. Lab Zero Games tweeted the offer over the weekend, and Mane6, the developer of the MLP fighting game, has followed up and confirmed it's the real deal. At the time of publication it's at $437,000. It will only do so if the Skullgirls IndieGoGo crowd-funding campaign reaches $725,000. The developer of fighting game Skullgirls will offer its engine free of charge to the developer of My Little Pony: Fighting is Magic for free, but there's a catch.
