Remember the dinosaur from Chrome when you don't have Internet? This is him now. From gameplay perspective this is mainly about ponies jumping and trying to avoid the fences. But as you know, this is a little bit cursed this time. I have played Inscryption before this game, so I knew what to expect from this developer and was not dissapointed. At times, this game feels like proto-inscryption, with some ideas and twists already there, but with execution pretty minimalistic and simple. But anyway, that was a fun time. I didn't notice how the time passed, the same premise keeps being fun with a lot of new variations that make it not just interesting, but even...funny? This game tries to be scary with all these fourth-wall-breaking sequences and changing shapes faster than you get bored, but these things made me smiling on how creative such a simple game can be! This is definitely a good start to Daniel Mullins Games if you have never played his games before. Now I'm waiting for Pony Island 2 and can't imagine how insane it will be!

Such a cool and unique concept. I couldn't even really describe what this is about. It's so different and complicated but also not? You would just have to play it, and I would ABSOLUTELY recommend doing so. Such an interesting story and concept to uncover. Every time you thought you had it, you didn't.
