Bronycon 2014 · 2:27am Jul 30th, 2014
Hey guys!
As some of you may know by now, I'm going to be at Bronycon this year to show a panel off! "But Grem," I hear you say, "what kind of panel are you doing?" To which I must respond: "What? You seriously aren't following me because of my writing, now, are you?"
But in all seriousness, this panel will be to show off one of the three games I'm on (and the one I'm the most proud of), Shattered Kingdom! For those of you who haven't heard of it, Shattered Kingdom is going to be a Tactical RPG based around a conflict between the Solar Empire and the New Lunar Republic. I'll follow the con up with a post including much more detail, but for now, if you want to follow our progress, let me introduce you to the wonders of social media! That's right, Shattered Kingdom has a twitter and tumblr account for your convenience. So go ahead and follow us on twitter @alicorngames and on tumblr at alicorngames/tumblr.com.
Also, if any of you are going to Bronycon, let me know! I would love to meet any and all of you if I can! If not, the panel will be recorded by Ponyville Live, though it is my understanding that they won't stream it. If you're there, though, or for some reason they stream it, it's on Saturday at 5:30p.m. in the Hall of the Stars.
Thanks for playing!
I'm heading to BronyCon! I'll try to make it by the panel, as I'm quite interested in the project.
...did....did you just fucking steal the intro to every completionist review in existence in text form?.....
holy shit you mean i finally have a way to check up on the progress of the game aside form commenting (which i can't do anymore because googletube) on that 1 hour long video on googletube of last year's panel that the shattered kingdom team hosted which i have no idea how i even came across? finally.....
there's still so much more i want to suggest/discuss about the game's conception/mechanics , but i don't have a tumbler/twitter either , so what would your suggestion be for that?....
and how can i be updated to know when to tune in to the panel? i assume it will be streamed yes?.....
and lastly , finally listened to these the previous day , should totally find a way to work these themes into the 2 main factions for the game somehow......

I've never seen a single review by the completionist.
So no.
As for following the game... get a twitter? It's honestly so simple and unobtrusive I regret not doing it earlier. If you don't want to do that, you can always message me on here. I'm basically the living database of what we're going to do, and I get lonely...
I forgot, Ponyville Live is recording all panels at Bronycon, but not streaming them. I'll edit this post to reflect that, and I'll release the updated one when the video is released.
I can say that the New Lunar Republic theme at the very least will be based off of Notacleverpony's "For the New Lunar Republic"... preferably with her sanction.

If Q&A runs overtime like it did last year, I will be taking further questions into the hall after the panel. If you want to apply, please come and talk to me! It always helps to meet the people I might be working with!
Will there be a Vid...even if there's not stream? That would be nice.
2328380
Alrighty, I'll see if I can make it! In person, though, I'm not very talkative. I can be quite shy. Haha.
2328782
Yes, Ponyville Live is still recording all the panels and putting them up online. If not, I've have some friends with the Cutie Art Crusaders who also offered to record the panel, so it'll be online one way or another.
2328380 oh.....
no i don't want to have any social media accounts , it's bad enough that i have an outdated gaybook account.....
indeed i would be delighted to company you and get some info possibly involvement of the project....
ok so when will this be?....
oh yes of course that would be grand as well , i have no idea where nacp disappeared to though . the last interaction i had with him/her was deleted along with the da account without a word like what 2 years ago now?
i want to be the first to know when god comes back......
also why wont other god reply to me at all? i've sent him so many messages and he keeps uploading new crap that nobody cares about but i wanna thank him for being the god of music that he is :c ......
....soooo insincere about that offer or just busy for the event today?.....
2338297
I'm... not sure what offer you're referring to? Either way I have been busy all weekend with the convention and will continue to be mostly unavailable until tomorrow evening.
2343029
k , was also talking to some of the artists that are on the project that im subbed to on da , but still i have yet to hear any word of the panel video being uploaded now , and the panel happened 2 days ago now :/ .....
2343073
I expect the panel will be uploaded in about one to two weeks from now. I don't really know, and I don't have any control over it. Ponyville live probably needs to process and edit all of the panels they recorded before uploading to youtube. Like I said before, as soon as it becomes available, I'll be putting an updated info blog post about the game up. Also, even if you don't want to make an account for tumbr or twitter, I still suggest checking them periodically, as they'll be the most complete sources for information about the game.
2343391 whaaaaaaaat 2 weeks? why didn't they record each panel individually so they wouldn't need to edit it? useless.......
i plan to , thought currently there's only like 3 posts on the tumbler....
soooo was that offer insincere then?.....
2343398
If you're leaving any notes or comments I'm not receiving them.
2347331 any notes?....
2347383
Er, I meant private messages.
2347405 er no i haven't , why was i supposed to pm something?....
2347414
As in, if you leave a question or comment about the game in here or in pm's to me I will do my best to respond to it. Otherwise, check tumblr about game updates. I'm not sure where this miscommunication is coming from.
2347645 heh , kinda an interesting situation that brought this about , so first you make the offer , and then i make my second reply asking about other stuff , then wait several days for a reply , then i asked to confirm your offer , and you forgot what we were talking about , so i restated it , and then you replied talking about the panel and sites and not the offer , so i asked to confirm the offer again , to which you finally did confirm it , joy.....
only sad to say now that that has been confirmed i can't actually do anything particularly useful with it right now as i have no idea what state the project is in right now since the only content i've seen of it was from a panel a year ago :l , so i wont be able to ask anything meaningful till i do.....
i suppose the only thing i could get your input on is on the input i gave in the comment of that video a year ago......
2348168
That's why I referred you to the panel and sites; not a lot of information is available right now, or we are not ready to release it, so those are the places to look for new stuff. When the panel is released then I'll put it on here, until then I'm not really going to release any new information outside of twitter and tumblr.
Also, yeah I got sidetracked. I've been at Bronycon. It's more than a bit distracting.
2348247 ok sounds good , 2 weeks right?....
