Pinkamena: The Game! · 5:39pm Jul 31st, 2016
Everypony,
Not too long ago, I was perusing the google play store looking for items of Brony interest. I came across a number of curiosities, but the most interesting by far was a little game called "Pinkamena". Deceptive in its simplicity, Pinkamena combines single-player, mafia style deduction gameplay with our favorite little ponies, wrapped into a grim backdrop where you, the captain of the royal guard, must find the killers in a sleepy little town before it's too late.
Inspired, the idea to create a novelization of the game hit me, and I contacted the developer for permission to do so. The result is "Pinkamena: The Game", a weekly serial release planned for the next 2-3 months, that will chronicle the adventures of the game's protagonist, Hector Silvermane, as he seeks to uncover the truth about the sleepy borough of Little Hoofington.
What have I learned? Mystery stories take a lot of planning, especially when you're trying to stay true to the source material while still not making the 'whodunit' easy for those who are already familiar with the game. Its ready to go from head to hoof - I can only hope whomever chooses to strap into the seats will enjoy the ride.
At any rate, thank you to the developer for making this fun little game, and stay tuned for more!
