    Realize I haven't breathed a word about this, and that I'm generally silent on the blog side of Fimfiction as it is, but I'm attending Everfree Northwest this year!

    Glimpses 2 - Now Complete

    Though it was a day late, hopefully, it's not a dollar short. I've posted the final chapter of Glimpses 2! I hope everyone enjoys the last chapter and enjoyed the story as I whole. I would also like to thank everyone that submitted suggestions to my blog about a month ago. The anthology would not have been nearly as interesting without your input!

MLP Gameloft Game - My Ponyville · 2:00am Nov 24th, 2012

So with some time, energy, money, and some hacking (changing the system clock in airplane mode and the PonyLiberator.exe from Reddit), this is the Ponyville I've managed to build in the Gameloft MLP game.

This has all the shops and all the ponies, including Luna. Though, I will say, you likely won't be able to find everypony. Why? Because to make this single giant image I took about two dozen pictures using the iPad's screenshot feature and then had to stitch them all together in photoshop. Because of this, and because the ponies in this game don't like to stay in the same place for more than five seconds, some ponies managed to avoid the camera while others got captured multiple times. Other still are partially captured because they were on the edge of the frame when screenshots were captured.

And thus, after all the time and energy I put into this, I decided to capture it all in case something happens and I loose my save. (Knowing my luck, highly possible.)

So, what do you think of my Ponyville?

:applejackunsure: I can't tell, i haven't played

I have but two questions for you:
One, is that correct to canon?
and Two, WHAT IS YOUR GAMELOFT ACCOUNT! I SO WANT TO FRIEND YOU!

It's big...

Now...
Tap ALL the trees! :pinkiecrazy:

532298
No, it's not canon. This is just how I thought things looked nice (canon would require a means of putting Zecora in the everfree forest and would require so many apple trees.)

:rainbowderp:
my ponyville is still a small backwater down. i only just got AJ back in town:fluttercry:

532306
Okay . . .
You didn't answer my second question.
...More like a statement.
Or command. :twilightblush:

Is this a strictly ipad? The only thing apple products are good for (in my not so modest opinion) is as targets at 500 meters!

I lost it when I saw Braeburn checking out Celestia :rainbowlaugh:

532313
I've got it on android.
Also...:rainbowderp: you make my pathetic city look like something the pony in the cardboard box made. :derpytongue2:

532359 I shall have to get it once I get my old Acclaim (what I'm typing this on) replaced by this sweet 4G Galaxy I was looking at the other day. That will probably be the beginning of the new year when that happens.


Wish they made a good MLP game for the PS2.

532356

I just noticed that. :rainbowlaugh:

What's that saying. "Hate to see you go, love to watch you leave."

532385
I'll have to remember that, just in case :moustache:

Love your Ponyville, too bad my phone can't handle the game :pinkiesad2:

Well, I'm accessing this notification with a computer that has more censoring than China so all I see is a white square with a red 'x'... :twilightangry2:

*sigh* I hate Nvidia, it's been 2 dam weeks since I've used my good computer. I'll have to look at the picture later I guess. :fluttershysad:

Where did you get the gems to get everypony and how do you unlock time turner and such? :derpyderp1::derpyderp2:

532380
Keep in mind that the galaxy tab ( 10.1 in my case) does NOT support this game! Strangely enough, my stratosphere does.:facehoof:

532412
I don't want to give out specific instructions on how I beat the system (aka hack).

But I can tell you this. Ponies that you supposidly have to win (Like Time Turner and Trixie) can be bought for coin values if you put your device into Airplane mode. This makes it so the game can't access the internet and thus it defaults to its internal price list. The internal price list allows you to buy Time Turner and Trixie instead of having to win them at the balloon pop.

532425 I don't want the tablet, I want the slider phone. (Kinda like having that real keyboard, and not that virtual one that takes up the biggest part of the screen)

That sounds like far too much effort. Blargh.

I would try for something like this too but playing this game is pretty much impossible without the hack, I'm sorry to say. :fluttershysad:

532524

Don't be sorry, blame Gameloft. This is a money grab. When it could take you decades, yes decades, to finish the game without spending a dime, something is wrong. And I gave them some money before finding out about some of the more outrageous gem prices. So I've paid the piper and now I use the hack to get my ponies.

My Ponyville looks more like Pinkie's childhood rock farm than Ponyville... What with all the huge boulders requiring 16k bits to clear lying everywhere. =/

Thank Celestia for FREEPONE

And then Omnath.
And then swing for lethal.
Because Omnath.
And MTG.

I call Hax! :derpyderp1:
While it is obvious... I didn't knew it would take decades to win game for free.
Maybe it is just me, but 50 bits per min + 100 bits per 2 min + 150 bits per 3 min equals nice income. Most of the stuff can be bought with coins (except few chars) and maybe I am just lucky because I had good drop of elements.
By playing 30 min (max) a day I got 10 Generosity elements within two days. Odd.

Anyway, great city. ^_^
Considering the size, I think it is possible to make mostly show-like Ponyville with time and hax. :pinkiecrazy:

Also. How did you get your ponies to move? :pinkiegasp:
Mine only stand and (if live in same house) talk to each other.
Well, occasionally Pinkie Pie looks at screen and points at it to Mrs Cake. Mr Cake also sometimes notices it and looks, but looks away fast. Was that intentional from devs? :derpyderp1:

You have all of my envy right now.
I can't even download the game because my iPod's a piece of crap and outdated :twilightangry2:

532687

I have no clue why you're ponies wouldn't be waling around. I'd search forums.

532728
Found:

Android version is pretty buggy.

:rainbowlaugh:
Well, I guess that is to be expected. More attention to those who has higher chance to pay. :twilightsmile:
Oh and buildings that have no pony working in them also gave money after some period of time without logging into game. :scootangel:

Found Rarity's dad talking to Blueblood (by the blue jester hat building), should be an interesting conversation. :raritywink:

Oh, and Blueblood's walking away from Fancypants for some reason (between Carousel Boutique and Quills and Sofas). I wonder why he can't get a break here. :duck:

532654
I regret to inform you that I don't get it.

532312 PenStrokePony. He already has hundreds of friends though, he might not notice another

Looks really cool. It's kinda funny that even in the computer image there are still ponies appearing twice. Changelings in the pc man!

532796
Wasn't that a Magic the Gathering joke, tapping the trees?

532875
No. You can tap on the trees/other objects and get coins out of them every now and then. He happens to have quite the overabundance of trees.

532883
Ah. I was unaware of that particular gameplay mechanic.

532929
Me too, until my friend kept bragging to me about having it on his android.

...maybe I should get that iPhone for christmas...

I've said it before and I'll say it again, your artistry in creating Ponyville puts my own game to shame. :applecry:

I really hope to one day put together something even half as impressive, but not sure my interest in the game will hold out long enough to acquire everything legitimately, and short of the airplane glitch, I'm hesitant to exploit this game. I might not even be able to finish this game anyway, as a glitch deleted Fluttershy from the shop. :fluttercry:

...My Ponyville is laggy, dirt broke, and nowhere NEAR as nice as yours. :twilightangry2:
...But it's mine, and the game works, even of I don't play it very well. :rainbowwild:
I prefer mine. :ajsmug: No offense. :applejackunsure:

This has all the shops and all the ponies, including Luna.

including Luna.

Luna

I need to buy an iPad.

532290 My reaction as well....

Now we just need to find a way to add OCs to this thing..

Impressive.
My Ponyville was deleted off my phone a while ago, after I realized that my time and money were better spent on practically anything else.
(Though of course that's subjective.)
