A bunch of indie devs creating a Street Fighter-style fighting game based on something officially aimed at little girls should have been no real surprise.Īt time of writing, Them's Fightin' Herds Indiegogo campaign has raised $103,778 of its $436,000 (£282.5k) target in just 24 hours. That unexpected subset of devotees (themselves subject to a feature length documentary) often had more typically geeky interests. But thanks to impressive animation, strong writing, and an ability to remain upbeat without being cloying, the series became a breakthrough success, attracting older viewers and, most notoriously, "Bronies" - adult male fans. The genesis of the game is as interesting as its inspiration My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has always been a curious show, debuting in 2010 as ostensibly just the latest in a long line of reboots for the toyline. Mane 6 - a nod to the "main six" characters from Friendship is Magic - have also implemented a visual lobby between rounds, where players can explore an 8-bit style town and interact with each other before starting a match.
