Fighting is Magic - Faustality!
Hello, everyone.
We have what for most will be bad news, for us are terrible news, and for a selected few might actually be good news.
We have received a C&D letter from Hasbro's Legal representatives, asking us to cease game development, remove any materials that might contain My Little Pony characters, names, locations or related elements from the sites we control (Our site, our youtube, our twitch), and "cease any further use of [their] MY LITTLE PONY property".
Options have been considered, lawyers have been contacted, and resources have been (mostly) exhausted.
We have attempted negotiating with Hasbro for the continued use of the property in our non-profit, voluntary project, but so far we haven't received an answer. As such, we're complying with the contents of the C&D letter until we receive answer from their PR and/or Legal departments.
We also want to inform the general public of the final and irrevocable resignation of James Workman (Elosande) from the Mane6 DevTeam, effective February 6, 2013, as well as reminding of the final and irrevocable resignation of Prominence, effective January 30, 2012. The Mane6 DevTeam no longer represents their interest, nor do they represent ours.
We'll keep everyone posted as the situation evolves, but be aware we might not be able to respond to comments and questions due to the delicate nature of the situation.
Thanks for following our project so far.

Ah yes, welcome to Fighting is Magic, a 2D fighter that a group of guys named Mane6 are developing for computer and online play. I won't make a wall of text of stuff that can be easily answered by THEIR FAQ, so please click yourself over there to read up on it. That said, I'll keep this OP updated for facts we can glean from Livestreams and YouTubes that they've revealed but don't bother compiling.
This thread for the moment is a general-purpose thread. Feel free to wildly speculate and drool over all preview materials Mane6 has released to the public. Newbies to fighting games can feel free to ask questions about terms used in fighting games and anything they may not understand. Once the game is released, I'll be sure to add a roster list of folks who are willing to play and their availability so as to help set up matches between us forum members. We might even have tournaments in here!

Fluttershy:
- Mainly fights with animal friend summons, but you already knew that.
- Porcupine summon comes from the ground and may raise its quills. (Not sure if it's projectile quills or not.)
- Ferret summon leaps forward to attack.
- Falcon summon may dash forward or dive-bomb diagonally to attack.
- Bear summon does a delayed, but very long-reaching punch.
- Level 1 super is a stampede of many of her animal summons.
