I was in that Livestream when it happened.
I've been looking forward to Fighting is Magic ever since they uploaded their first PreAlpha video.

I love Fighting Games with High Quality sprites and I love ponies
so I've been eagerly waiting for this game.

There are also a lot of fanmade MLP games
Most can be found here: http://www.equestriagaming.com/
But most of them are really mediocre and were just made for the kicks.

I'll check out the fighter one because it actually looks decent, especially for an amateur game.

This looks impressive.

I'm not big on MLP, but this might sway me to your cause.

Launchers, OtGs, relaunching, hit stun deterioration, level 3 HCs...

...I think I'm going to like this.

This fandom is just a bit too ridiculous for me.

They have more sprites than lots of old professional games.

It ends.

I really don't get why the MLP fanbase is so huge. I guess maybe I should watch it to understand, but as much as I want to watch it, I can't bring myself to watch ponies saying stuff about how friendship is magic.

I'm guessing these work like summons, or in fighting game vernacular, stances? Not very familiar with fighting games but that was the logical conclusion I came to back in July

Your terminology has nearly zero presence here.
"Pet character" would actually be a fitting term here.
Fluttershy will probably rely on projectiles and such. There are lots of fightan' characters that use animals in battle. I really hope that animation is her ducking stance, though. It looks kinda awkward.

It ends.

Pets have a consistent presence, right? Which would serve to differentiate them from summons. I don't see how it would differ from a stance though, if a different pet equates to a different moveset which is interchangeable through some method.

I'm pretty sure that's the crouching animation; the RD crouch animation had a very similar skeletal structure (and Angel normally stands on just his hind quarters)

These are called "Crouch Idle" or "Duck Idle"
pretty much the crouch animation.

For your convenience, here are the other animations the site posted (most of which are still WIP):

Normal Attacks:

Launchers:

Also, what if the game made it to the Arcades?

Copyright says no.
And awp is right about stances, but summoning is still a term that isn't used very often. I was thinking more in terms that pets are versatile projectiles, but they vary in use in games.

It ends.

Man, I've gotten hooked on the theme for Sweet Apple Acres/Applejack that is floating around for this game. It wont leave my heeeeead.

This just reassures me that Applejack is the best thing ever.
