Talking about my plans.

[Videogamejunkie443]

Okay, so I'm going to talk about my project. Tell me how you feel. First off, I want to create My Little Pony crossover fanfictions, which I'm going to try to make as non-cringe as possible.

They will be Seasons 7-9, but the episodes will happen once or twice a month. What will happen in-between the episodes? Exploration of other dimensions. I plan to represent multiple video game universes and fan-created My Little Pony universes in my story. Oh, and It's going to be a self-insert story too. I know these kinds of stories have a bad reputation, but I'm going to try to break the mold.

I also want to create fan-games. These games will be part of the story and will be similar to Mushroom Kingdom Fusion, but on a much smaller scale. I don't want my project to die in the same way that MKF did. By the way, I now know how to design levels in Hello's Engine. I've also made copies of enemies and edited them. Most of the new enemies are from or based on enemies from ROM hacks. I even put the giant enemies in (I got help, though. Thanks Gatete!) But… I don't know if what I've done with the engine is enough to get people on my side. I can make new enemy types, but I can't make new enemies. But I CAN do levels. What should I do?

As a certified MLP fan who has done the same, you have me interested.

Surprisingly I've worked on that exact topic in role-playing communities with my friends. Inserting My Little Pony into the mix of action-packed and story-based "arcs" puts an interesting spin on everything. You've got a show of pastel-colored animals, specifically horses, with the powers of magic, flight, and much more. It looks weird at first, but digging into it, MLP is quite amusing. I've stuck to Generation 4, which would be what everyone's most familiar with: the "Friendship is Magic" timeline. The characters are the most memorable, in my opinion, and the story of it all has caught so many users' attention.

For making the stories themselves, you need to keep in mind the characters' personalities and how they'd act towards non-pony scenarios. Take the (main) movie they got, for example; the main group of ponies (+ their small dragon companion) went outside of their homeland in search of the-story-knows-what. We got to see characters that looked apart from what was common in MLP Gen. 4, not being ponies, dragons, or any other sort of mystical-type creature (correct me if I'm wrong). As for reactions, again, it boils down to character personality. I'd say do some research on each character you're looking for and go from there.

Moving on to self-inserts, hoo boy, where do I begin. Back when I first mentioned it in the childhood crushes thread, I had a knack for liking one of the characters. I soon ported this into story form by giving myself a self-insert character named Necro Zera, which, soon, I built a story world for. His background was meant to be "a better version of mine", where he was more successful than I. Necro had his own technology / engineering company, and after heavy experimentation, used the power of machinery to break reality and bring a seemingly-fictional character into his world. Yes, it was a character from My Little Pony, and yes, it sounds somewhat-to-very cringe-worthy, but I believe that, as long as you can make it sound good / interesting, do what your heart desires for a fan-fiction.

Point is, don't be afraid to put in a character or more who is / who are self-inserts. It helped me bring forth what is probably the greatest role-playing character I've ever used, and made me build a bigger connection to MLP than ever. Again, if you can make it sound appealing to other people, you're most likely going to be fine.

...what? you want me to talk about the fan-game section next? nah, i only play fan-games, not make them.

Thanks for the advice. Now I need to know if what I've done with Hello's engine is enough to net me some help or not.
