Pony Island is a suspense puzzle game in disguise. You are in limbo, trapped in a malevolent and malfunctioning arcade machine devised by the devil himself. It is not a game about ponies.
Each input wears a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The color is the direction: green raises the score, red lowers it, grey sits neutral. ▼ marks a dock, ? a missing input, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret. These are the inputs and the direction each pushes.
Most players never reach the end. On a 2.4-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements
Just a fun game with ponies! There is definitely nothing more to this game, just fun jumping ponies!
A funny and thought provoking short game. I especially liked the secret ending. Fighting against hopelessoul was a unexpected plottwist and phase 3 of the bossfight got all my focus and the unusual perspective made really fun! Ohhhh and the level with jesus (without shooting him ofc) got me bad -___- go in blind! ^-^
I was genuinely surprised by how good and refreshingly different this game was. It introduced so many unique and creative ideas that it felt like a truly original experience.
