It's such a smooth transition! There is not a single bit where it felt like this wasn't just one single song. I hope other games look to yours as inspiration for their own music.
+Dennis Fluttershy It's also the case with crash tag team racing. There 4 DIFFERENT version of the songs! When you're at your first and second lap - when you're 1-3 place - in the middle - in the last place.
In the most recent demo they've expanded this mechanic even further. Now if you pull off a crazy fucking combo the longer it goes the music begins to distort go quiet and you start to hear a heartbeat. *Its like the game itself turns its attention to the fight letting you know you're doing something epic.* This project has just been going from strength to strength for me. I literally cannot wait to see this thing funded.
+Makkon head over to their website then, cause they did an in-depth post about the dynamic music in their game and some of the challenges in realizing it.
+Goodbye18000 Based on the character concepts they've shown, I doubt that would fit with any of them. That being said, it's entirely possible that the current ones we know of aren't going to be the only ones in the game, so you might get your wish, at the very least as a dlc char.
2 years later (according to YT at least), I'm happy to point you to Paprika (and maybe Velvet). : ) You basically just exchange neon for yarn and you're set.
+FourthDerivative As long as it's a four-legged creature, it could possibly be in the game so you don't have to be a brony. (Fingers crossed for lizard character)
+SSGuy They really have. One of my friends (who is a brony) told me about fighting is magic and the stuff they had to go through. To be honest, I'm glad that it's its own thing now. This way it has a better chance to reach more people than if it was an mlp fangame. Looks like it's going to have a pretty diverse community, which is one of the things that really makes a game last imo.
This is the only place where we can hear these early versions of the themes. Obviously, they were changed for the final game. Also, the background is an early version of Velvet's stage, but the music is for Paprika's stage.
Every time I return to this video to reminisce over the 10 seconds where Arizona's music sounded more like a spaghetti western. Kinda makes me hope we get another cowboy character that brings it back. :v
not only Dynamuc music is an awesome concept for a vs game as a way to hype the players, but also shows the huge amount of dedication you have for the proyect to go the extra-mile and do something subtle like this, mayor props guys!
Why do you say that? I'm not saying she should be all "MOTHER RUSSIA! I DRINK VOKDA" but a Russian/Ukrainian accent would really suit the whole 'reindeer living in a cold place with command over ice' thing imo.
Htamret VG True true, I was not referring to that, but I guess you're right in that I've heard some pretty bad stereotypical accents over the years xD. I live in Finland though, and we sure like our reindeer, but our characteristic accent with English is quite hideous and wouldn't fit at all. Really like your idea!
This is SO freaking COOL!!! Do another video like this with Arizona winning please. We barely got to hear any of her unique music, nor her outro. I love this system SO much and I'm not even a huge music fanatic; I can't believe that I haven't seen more fighters do this before.
Huh. Transitioning the music like that is such a simple idea, but it's actually pretty brilliant. I look forward to seeing what else comes of this project.
I just watched back at the videos where the dynamic music system was first announced and I am so glad it's gone this way. The new soundtrack sounds excellent. More please!
+catherine-is-a-lemon I guess as soon as it hits the market and steam, we can get it as a DLC, MANY games did that and I would definetly get the soundtrack myself that way ^^
Loving the music! Very upbeat and those bells all around the 0:55 mark makes me wish this was on its way this holiday lol Its going to be a about 2 weeks, but I cant wait to support this! xD The 1k tier is already sold out!
Heck. Yes. As someone who tends to be very invested in the focus of the soundtracks in both games and shows alike, this is a feature that has got me V E R Y excited, and I wish more fighting games used this, because it’s a clever, audio way go tell who’s winning without having to look at the top of the screen.
Nice. I kinda wish the transition would happen faster/ more often but I suppose it'd end up sounding like a mess if it changed every time someone got a combo in.
I can see it now a picture, a mariachi band vs Christmas orchestral both bands are on each side looking at the life bar while in the middle the musicians play the original theme of the level
So, now that the game is funded and we reached the Goat stretch goal, there's going to be 7 characters, each with their own stage and music variations. So that's 7 * 7 = 49 different tunes, plus the intro and outro variations, and who knows what else! This is one game I would be glad to buy just for the soundtrack.
Looking really fancy! Velvet is best qt deer and the music is totally beaut. Arizona's segment feels like it is less... loud and grand as Velvet's later on, so is it safe to assume that music is different depending on how long the match is? Like a comeback song which is louder and more fabulous? I really like the idea.
+Kaiden Krueger Because of EVO's interested in it. Hasbro for legal reason had to give them a cease and desist order. But because of this we are going to get an even better game out of it. On a good note, they were allow to keep the MLP style of drawing, just not characters and other stuff.
It's funny, the more I think about it, the less I can think of games that have actually done such a Dynamic Music system as this. I mean, yeah Street Fighter has it, but not in the same sense as this where not only each character has a theme that plays but depending on who is dominating the fight, the music actually reflect who has the upper hand. Kudos to you guys on turning a F2P MLP fighting game into your own full fledged fighting game (and getting the help from the creator as well) and hope to you guys that you are able to get funded.
I cant believe they actually pulled this off. That's amazing Tbh. to have that kind of passion. I'm impress and if they do anymore fighting herds I believe they should continue to take this dynamic music to the next level. I feel that's what keeps them apart from other fighting games.
It's such a smooth transition! There is not a single bit where it felt like this wasn't just one single song. I hope other games look to yours as inspiration for their own music.
+Dennis Fluttershy It's also the case with crash tag team racing. There 4 DIFFERENT version of the songs! When you're at your first and second lap - when you're 1-3 place - in the middle - in the last place.
You don't say...
You gotta admire the work that's been put into the game, especially the music system.
In the most recent demo they've expanded this mechanic even further. Now if you pull off a crazy fucking combo the longer it goes the music begins to distort go quiet and you start to hear a heartbeat.
*Its like the game itself turns its attention to the fight letting you know you're doing something epic.*
This project has just been going from strength to strength for me. I literally cannot wait to see this thing funded.
As silly as it may sound, this is the feature I'm most excited for! ^^
+TolianTiger same my friend, same.
I'd love to know more about how this works.
+Makkon head over to their website then, cause they did an in-depth post about the dynamic music in their game and some of the challenges in realizing it.
@llifetodeathmatter could you please tell me where to find that post? I looked everywhere and could find it 😕
I hope one character has brutal 80's synth keyboard as an instrument so I can destroy them and ride away on a keyboard in neon pants and sunglasses
how about Eurobeat?
+Goodbye18000 Based on the character concepts they've shown, I doubt that would fit with any of them. That being said, it's entirely possible that the current ones we know of aren't going to be the only ones in the game, so you might get your wish, at the very least as a dlc char.
+Htamret VG I feel like a really goofy variation of Eurobeat (maybe Ponybeat) would fit Paprika
+edcellwarrior ye
2 years later (according to YT at least), I'm happy to point you to Paprika (and maybe Velvet). : )
You basically just exchange neon for yarn and you're set.
I hope this version of Arizona's variation returns because this sounds amazing
I'm not even a brony and this looks/sounds amazing.
+frank medina you dont need to be a furry to play a game just because animals are in it. but im guessing you were joking
+FourthDerivative As long as it's a four-legged creature, it could possibly be in the game so you don't have to be a brony. (Fingers crossed for lizard character)
+frank medina I hate furries but for sure supporting this. This team has legit went through hell and back trying to get this finished.
+SSGuy They really have. One of my friends (who is a brony) told me about fighting is magic and the stuff they had to go through. To be honest, I'm glad that it's its own thing now. This way it has a better chance to reach more people than if it was an mlp fangame. Looks like it's going to have a pretty diverse community, which is one of the things that really makes a game last imo.
+FourthDerivative Same
This is the only place where we can hear these early versions of the themes. Obviously, they were changed for the final game. Also, the background is an early version of Velvet's stage, but the music is for Paprika's stage.
Every time I return to this video to reminisce over the 10 seconds where Arizona's music sounded more like a spaghetti western.
Kinda makes me hope we get another cowboy character that brings it back. :v
There's going to be so much salt at the sound of sleigh bells after this game comes out.
Tainted Myth0s now that the game has released, I can confirm that this is definitely the case.
>t. Tianhou main
Why?
The zoning...
This is so fucking gorgeous omfg
I just love this
every time
every time
why has this not been done. No wait, I know.
Because Mane6 is revolutionary
Awesomenauts has a similar system too! Its really nice :)
9 years... Times fly! 😢
Totally love this idea! I can imagine it'll stroke egos! XD
Are you guys wizards?
+So Zetta Slow
+So Zetta Slow Well, they _are_ programmers, so basically...
Yes.
yes
Yep
not only Dynamuc music is an awesome concept for a vs game as a way to hype the players, but also shows the huge amount of dedication you have for the proyect to go the extra-mile and do something subtle like this, mayor props guys!
This is almost like what Killer Instinct did but a LOT better, this reallly adds the hype to the battle!
Please bring back the heroic kick ass Arizona music
wow, a music system!? That's actually a really good idea i haven't seen before in a fighting game
I miss this Arizona version it’s so Mirachi. Maybe it will come back some day
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Can't wait to hear the voices of these characters. Velvet's character would sound great with a posh British accent.
+Raven Star I personally think that a Russian accent would suit her waaaay more, but that's just me.
+Htamret VG It'd have to be light, though.
Why do you say that? I'm not saying she should be all "MOTHER RUSSIA! I DRINK VOKDA" but a Russian/Ukrainian accent would really suit the whole 'reindeer living in a cold place with command over ice' thing imo.
Htamret VG True true, I was not referring to that, but I guess you're right in that I've heard some pretty bad stereotypical accents over the years xD. I live in Finland though, and we sure like our reindeer, but our characteristic accent with English is quite hideous and wouldn't fit at all. Really like your idea!
Yeah, Russian is an accent that works pretty well with English, and it would be a pretty big contrast with Arizona's (presumably) Southern accent.
I am LOVING this dynamic music idea where each character has their own version!
I am honestly loving this music system you've crafted.
Bravo!!
Velvet seems like the perfect character for me. So graceful and elegant. Not to mention her ice powers and fluff. I shall support this game.
This is SO freaking COOL!!! Do another video like this with Arizona winning please. We barely got to hear any of her unique music, nor her outro.
I love this system SO much and I'm not even a huge music fanatic; I can't believe that I haven't seen more fighters do this before.
Hmm...Improvement? Or devolution?
Improvement?
Or devolution?
Well, quite honestly...
*YES.*
*MOTHER OF GOD, YES THIS IS AN AMAZING IMPROVEMENT.*
Arizona's theme sounds rad
Huh. Transitioning the music like that is such a simple idea, but it's actually pretty brilliant. I look forward to seeing what else comes of this project.
Arizona is so adorable, and Velvet looks so pretty ❤
I can hardly wait for the ost of this game.
This is outstanding. It's so good.
So the music changes based on which character is dominating during the match? That's innovative! Good job guys!
I just watched back at the videos where the dynamic music system was first announced and I am so glad it's gone this way. The new soundtrack sounds excellent. More please!
That's an awesome feature and really well done, the transition between each variation is so smooth
This is the best game design idea I have ever seen. GG. You win forever.
that music flows so well, very nicely done.
I remember being crazy for the soundtrack already but this is something special. I haven't seen such cleanly used dynamic music since Journey.
Damn... you guys are amazing!
Oh my lord this music is so so good...
God I could listen to this for hours. This is way better than the first videos.
This video made me upgrade my pledge from 15 bucks to 90 yesterday. Looking forward to more music!
im so bad at these games, ill never hear my actual characters battle theme XD
I want the music.
Velvet is amazing. She's probably my favorite.
Amazing.
Music made me get emotional, and I cried for the first time in a long while.
Gonna back you up guys!
Very cool! That's a pretty fresh concept. I also imagine that means alot of work for the composer...
Maybe this will become its own tv show!!! Lauren's work is always epic!
I will show this to my class mates at college. This is perfect because we just did a study on music last week!
I can see Velvet reindeer's music is composed of SLAY bells. :P
Actually I think you guys did a better job than Killer Instinct in the music department and the variation.
Wow, it sounds fantastic! And kudos to the composer, looks like he/she has done tons of work
Man, i so wanna make a fighting game with dynamics like that... Lucky...
Damn I love how this soundtrack is sounding....please release all the songs
neat, but will there be a duel character mix version for when both people are down to a quarter bar in crunch time?
+masterredwood at about 0:32 it starts to get more neutral.
It seems to be based of who is doing damage at the present time.
Oy! Apparently, there's even going to be a music variation when the fighters are afk. So I guess they'll add a lot of stuff when it comes to music.
Will the soundtrack be included with the game? It's so well done!
+catherine-is-a-lemon I guess as soon as it hits the market and steam, we can get it as a DLC, MANY games did that and I would definetly get the soundtrack myself that way ^^
Loving the music! Very upbeat and those bells all around the 0:55 mark makes me wish this was on its way this holiday lol
Its going to be a about 2 weeks, but I cant wait to support this! xD The 1k tier is already sold out!
The Music sounds wonderful. I only wonder what they make next.
So the music changes variation to who's dominating the fight? That's pretty neat.
Omg the music transition is wonderful!
i hope this gets big enough to have its own tv show!
I has so much potential!
"It has"
a wonderful development. im glad your team's talents have not gone to waste.
Pure nostalgia
Heck. Yes.
As someone who tends to be very invested in the focus of the soundtracks in both games and shows alike, this is a feature that has got me V E R Y excited, and I wish more fighting games used this, because it’s a clever, audio way go tell who’s winning without having to look at the top of the screen.
I must know if this is an original, first time ever used concept, because be it true or false, THIS IS SO AWESOME!!! AND EVEN LEGENDARY IF IT IS!!!!!!
***** Well, that means that TFH will have really good character themes, with the crowdfunding and mane6's future team!
Dynamic Music is the future for music in Video Games!!!
i wish the more hispanic themed music for arizona stayed, wouldve been real cool!
I could listen to this for hours.
And by "could" I mean "do".
Great idea! Hope there's a version for every stage instead of just one song.
god, so much quality in just one game... and indie too!
I love the music
Nice. I kinda wish the transition would happen faster/ more often but I suppose it'd end up sounding like a mess if it changed every time someone got a combo in.
I can see it now a picture, a mariachi band vs Christmas orchestral
both bands are on each side looking at the life bar while in the middle the musicians play the original theme of the level
I love the music!!!! And the gaame too
Ah, so it's this song that's been sitting in my head for the last day or so.
Holy fuck this is amazing. It'll make the battles more immersive.
I'm hyped! 2017 come out already
That is the single most spectacular thing I've even heard of a fighting game doing...
This game looks amazing so far i cant wait for the final version of it :D
This game is pulling a killer instinct with the music
I like it even more now
I sold my soul to discord for this...
If it dosen't come out, then my soul shall be gone forever...
That's amazing!!!
So, now that the game is funded and we reached the Goat stretch goal, there's going to be 7 characters, each with their own stage and music variations.
So that's 7 * 7 = 49 different tunes, plus the intro and outro variations, and who knows what else!
This is one game I would be glad to buy just for the soundtrack.

Stunning

Arizona's segment feels like it is less... loud and grand as Velvet's later on, so is it safe to assume that music is different depending on how long the match is? Like a comeback song which is louder and more fabulous? I really like the idea.
Oh man, I would even buy this game just for the music alone!
You're telling me Arizona was going to have *HORNS* in her song?
That's crazy thinking about it lol
I LOVE IT
To let you guys know,these guys COULD have given us Fighting is Magic,but Hasbro was like NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
+Kaiden Krueger Because of EVO's interested in it. Hasbro for legal reason had to give them a cease and desist order. But because of this we are going to get an even better game out of it. On a good note, they were allow to keep the MLP style of drawing, just not characters and other stuff.
Big Clementine Cherry yeah but....I wanted to do sick Fluttershy Combo's :(
Kaiden Krueger Modding will help you there
Atomic Robo Tesla hell yeah XD
Them's Fightin' Herds looks better in every way.
This looks amazing, i want it naaaaao!
ohmy
the music is amazing, specifically when velvet's part is on
is there a genre for this?? omg PLEASE let there be more music like that somewhere..!
It's funny, the more I think about it, the less I can think of games that have actually done such a Dynamic Music system as this. I mean, yeah Street Fighter has it, but not in the same sense as this where not only each character has a theme that plays but depending on who is dominating the fight, the music actually reflect who has the upper hand.

Oh, and new palette for Velvet I think.
I'd honestly like to see how well they could do a fighting game based on the SCP Foundation.
Where to from here?
it's come a long way. very fun fighter.
@@thenewfireguy5658 What
Alpake highlands
Velvet's outro is very smooth
This game is so flawless
I cant believe they actually pulled this off. That's amazing Tbh. to have that kind of passion. I'm impress and if they do anymore fighting herds I believe they should continue to take this dynamic music to the next level. I feel that's what keeps them apart from other fighting games.
I'm more hyped about this game than I am hyped for Fallout 4, this is saying something
