Lab Zero Games launched its crowdfunding campaign in late February to fund new characters for Skullgirls with an initial $150,000 goal that it reached in just 24 hours.

As for Mane6, its ambitions to create a fighting game based on the My Little Pony property were halted by Hasbro in early February due to Mane6 not having the rights to develop the game. Mane6 has since noted its desire to continue development on its game, now using new characters in a new setting. Lab Zero Games' Indiegogo campaign is currently at just over $427,000 with 11 days left before it closes.

Brony up, boys and girls -- Twilight Sparkle has been studying some sick moves for Fighting is Magic, the fanmade My Little Pony fighter. Developer Mane6 has released a character video showing off Twilight Sparkle's pre-alpha move set, which includes book-reading, energy blasts from her horn and an impressive special that releases a blinding explosion of what we assume are sparkles. Deadly sparkles.

The first release of Fighting is Magic will feature Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie Pie, so rest assured there are plenty more guilty-pleasure ponies coming our way. We know Our Little Bronies were worried.

[Thanks, Darkdrium!]

Indie developer 'Mane6' is fulfilling brony dreams with an unofficial My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fighting game, made in 2D Fighter Maker. MLP: Fighting is Magic is simultaneously one of the cutest and most uncomfortable things we've seen, with six adorable cartoon horses kicking the adorable cartoon hell out of each other.

The first version will have playable versions of Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie Pie, with 11 more to follow in DLC. There's currently no release date on this project, but if you want to help the team finish, it's looking for voice talent now.

[Thanks, Zac]
