[GelberPullover]

My Little Pony justice for love^^

[EnablerStudios]

Where do I buy this? Tell me! Please!

[PAL434pilot]

They must use the LA noire soundtrack but only ponier.

[ableisabel]

my little phoenix write

[Omatecay]

You coud say it is just like Phoenix Wright. Done :D

[b0w5er]

A tip for new videos... Don't skip the dialogue

[needthistool]

Twilight used Force convince.

[Princessskatingluna]

Is This gunna be a real game and if So When is it out?

[projackX]

Engine Demo... It seems like riding a bike to anyone who has played Phoenix Wright.

[QuadSuit]

Looks like Pheonix Wright XD

[Itachi17509]

mistery mitery mistery????? i need it!!! someone tellme when i can play it!!!

[moRULEZ18981]

Applejack:"Sometimes, you just have to shake the tree to see what falls out"

[tmas5656]

So its like a Phoenix Wright mlp? My first impression at least. Sounds cool.

[Digiscat]

C++ is best++....(Yay Jokes that even a few programmers won't understand?)

[TheRealBlackPuma]

The dialog is very well done. Definitely something to look forward to.

[Tyrannigon64]

There was a grammatical mistake in 7:17; it should be Sweetie Belle and I, not Sweetie Belle and me. Is this you making a grammatical mistake or Apple Bloom making a grammatical mistake? You should probably run the script for the actual game by multiple people (perhaps those on the current team) to check for spelling and grammar mistakes. I know it's not that big a deal, but the more you make, the more people might be unwilling to play (sort of like Twilight's "health" in a confrontation).

[GabuEx]

@Tyrannigon64 That was a conscious and purposeful grammatical mistake, but thanks for checking all the same.

[Rbombsaway2]

@GabuEx

7:17 I know the correct grammar is supposed to be "Sweetie Belle and I," but should it be "me and Sweetie Belle" and not "Sweetie Bell and me"?

[letsmudkip]

This is going to be so awesome, guys.

[Alewolf01]

Reminds me of Phoenix Wright from the sounds and the way the game is. Awesome XD

[Jraiser786]

Could you please let the text play out a little in demos like this? I know that isn't the focus of the video, but still.

[Alphahumphrey2011]

I hope there will be an Applejack center game.

[raisen90timpa]

This looks so awesome, can I ask where's the BG music from?

[GabuEx]

@raisen90timpa The initial music is "Cutie Mark Crusaders Go Crusading", which is background music from The Show Stoppers; the interrogation music and ending music are "Confrontation ~ Moderato 2009" and "Logic ~ The Way to the Truth", both from Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth.

[raisen90timpa]

@GabuEx Thanks!

[211nate]

when will it be done

[MrMariomario17]

All you did is ylpa (Unmix it)

[RaveTuba]

Awesome game like Phoenix Wright.

Amazing cartoon as Mlp: fim..

Mash them up, what u get?

Best Freekin' game freekin' EVER!

[mielster12]

Where did you get the faces/facial expressions from?

[Shinru61]

Is it me or does this remind me of Phoenix Wright?

[GabuEx]

@Shinru61 That could be because the gameplay is based off of Ace Attorney. :P

[songoten91]

You're great! Just a question: don't you undergo any copyright infringement issue with this?

[GabuEx]

@songoten91 The same is true of any MLP fan creation, really. Hasbro doesn't care.

[Keyinei]

gahhh this is brilliant detective MLP games omg @_@

[iamLI3]

6:42

DERP

lol....

i think i can say im in favor of this hybrid game mechanic since yeah talking to ppl wasn't very engaging but i just didn't like the whole idea of the phyclocks at all.....

and yes nobody likes anything yt's done since forever....

l

[rummy9000]

Not to get off topic but WTF!? NEW LOOK TO YOUTUBE!? FUUUUUUCK!

[wunderofwaffles]

*Gets money, puts on keyboard, waits.*

"Wait...It's...FREE!"

*Puts money back, goes to sleep*

[ElderUribe]

when is it coming out?

[DistortionEGF]

i bet about 90% got here from either dreamy rainbow or luna game

[TheLonePyro]

@DistortionEGF I got here from Story of the Blanks. I am the 10%

[SpicyDinger]

@TheLonePyro occupy equestria gg jared

[THFOBMCRlover]

@DistortionEGF I didn't.

[Nightmaremoon115]

IT'S SO SHOCKYING!!!

[MyLittlePegasus32980]

when will this be out? (your estimate)

[MyLittleOC]

What are you using to make this epic game?

[GabuEx]

@MyLittleOC It's coded in C# using XNA.

[segonyosoftendo]

will this cost money?

[GabuEx]

@segonyosoftendo Nope!

[peepeevagi]

@GabuEx SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! *throws money at monitor*

[Thardoc]

hope you change the sound of text appearing :P

[rraazze]

The more I see of this, the more excited I'm getting.

I can't wait to play it :D

[keagangatton]

sooooo pretty much LA Noire and phoenix wright without the court room

[Goldva]

Shut up and take my money! All of it!

[ThePonygirl14]

If it is no bother to you, i'd like to join your team as the idea sorter and giver. I would think up ideas for the game, and I would allow others to post their ideas as comments on my videos. I would then sort those ideas, and pass the good ones to you.

[GabuEx]

@ThePonygirl14 Well, thanks for the offer, but at this point we aren't really in any need of ideas... if we do happen to need ideas though, we'll see.

[gipsyg27]

@GabuEx sorry to bother but quick question, will you actualy move in the game like edgeworth?

or just move from area to area like phoenix's game's?

[GabuEx]

@gipsyg27 You move in the game like Edgeworth.

[ThePonygirl14]

@GabuEx I do have some ideas for case #3, which involve other hub shows, and a new feature: tools, which can be found like evidence, but are in a different tab altogether.

[Legit101bro]

Looks good.

[InvaderNebu]

I am so excited for this!!! :DD

[Kyleology]

This guy loves to say 'thus'.

[riden1234567]

will this game cost any money? the most I can pay it a total of $0.00

[GabuEx]

@riden1234567 Nope!

[riden1234567]

@GabuEx :D

[aleks99800]

@GabuEx and where can i get this? or this isnt out yet

[GabuEx]

@aleks99800 It's not out yet.

[MegaNuva]

Where i can found it. or if it is not released yet. say when it is ready

[UsernameMadeNChina]

Now I feel like playing some goold ol' Phoenix Wright! ;D I'm totally gonna get his game once you finish it. :D GL and KIU!

[nepomusik]

Well well well. It looks like we have 52 NEEEEEEEEEEIGHsayers in the audience.

[Trin2Rex]

OBJECTION!

[Poppy6644]

.......L.A. NEIGHoire

[XTGNecro]

@Poppy6644 New Character:

Detective Colgate Fhelps

[MegamanNG]

MLP + Ace Attorney Investigations... nice. Makes me wonder if you would include music from AAI2 aka Gyakuten Kenji 2.

[ShelbytehRaccoon]

Okay, quick question: Would you have to download the game to play it, or is it going to be playable on a website?

[GabuEx]

@ShelbytehRaccoon It will be a downloadable game.

[ShelbytehRaccoon]

@GabuEx alright. thank you for telling me!

[ODSTD56]

Is this game gonna be free?

On a side note, this game reminds me of how LA Noire played. You had to really pay attention to detail. Keep it up dude!

[GabuEx]

@ODSTD56 Of course it's going to be free! :)

[ODSTD56]

@GabuEx *does Rainbow Dash's "So Awesome" face*

[sdaerfofsteam2]

@ODSTD56 /)^3^(\

[ODSTD56]

@sdaerfofsteam2 Oh BTW *glomps Applebloom* SHES SOOOOO CUTE!

[slicerthehedgehog]

[ODSTD56]

@slicerthehedgehog OH GOD CUPCAKES!

[slicerthehedgehog]

@ODSTD56 I liked it :3

[ODSTD56]

@slicerthehedgehog (0)n(0) *runs away from you*

[1534015]

I think I know who would that be. It's just my thought, but... I think it's Spike, who stole the gem.

[1994AnimalCrossing]

want to play this game :D

[darklink223456]

ponyjection ?

[PokKimba]

I ewant play thisgame



[TEAMFORTRESS2SUX]

ya niggas pathetic

[streetfighter122]

Would interrogations keep with the usual "You have to present the right evidence AT THE RIGHT LINE" approach similar to what is seen in the Ace Attorney game? Because it seems like you have it so the evidence is all that you need to get right.

[GabuEx]

@streetfighter122 Yes, you have to present evidence in response to the right line. If the same evidence presented in this demo had been presented on a different line of dialog, it would have failed.

[streetfighter122]

@GabuEx So the last thing you need to worry about is implementing the health system.

[ZeusAssassin]

@streetfighter122 You'd be surprised how much more he's got left to do. Although this will be an AA inspired experience, we are making some tweaks in the formula in order to make it the most fair and fun AA styled game on the internet.

Thanks for the interest and please stay tuned for more info!!!

[bananasarehappy]

can't wait! please try and work quickly, it just seems so awesome! (\^3^/)

[TheDarkZoren]

this seams very similar to phenix wright ace attorney. did you base this game off it? the sound effects and music are very similar.

[GabuEx]

@TheDarkZoren Yes, it's quite strongly based on Ace Attorney, or more specifically, Ace Attorney Investigations.

[SPASLORD]

This looks fairly interesting keep up the good work!

[Julianpig77]

i love ace investigator, i also love ponies.

the 2 of them together = PHWOOOOOOARR

[MultiAht]

I love Phoenix Wright and Investigations! This is awesomely awesome!

[Rubberman202]

I'm assuming this is still a work in progress... For some reason, I see Discord as a sort of "final boss" of this game with a really complicated interrogation, if he somehow does managed to become a recurring villain.

[TheKeyblademaster001]

if i am correct, you will be continuing this game and its features in detailed video for info and simple explination (atleast simple to me ... not sure about someone else) none the less thanks for the info and hope for more dude =)

[TheKeyblademaster001]

if i am correct, you will be continuing this game and its features in detailed video for info and simple explination (atleast simple to me ... not sure about someone else) none the less thanks for the info and hope for more dude =)

[Firewolf269]

Why does the Brony Fandom have higher quality fan projects?

[DetectiveRage]

How many cases are there? And Trixie better make an appearance in this game!

[ZeusAssassin]

@DetectiveRage Can't say right now, but it'll most likely be the standard 4-5 case structure for a typical AA game. Of course, the beauty of MLI is that Gabu plans to have the game engine be accessible to fans so that they can create their own cases and keep the series going.

As for Trixie, let's just say that we aren't leaving out any pony or creature out of consideration. We are planning to bring tons of detail and important development to some of the characters from the show. Stay tuned!!!

[Heartdelay]

I haven't played ace attorney ever, but i'm sooooo excited for this.

[Cannonball7171]

Nice game! Although it looks alot like the game Detective Grimoire doesn't it?

[Gutslove]

Do want D8



[TheWeatherman100]

I have to say, the dialog looks perfectly in character and the story so far seems like it could be a episode itself! Nicely done.

[nelfer320]

I love the Ace Attorney series......please make this happen. XD!

[Platychidnapus]

And Philomena as the happy-go-lucky, spiky feathered defense attorney!

... oh my God. I am so, so, sorry. I just had to.

[gustavohmp]

I hate this pony shit, but if you make it work... I might consider becoming a fan.

[ZeusAssassin]

@gustavohmp While it's not a personal goal of Gabu to convert people into Bronies, he really is putting a lot of effort/detail into this game. I hope you stick around to play the full game by the time it's finished. Gabu and I are NOT letting MLI drop into mediocrity.

We have gotten a LOT done and discussed since this video was posted. I'm sure you will be impressed with the next video. If not, then it's cool. ;) This game isn't for everyone.

[expostier]

plz make it a game!!! even online or w/e plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Ultima2343]

Needs moar Objection. And blinking too, it's kinda creepy when they don't move at all...

[ZephernVideos]

Please keep this going with all your heart! Not only are you one million times better than Capcom, you're a god of the MLP fanbase!

[GabuEx]

@ZephernVideos Wow, thank you for the glowing praise! :) Don't worry, this project is still very much in progress; I haven't had a new gameplay video out in a while solely because the next thing I'm implementing has proven to require more than I had anticipated before I'll be able to make a satisfactory demo video. I should be ready to show more before TOO much longer.

[ZephernVideos]

@GabuEx

You're very welcome! It's all very much deserved. You take your time with the videos to make sure you get everything just right. This and season two are making me very excited! :D

[ElboTheHedgehog]

I want background music

[FinalRadiance]

What, no, screw action, I'd rather have some Investigations that require brain functions kthnx. I'm glad to see that something like this is being developed, I love the Ace Attorney series, and this just puts two things I love in one. Well done.

[baconlabs]

Hey, if Harvey Birdman did a successful commercial Ace Attorney spinoff, how could this go wrong? I'm looking forward to this.

[here4faves]

Is... is this all there is? Just... a bunch of mild animation and reading a bunch of stories? It's like an eroge/visual novel. I WANT ACTION. D: Like... Sonic for instance.

[GabuEx]

@here4faves Wait, then why are you watching this video? :P

Have a look at MLP: Fighting Is Magic if you want action.

[TheWhitenite0]

@here4faves Have you ever played Ace Attorney? That's exactly what the game is.

[HedjaHead]

Why do talented people have to be so fucked in the head?

[DayBreakization]

@HedjaHead What does that even mean?

[GabuEx]

@Lunarvx22 That's fine; I wouldn't want people to feel obligated to support it.

[Squishsquash93]

@GabuEx I... I think I Love you, i've had this idea in my mind since I've started watching the show. I cant wait to see the end result :D

[DayBreakization]

@Lunarvx22 *head-desk*

[banjowithkazooie]

this looks like its gonna be awesome to tell you the truth iv never played ace attorney but this will definitely tell me if i will like it :D. awesome work i cant wait until it gets released.

[gcdm4]

What is this game going to be for? iOS, Flash, Android? And if you're gonna make it for smartphones, please don't only make it for iOS....

[GabuEx]

@gcdm4 It's a PC game written in C# using XNA.

[gcdm4]

@GabuEx Holy hell that was fast.

[GabuEx]

@gcdm4 I had my email window open when the YouTube notification arrived. :P

[euoumopepisdn]

Pretty cool so far, It'd be more realistic if there was consequences for pushing someone too far for information like in the Hotel Dusk/Last Window series. :)

[AnimeDamage]

Someone do a Let's Play of this once it is fully completed. *everyone glares at me*

O_O Uh... what? Why is everyone glaring at me? Um... I don't think... um... uh...

*runs like hell*

[OppositeParadox]

@AnimeDamage I would. Totally do that.

I love AA and ponies. It'd be worth it. H8rs gun H8.

[AnimeDamage]

@OppositeParadox

I can't though without permission. I SERIOUSLY doubt I'll get that... *whistles innocently*

[GabuEx]

@AnimeDamage Wait, why do you think I wouldn't let you do a Let's Play of this? :P

[AnimeDamage]

@GabuEx

I don't know... wait... you don't care? O_O Crap... what do I do now...

I know...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

*has a witness breakdown*

[AnimeDamage]

@GabuEx

Fine. I'll... think about it.

[ZephernVideos]

@AnimeDamage

You can be absolutely sure I'll be doing a Let's Play when the Beta or even a Demo comes out!

I loved the Ace Attorney series, and I'm a huge fan of Faust cartoons! (:

[BrainDammage1000]

6:18

that looks more like a chicken

[CrispyYoshi]

@TheCheezWizz Oh hey, I remember you. You probably don't remember me, but that's besides the point. I'm kind of curious now, though: What gave you the sudden urge to go on a pony fangame page and start rage-harding about it in front of a bunch of people?

[juliengarneau]

This looks sooooooo good!

[jacugo]

if she was at the park how come a piece of her cape was found in rarity's house?

[GabuEx]

@jacugo It was found outside her house, not in her house, and they were indeed outside her house. Although in reading it again I can see how "at the scene" could cause confusion; I didn't mean to say literally right next to the spot where the jewel had been.

[SoLinkSmash]

All the explaining you do = Ace Attorney.

No offence, but we know how the game works.

[GabuEx]

@SoLinkSmash You know how the game works, but I know for a fact there are many people who are interested in this who have not played an Ace Attorney game. More explanation leaves those who know what's being explained momentarily annoyed, while less explanation can leave those who don't permanently in the dark. I think it's better to err in the former direction than the latter.

[spider394]

@GabuEx this is true, I haven't played ace attorney before, and I sure haven't played Ace Attorney Investigations yet. So this is very helpful for newcomers to the genre.

[ZetsubouJohnny]

@SoLinkSmash i've never played ace attorney. but i will be playing this game

[neonal18]

Geez, where is all the hate coming from?

[xSh0ckWaVe]

/v/ is so mad. It's hilarious.

[PaddedWhiteRoom]

@xSh0ckWaVe that thread, man.

[xSh0ckWaVe]

@PaddedWhiteRoom I know, I make it every couple of weeks or so. Shit's fun.

[iusethelancer1]

@xSh0ckWaVe When is /v/ not mad over something?

/v/ is like a spoiled child, it is never content with what it has.
