Hi. We're Yotes Games,
and we're making a game about superpowered ponies
beating the ever loving crud out of each other.
Battle Gem Ponies is a turn-based RPG featuring 3v3 combat.
Battle Gem Ponies originally launched on Steam Greenlight years ago
and we've been taking it to cons and improving on the concept
based on the feedback people have been giving us.
I'm a gamer like all of you.
So when the pandemic came around, I thought to myself:
"Stay at a Fortune 500 Company, making an app used by millions?
Or join an indie dev team?"
The choice to me was obvious. I can't think of a better way
of expressing my passion for video games,
other than making them.
So I joined the Yotes team. Together, we're going
to make games everyone will love.
With battle being one of the biggest aspects of an RPG,
we have created a playground to experience the battle mechanics
which you can download RIGHT NOW.
More demos are on the way, which will include
pieces of the overworld for you to experience.
The overworld is coming along nicely,
and we look forward to keeping you updated along the way.
In this world, superpowered ponies run around in the wild,
fighting each other for sport.
Some of these ponies team up with human beings to increase their power.
Only about 20% of the population ever gets to become one of these "pony tamers".
Some organizations see this as an opportunity to...
Do what companies do.
And they have invented the Poni-Bot! So anyone can become a tamer.
But this company's been using that money to fund their real intentions...
Alicorns. That have been known to terraform the world itself.
Harnessing their power would mean you could weaponize natural disasters.
In Battle Gem Ponies there's a lot of unique mechanics
and great features that make it stick out from other Monster Tamer type games.
Some of those features include:
Progression systems from things like Paper Mario,
Funny humor from Undertale,
And the Monster diversity from Pokémon.
Battle Gem Ponies includes a balanced roster of elemental ponies.
Your pony can rapidly switch to 1 of 3 different forms,
AND attack on the same turn.
Each pony has 4 move slots, with each assigned to different roles.
Including moves with dual elemental types.
This game also doesn't waste your time with grinding
with its unique level up system.
And that's what makes it fun.
You can play the game again in New Game+,
and you can try out different paths that you've never taken before,
min max stats, and see how your pony reacts in different situations.
We want to keep this momentum going.
With your support, we can get more people involved.
And the more Stretch Goals we pass,
the fewer things left on the cutting room floor.
And we have all sorts of rewards planned.
Things you might wanna get your hands on.
We want to give Battle Gem Ponies the attention it deserves.
And we can do that, with your help.
To everyone that's been following the game's development so far,
Thank you.
And to everyone supporting us now...
It really means the world to us.
