In my opinion it clashes with the sound fx quite a bit. On 1/31/2021 at 9:35 PM, _The Doctor__ said: I second a volume control, it's in the way of sound affects.. You might leave it loud on title and selection screen but in the background during the game would be nice. New version 0.90 New version of Adventure Ponies is available. Adjusted the volume of sound effects/level music so the music doesn't drown out the sound effects.

Gibstov Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 I found the original Adventure Ponies flash game on archive.org if any one is interested. https://archive.org/details/adobeflash-adventureponies Since Adobe Flash is legacy now, I found a way to run it as well, using the Adobe Flash Player 32 (specifically the "Download the Flash Player projector content debugger"). https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/debug_downloads.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari8guy Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Just have to offer my complements. My daughter, who is all of age 4, absolutely loves this game and I love that it gets her to use and appreciate my Atari. So just know, there is a 4 year old in Canada who loves the Ponies who adores this game. Thank you! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes me happy that your daughter adores the game, and that it brings a younger generation to the old Atari computer. ?

invisible kid Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) For some reason, adobe flash player wasn't playing the adventure ponies flash game correctly on my system. I did a search and this version runs on my system: link: http://kenny.next-era.net/mlp8bit.zip zip file from link: mlp8bit.zip Edited August 1, 2021 by invisible kid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible kid Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Oh, one last thing on the flash version, I was able to use a program called AntiMicroX on linux to map the keyboard buttons to my gamepad and play with the gamepad. The original keys are a bit awkward for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened in the middle of my porting it over to the Atari, and using the Flash version as a template. I ended up having to find and keep an older version of Flash so I could continue running the game. However, I didn't have that issue with the stand alone Adobe player from here: https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/debug_downloads.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible kid Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 In searching the recesses of my dark and cob-webbed memory, I now vaguely remember having problems downloading the torrent(would hang on certain files) and I think it never finished downloading the swf file because of that. Maybe I'll test just directly downloading the files from the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibstov Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 I have created a manual for Adventure Ponies, in electronic form using Neon. Find more information on Neon here: Please find the Manual on the attached ATR. After it boots into the NEON program, choose (R) for read, and the press enter when it asked for the filespec. Use the joystick to navigate links. Manual.atr 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks...my next goal with Neon is to start testing it with FujiNet. I need to create a disk with the N: handler and Neon. And then either set up a TFNS server, or create a website and see if I can browse with Neon using the N: device. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
