We've got big plans for marketing efforts and look forward to announcing a definitive release date soon.
Happy Anniversary (Again), guys!
This marks the end of Year TWO of development since it was funded by the 414 generous folks who backed the potential they saw behind Battle Gem Ponies. (Thanks for that, for real guys.)
The #1 thought on the YotesMark team's mind is making a game that lives up to the hype we've promised. To not be another Kickstarter disappearance story. So we've kept regular updates going every step of the way. A clear and detailed task list so we always know what feature is needed next, and what features need to be cut for time to ensure it's out by Early 2024.
Everyone who ordered Add-Ons from the BGP Kickstarter should've gotten some special stuff in the mail recently, or can at least expect it to show up before March 1st.
(If not, double check your address listed on Kickstarter and let ol' Tony Yotes know if there's been a mixup.)
It's been so nice to see the posts of people opening up their packages and we can't wait for the next wave with all the international ones and the PILE of T-Shirts to come!
More details on that and new stuff that's available now beyond the page break below!

It's our Patreon Anniversary! (From 2017 to 2022...)
It's amazing how far we've come and how long we've kept going despite the hurdles.📈
Big THANKS to EVERY backer keeping this #indiedev dream afloat! 🛳️🥳

If you're in a rush, the short summary is that the game won't be out for another 12-16 months, the merch store is closing in October so if you want extra shirts better grab 'em now, the physical Kickstarter rewards will start going out in October (excluding all the stuff that won't come 'til release), and we have far reaching plans to make Battle Gem Ponies a full-fledged series when this is all said and done.
We're looking forward to all the updates to come over the next year and are eternally grateful for every backer's help in making it possible.
Thank you all so much, for following the development of Battle Gem Ponies!

And this crowdfunding campaign comes with a New Free Demo too, so pretty sweet deal all around.

Thanks for following the development of Battle Gem Ponies, btw. One of the best parts of making this game is knowing we won't be the only ones who get to play it.
It's an old-school inspired RPG featuring a cast of awesome and adorable collectible pony characters jam-packed with personality!
A several-years-in-the-making love letter to the Monster Tamer genre.
Take a look at a nice summary (copypasta'd from the LONG draft of the Kickstarter Page) after the page break!
Made a walkthrough video going over the game's development history and unique mechanics. (Timestamps included)
Showing how a Pokemon Uranium inspired MLP mashup turned into a fully-fledged commercial indie effort. As well as all the special little touches that makes BGP an interesting take on the Monster Tamer genre. Check it out and give our YouTube channel a Subscribe while you're at it.
