And to think it all started with a hater...

It all started with a comment on my second Raridoom test video. I've edited a word for content.

The fact this exists... pains me greatly. Thanks for infecting the Doom Community with this sort of blight. Its disrespectful to the original game to even conceive of a mod like this and not make it ironic or make it where you kill the little technicolored bastards with guns and s**t. Seriously this Brony thing has gone too far...

I answered in some sarcastic way and that's where that conversation ended. But he got me thinking. What if there was a game about killing ponies? How would that even work? How could that even be justified?

Then I accidentally read this story, set in the Conversion Bureau universe (but untagged as such). I'd heard of the universe but none of the stories I'd seen called to me. After that, I derped around in the groups, looking at what made this universe tick.

After a lot of research, it occurred to me that I'd rather die a human than live as a pony. Besides having fingers and hair in only a few places on my body, I kindof like me. I'm a slacker, I'm lazy, I'm sarcastic; but I'm me. And I like me. I don't mind representing myself as a pony (like on my avatar) but I wouldn't want to be one. And I could see myself killing a pony who was trying to convert me and call it justifiable self-defense.

So that's where this game comes in. It'll be a mod for DoomII (and it'll be a good, clean mod; I've learned a lot) using mostly FreeDoom textures as bases (meaning the game will work with either DoomII or FreeDoom, but the new textures are modified from FreeDoom resources). It'll be worked on after Raridoom is done or when I get hit with my ADD again.

And I might be requesting a lot of help with this one. It's fairly sketchy at the moment but already I can see I'll be doing a crapton of spriting. We'll see.

I have no idea how this will be received.
