Slightly surprised there wasn't a topic about this yet.
Mane6, the dev team who were working on MLP: Fighting is Magic, before it was C&D'ed, have been making progress developing a new fighting game, and Intellectual Property, with the help of Lauren Faust and using the Skullgirls engine. They've launched an Indiegogo campaign in order to fund the project, which they've been working on in their spare time up until now.
The new game has no connections to MLP, aside from featuring talking, hoofed animals as the main cast, and is an entirely new IP. It also has some pretty cool features, beyond it being a solid-looking, 2D, four-button fighter. I'm really interested in the dynamic music system and interactive lobby. I'm pretty hype for this game since I loved the work these guys were putting into Fighting is Magic, and this looks to have more polish, originality and character.
Short story; if you've ever wanted to play a fighting game in which cute, hoofed critters beat each other up, this might be up your alley!
