My point is, I don’t expect the full game to be leaked. So much so, in fact, that they found the leak of the EVO build quite devastating. The team took great pride in their work and refused to release it until they had the 6 main characters complete. Unlike most free fan projects, this one has been very closed. The bad news is that the more polished version with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy in it has not. The good news is that last year’s EVO build (the one featured in the combo video) was leaked so the game can be played weather Hasbro likes it or not. Especially when the game has been in very high profile development for two years. They even allowed episodes of the show to be hosted on YouTube because to them it was “free advertising”. However, Hasbro had traditionally been very accepting (and even supportive) of fan works like this. However, after two years of development and the game nearing completion, Hasbro hit the team with a Cease & Desist letter. In fact, this game is the only reason me and many of my friends even bothered giving the show a chance! With its entry as a potential game for EVO and a front page GameSpot article, it was receiving a lot of attention. However there was absolutely no denying that fan-made fighting game Fighting is Magic looked impressive. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has become something of a…divisive internet phenomenon.
