Hey, everypony! It's that time of year again - that time when we just about squeeze out an update at the end of a 'season'!

As always, you can find the full list of what's changed in our changelog; it's not a huge list this time around, but be assured we've got some big things in the works! For now, let's take a quick look at some of the highlights.

First off, and perhaps most importantly, it's the third anniversary of Legends of Equestria's Open Access Release! We're proud of having reached this milestone, and we can't thank each and every one of you enough for taking this journey with us. In celebration, we've updated our obligatory birthday cupcake hat to reflect the achievement!



We've also had a major rework of one of our less-well-developed systems - namely, soothing an enemy. It hasn't worked all that well so far, so like good little chemists, we went back into the lab and gave it a good shaking until it came out the way we wanted! (Note: we don't recommend this as a methodology for actual chemistry)



The enemies you face should now properly display how Angry they are with you for bothering them in their busy day of walking back and forth occasionally, using the right-hand bar on the reticule when you target them - and skills with Soothing effects should properly help to calm them down! Note that you'll still gain full experience and items from soothing an enemy that's angry with you. Now there's more than one way to deal with confrontation!



Of course, since this is our summer(ish) update, the Festival of Lights in-game event should now be active! Collect those prismatic shards and get in touch with everypony's favourite clothes-horse if you haven't collected your technicolor lantern yet.

As always, you can grab the newest version of the game from our dowloads page. That's everything from us for now; we hope you enjoy the new release, and we'll see you in Equestria!

Hello again, everypony! Summer's right around the corner, so let's get the snow removed properly and plants growing in our latest release, now available at our downloads page!

Let's start with some much needed bug fixes. First, pegasus ponies will no longer get sent flying when they fly directly onto the ground. Shops will also no longer take your bits when you try to buy new items with a full inventory.

We have also rebalanced the energy usage for each pony race! Earth ponies now lose less energy when sprinting, and pegasus ponies' energy drain in flight will depend on whether they're flying upwards or downwards.



Now for our most exciting new feature: two new Talents for everypony to try!
Ponies far and wide can now grab themselves a pickaxe and start mining for some useful ores, or maybe even something rarer if they are lucky, with the Mining Talent!



Earth ponies in particular have also found a place to grow their seeds into fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as cultivate rare flowers, with the Farming Talent.



While we are still looking for teachers to help foals learn the art of Farming and Mining, anypony can enjoy trying their hoof at these skills for now. But don't be discouraged, our hunt for a teacher is still ongoing!

Unicorns and pegasi, fret not; your second unique talents are being developed, and will come in due time. For now, you can check out more details regarding this update in our changelog for the release.

Now, what are you waiting for? Grab yourself a pickaxe or your nearest Earth pony friend to try out our new talents: Mining and Farming! We hope to see you in Equestria soon!

Hey again, everypony! It's time once again for an update to Legends of Equestria! Are you excited for a potential host of riveting new features? Well, allow me to temper your expectations by providing the details of what's available with this latest release, now available from our downloads page!

First off, we should cover the range of improvements to our UI. The hotbar has received a lot of love in this update, allowing it to better respond to your display size, and swap around hotbar tiles - as well as customise how it's displayed on your screen!



We've also improved our equipment system, to better handle unequipping items that conflict with what you're trying to put on. This should hopefully cut down on the devastating menace of sock-stacking!



On top of that, we've worked on tackling trading bugs, like inventory overflow issues, which should (forelocks crossed!) no longer happen! And to top things off, more customised emote icons have been added, to help you better distinguish between, for example, lying down and having a snooze!



As always, though, there's more changes than that; you can find our full list of changes for this release in our changelog.

That's everything for now; we hope you enjoy what Equestria has to offer! And with a little luck - and a little hard work on wrapping a few things up - we'll see you again soon...

Happy new... uh, decade, everypony! We hope you're all doing well and looking forward to another ten years of small-horse-related adventures - because there's no breaks on the LoE train!



That's right, Legends of Equestria V2020.01.01 is now available from our downloads page!

We're kicking off 2020 right, with a few more features for you all to enjoy! Perhaps the most important - and one of the most requested features - is a more effective way to navigate. The minimap can now be enlarged to provide more information about the area, and help you find your way around!



On a similar note, we've also added markers to the map for important locations, such as banks or crafting stations; these - along with quest markers - can be toggled on or off to help make things clearer!



We've also got the very serious addition of improved motion physics, allowing for collision objects to travel atop other moving objects. It's all very useful and major, and should in no way be taken as an encouragement to create mobile pony towers.



And what update would be complete without a new cosmetic item? A Chromatic Scarf is now available to help keep you warm - and colourful - through the winter months.



If you want to see the full details of what's included in this update, as always, you can check the changelog. We really hope you enjoy these new features, and we can't wait to see you all in Equestria!

Greetings once again, everypony! It hasn't been that long since we last brought you an update, but 'tis the season for surprises, so we've got another one for you! Our 2019 fall update (V2019.02.02) is now available to download!

It hasn't been that long since we brought out our (slightly belated) summer update, so it might not be much of a surprise to learn that this is a smaller one than that was! If you want the full details, you can always check out our changelog, but here's a few key notes!

First, and perhaps most notably, the spooky season has rolled around once more - and that means that costumes are the order of the day! Our batpony costume is once again available to everypony celebrating this holiday, known in Equestria as Hallowtide. What are the origins of this festivity, you might ask? Well, a bit of investigation might lead you to the story the event is based on... maybe somewhere spooky would be a good place to start?



We've also made some more minor improvements to things that might be less notable, but no less important. Collision issues with some places in Applewood, new music for the White Tail Park (as well as some funky musical pads!), and some fixes to particle effects, to name a few!



That's everything for now! We hope you enjoy everything we've added to our little horse world so far, but there's always plenty more to look forward to in the future! We'll see you in Equestria!
