{{#seo: |title=Vita Homebrew Games (Puzzle) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=ponyislandvita2.png |image_alt=Pony Island }} Pony Island is a suspense puzzle game in disguise. You are in limbo, trapped in a malevolent and malfunctioning arcade machine devised by the devil himself. The devil detests having his puzzles solved and poor programming exposed; you will need to think outside the box to proceed and you will be insulted when you do. This is a PS Vita port that contains a stripped VPK file for the game and a series of patches, that when combined will produce a fully playable version of Pony Island on the PS Vita. Please note that you will need to obtain the game files for yourself to make this work ([https://store.steampowered.com/app/405640/Pony_Island/ PC Steam]). ==Installation== ===Steam=== Note that the files you need are in the depot with it's ID being <code>405641</code>. You can check what depot you currently possess by taking a look at the file in (<code>STEAM INSTALL HERE)/steamapps/appmanifest_405640.acf</code>. The depot you have installed should be under <code>"InstalledDepots</code>. *Download the repository and extract it to a new folder. *Go to your game folder, grab all of it's contents (<code>PonyIsland.exe</code>, <code>PonyIsland_Data folder</code>, etc.) and put them in a new folder called "game" (case-sensitive) in the repository folder. *Run the <code>applyPatch.bat</code> file and let it sit until it shows "Done!" on the command line. *There now should be a folder called patchedFiles with all of the patched content inside. ===How to setup=== Folder method: *Connect your PS Vita to your computer via USB/FTP with [[VitaShell]]. *Make a new folder on your Vita's SD Card (can be named whatever you want). *Open up the .VPK file from the Releases page of the repository and take it's contents to the new folder you just created.. *Do the same thing but with the patchedFiles' contents. *Select the folder on Vitashell and press Triangle. *Go all the way down to More > Install folder, confirm your selection. VPK method: *Open up the .VPK file from the Releases page of the repository and drag 'n drop the patchedFiles' contents to the root of the VPK file. *Connect your PS Vita to your computer via USB/FTP with [[VitaShell]]. *Drag 'n drop your VPK file to your desired location on your SD Card. *Install the VPK file. At last, be sure to create a folder called "PonyIsland" in ux0:data/. This folder is essential to create, otherwise if you don't, the game will freeze on certain moments. ==Controls== Left Analog or Touchscreen - Move Cursor, Interact Cross - Jump (Pony) Circle - Laser (Pony) Right Analog - Scroll text D-Pad - Minigame (Move) Square - Minigame (Shoot) Start - Pause Menu Should there ever be an instance where you need to type in something, press Triangle to bring up the on-screen keyboard, and then Cross Button to submit your answer. ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ponyislandvita3.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/ponyislandvita4.png ==Media== '''Pony Island (PC) - playthrough (no commentary)''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwZGarhGBgc Vaud]) <br> <youtube>xwZGarhGBgc</youtube> ==Changelog== '''v1.2''' * Initial Release. == Credits == * [https://www.reddit.com/user/Dexxtrip BonQ] for testing the game out. * [https://github.com/Ibrahim778 M Ibrahim] for helping me implement the Common Dialog API in Unity (that was a nightmare to do...). * [https://github.com/v-atamanenko gl33ntwine] for the PS buttons for the repo. * and [https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/danielmullinsgames Daniel Mullins Games] of course for making Pony Island. ==External links== * GitHub - https://github.com/hatoving/PonyIsland * VitaDB - https://vitadb.rinnegatamante.it/#/info/1021 * Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/vitahacks/comments/zi0gz6/release_pony_island_for_the_ps_vita/ * Donation link - https://kyuhen.customprotocol.com/en/submissions/love/ [[Category:Support the author]]
