Somewhere, there's an magical forest where beautiful, magical creatures live.

"Magpie" hunts those creatures. For a price, however.

She, her partner "Blue Jay", and an assortment of other hunters were hired to capture a unicorn, a powerful, rare animal. However, while they capture the unicorn with relative ease, getting him out of the forest proves not to be.

Eventually, Magpie has to wonder: is taking a rare magical animal from its home really an advisable thing? And, maybe, she should really consider the difference between an animal and a person.



>The main character, a no-nonsense hunter who can get the job done; she and Blue Jay share leader duties
>Can't stand her nickname among the hunters, 'Boss Lady'



>The wild unicorn captured by Magpie
>Doesn't appreciate being called 'it'



>Magpie's partner/leader, he's a more relaxed than her, but seemingly greedier
>Enjoys teasing Magpie by encouraging the other hunters calling her by her annoying nickame


>The assorted group of hunters under the leadership of Magpie and Blue Jay
>Most of them call Magpie "Ma'am", despite being similar in age to her

Well, I don't think excited covers how I feel about this

The characters are gorgeous and the concept sounds awesome!

Yes please!!

As a lifelong equestrian and a lover of horse-related stories, I'm extremely happy to see this thread.

I was wondering when this thread was going to make an appearance.
Good luck!

Yeah a story about unicorn(s)! After centaurs, I think it's my favorite mythological animal. So a "human" unicorn like the sprite suggests? Hell yeah!)

Oh no, the Unicorn is quite moe cute. >_>

Awesomepigman and I are pretty excited to see this finished! Don't give up! It looks amazing!!

I love Magpie's expression and character design, actually all of the designs, really. I love the concept and am very curious as to what direction it will take. How many paths/endings are you planning?

Thanks. I think we can all use a little more magic horses in our lives.

At least three: good, bad, and neutral. The only path currently planned is for the unicorn.

UPDATE:

• Sprites done
• CGs began
• Coding began

Also, it's starting to look like an actual game:

HOLY COW I can't wait to play Magpie. She looks just stone cold awesome XD I love when you get a "I have the power, but what is the ethical choice" kind of plot, done with a woman in the position of power instead of the more conventional dude. And that unicorn! Yesssssss~ XD

Super excited for this! :D

Miiink! All characters sounds/looks awesome! Good luck to both of you

Holy bejesus, yes! I loved your art as soon as I saw Magpie and then I scrolled down and saw Mr. Unicorn. First thought, "Yes, thank you, I will be playing this game." Love the story idea, can't wait to see how it turns out. Good luck, guys!

That plot sounds really interesting and I love the idea of a no nonsense protagonist. Like Fox Lee said above, I really like that it's the girl in the position of power. Can't wait to see more of this!
