Back on it! Forthcoming additions: Pony mod maker Global murder leaderboard FOV and Mouse Sensitivity for first-pony view Darker themes can be switched off (if you don't want to see murders graphically described) Vastly improved torture mechanic Many bugs fixed New music New achievements And more!

NATG Day 28: Draw a pony improving something! Nothing like a little sewing on a stallionday morning to relax after a long night of work! #NATG #NATGDay28 #SlaughterHorse2

NATG Day 1: Draw a pony standing / Draw a pony posing for the camera! "We had no clue whatsoever of who we welcomed into our community until it was far, far too late." - Merry Prancer, one of the few survivors of The Beast of Withersmont. #NATGDay1 #SlaughterHorse2

So I may have asked the Speedrun website to make a Slaughter Horse 2 Page... and they did! I am kinda in shock I totally expected to get denied! #slaughterhorse2 #speedrunning @catsmeatstudios.bsky.social www.speedrun.com/Slaughter_Ho...

The new usermods for the next update work differently from the default ones in that you can have as many of them active as you like. So you'll be able to do things like make mane layer and back layer mods for some really bouffant manes. This stallion feels fabulous. #slaughterhorse2 #indiedev

Someone on the Steam forums has found a seed that Indeed generates Pony Horse in a 40 pony town. What's remarkable is the seed is... "PonyHorseSpy" with the caps. I did not write that in (there are no secret seeds at this point at all) so it's pretty boggling. The legend of Pony Horse never dies.

Made Slaughter Horse 2 in my Tomodachi save :)

Got bogged down on the new torture, so I've decided to just fix some bugs, but I've also got this working. No manes for your OC? Draw them yourself and add them in! There's limitations, the colour sliders won't change them but you'll really be able to custom your pones. #slaughterhorse2 #indiedev

Today is my birthday. That means I get to post my favourite music video, and you all just have to accept it. youtu.be/zD3swlmflHI?...

I'm often asked if SH2 will return to Android after I broke up with Google. While I can export an Android version, there were a lot of issues about distribution etc. I wasn't sure how to approach. Well Steam have quietly added a new option that makes all that a lot easier.

Sorry about that, here's the new link: discord.gg/Dt9YtRKUBU

Do you play Slaughter Horse 2? Or enjoy My Little Pony? You should join Withersmont! Withersmont is a Discord server based off the town from SH2 We have counting and economy bots, events, roleplay, and more! Join here! discord.gg/Bge5dt3k7T #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #mylittlepony

Today I've started work on reworking the whole torture thing. It's going to be a lot more up close and personal. #slaughterhorse2

For the next update so far: Total Kills Steam Leaderboard. You can change FPP fov and mouse sensitivity, which I should have done ages ago. And here's Cloudy, the mare who shows the game is downloading from the cloud. I meant her to look cute, and she actually looks demented. Which I like.

Sh2's latest update went up yesterday, lots of fixes, changes and new stuff. A huge change is the removal of the AGK shader pack. While this means it lost some nice effects, I think it was the primary causes of issues and crashes. The game also seems to run a lot better without it. Let me know!

More stuff for next update (should be sometime next week) *Bugfixes, including the rifle/key crash *Gallery of all Horse Art *The Magician finally weighs in *Game seeds (you can replay and share a generated town, can anyone find a seed that summons the legendary Pony Horse?) #slaughterhorse2

Ever receptive to player feedback (when awake) for the next update I've added an indicator on houses which shows whether an ingredient has been found there or it remains unchecked. Each house also has a tiny notepad, if you deduce something the game doesn't explicitly tell you, make a note!

With update 0.13.7 you can now create better shop logo pixel art and share it on the Steam Workshop. I give you the very first user submission. Am I surprised? Well... no. Not really. (Credit to Zaifer!) #mlp #indiedev #slaughterhorse2

With a day to go, SH2 has been considered to contain enough horse to be included in Steam's Horse Fest - beginning tomorrow. So for a week you can pay less for horse stuff. #slaughterhorse2 #indiedev #mlp #horsefest #anotherhorsetag

Steam: Look, we've automatically put your pony murder game in the event for pets and vet sims! Also Steam: Well, we didn't think it qualified for this one.

Imminent New Year, old cartoon. #garfield

You'll never guess what I got for Christmas.

Merry Christmas, everyone. www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5VF...

Here's all the vocal songs now on Spotify and loads of other places. And now more actual game coding to get an update out before Xmas. Some errors fixed from my original YT versions. url2734.distrokid.com/ls/click?upn... oh god why it SO LONG #slaughterhorse2 #distrokid #indiegame #music

One final (or actually a beginning) vocal track as uploading a set of only 3 songs to Spotify seemed a trifle skimpy. Exposition ahoy! #slaughterhorse2 #indiegame #synthv #teto #gumi #mai www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Kx...

The final part of SH2's Teto/GUMI/Mai endgame trilogy. This cheerful warble has Mai leading, and today she just can't help but sing about how everyone is about to string her up and they can all go to hell. #indiedev #indiegame #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #synthv #vocaloid youtu.be/eOmagwrpCdo

Here's the song for when you win but you murdered EVERYONE. Using "Tin Throne" an old track I dropped but quite a few People asked for it back. I gave it a brush up. Kasane Teto leads, asking only for a small baguette. youtu.be/qzP6pNuX5nM?... #slaughterhorse2 #vocaloid #teto #indiedev #indiegame

I'm making end game songs for SH2 that have lyrics, thanks to the power of synthv, Teto, GUMI and dear little Mai. Need a better thumbnail though. Two so far, one to go. youtu.be/M_sSc6qdH08?... #slaughterhorse2 #teto #indiedev

Big Macintosh doesn't look that happy about his coronation, but what might cheer him up is that 0.13.5 is now live, with a few fixes and additions. Steam is also asking if I want to put SH2 forward for a nomination, so that's next. Cards, emojis, etc. are all under review. Details of update are...

In other news for those who enjoy collecting cards, SH2 has been granted such status now - so soon we'll be dropping cards, badges, emoticons and backgrounds. With any luck these will appear next week - depends on how long it takes them to be approved. #sh2 #mlp #indiedev

Steam didn't think SH2 belonged with the Halloween event, but they DID think it matched up with Animal Fest. So along with the vet sims and pet rescue sims, you can also get a discount on a game where you brutally slay cartoon ponies. I don't make the rules. store.steampowered.com/app/2076260/...

couldn't resist as I'm a Kirby fan but I drew the Invincible Candy for my cake shop's door for #slaughterhorse2. need to think about what to do for the shop name and banner.

In another update for SH2, in the documents/workshop folder you can now find an 'imports' folder. You can drop all your QR code workshop hosses in there and upload them all to an empty set with one click. Fixed some bugs too! #sh2 #mlp #Indiedev

Hello folks, I have uploaded 0.13.3, the promised Friday update. Probably the trickiest thing was the addition of the Steam workshop, but with any luck it works. I mean, it works for me but experience has taught me that means nothing! So, as ever, let me know how it goes. Plenty of other fixes too.

making the pie sisters...i miss playing this game so much i love SH2 PEAK UPDATE #slaughterhorse2

I didn't intend to update until Friday, but I think (i hope!) I've solved some real game-breakers so 0.13.2 is now live on Steam. Let me know if things are working any better. There will still be a Friday update, where hopefully my focus will have been game play issues and not oh my god issues.

It's chasing bugs all the day long here at Catsmeat Studios (which is an alcove in my house full of crap, sadako figurines and empty energy drink cans) but I have managed to put in something special in time for halloween. Updating Friday! #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #indiedev

Hello! Quick fixes for Slaughter Horse 2 are now live on Steam. >I've used a different method to pack the game which seems to upset the virus checkers less and stops the issue of missing files. >If your game crashed during loading due to the shader message, when you start the game hold ESC...

If all is well and working pals, I'd love to see your OCs. Here's some of mine and you can import them in if so you wish. I've had a request for a bat pony option... well, maybe! #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #indiegame

Hello. 0.13 is now live, so it should update for you soon on Steam. It continues to upset Windows Defender, sorry about that! I'm still working on ways to convince it not to be so touchy. Updates going forward will be much more frequent. Fare thee well. #slaughterhorse2 #indiedev #mlp

The Steam promo video is very outdated at this point, so I made a new one for when 0.13 drops. Which is SOON. #mlp #slaughterhorse2 #indiegame www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRUL...

Hi folks. I've had some messages SH2 is suddenly throwing up virus warnings. I've also found that AGK Studio, without any changes, is now suddenly crashing randomly on me. I *suspect* these issues are related to Windows 10's end of life. Working on the game in AGK classic...

I love coding, but it works thus: Day 3: Basic game structure in place, Physic engine works, 90% of graphics done. Day 9,345: Go nuts trying to work out why a text object doesn't appear and spend 9 hours fiddling until changing its flag from 500 to 505 solves it and that doesn't even make sense.

@catsmeatstudios.bsky.social Once a blade now a mare. The blade that took life of many horses, now wandering around in the lonely snowy nights, at the snowy mountains. My take on Charlotte as pony. Her mane is also sharp.

STILL debugging 0.13, but doing my best! One request I heard way back when was for final words from the condemned ponies. We now have these! You also have the chance to speak when it's your neck in the noose and this wisdom is saved for posterity. #slaughterhorse #indiedev #gavedev #mlp #pony

made some fanart for #slaughterhorse2 !! i love you murder pony.. #mlp #mlpart

The council actually do some work in 0.13, most actions they take need to be passed with a majority vote - and the worse things are the more desperate and draconian the proposals put forward are. #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #gamedev #indiedev

I must share this wonderful art by Kibboz - it looks fantastic and really encapsulates the game! #slaughterhorse2 #mlp #indiedev #gamedev #fanart
