Pony Island 2… it’s happening
This is a game I haven’t stopped thinking about since I first released Pony Island almost 8 years ago. Panda Circus has occupied a little corner in the back of my mind as I developed The Hex and Inscryption. It was exciting to look back on all the ideas I had for the game over those years and finally sit down to start working on it.
This is also making good on a promise that the original Pony Island ARG made. It wasn’t a joke.
If you want to be notified when the game comes out you can wishlist it here on Steam or join the mailing list.
Thanks for sticking with me all these years! I can’t wait for you to play it.

Thanks once again for playing Pony Island and for your support over the years. Inscryption is sure to scratch many of the same itches that Pony Island did. So keep an eye or two on it.
Daniel Mullins Games presents: Inscryption
From the creator of Pony Island and The Hex comes the latest mind melting, self-destructing love letter to video games. Inscryption is a narrative focused, card-based odyssey that blends the deckbuilding roguelike, escape-room style puzzles, and psychological horror into a blood-laced smoothie. Darker still are the secrets inscrybed upon the cards..
More here!
Coming in 2021...
My next game, The Hex, is out!
The inciting incident in The Hex is a phone call that the bartender at an old inn receives. Because of a raging storm the connection is shaky; he can hear that there is a murder plot, but not who is planning it. The only possible suspects are the six patrons of the inn, each of them a videogame protagonist with a history of failures and felonies. In sequence, the player takes control of the characters and eventually triggers a memory from their past. This is where it gets interesting.
Each character’s past plays out in an entirely different game genre. The majority of The Hex’s ~6 hour play time is actually playing each of these 6 different sub-games. They are mechanically diverse yet themes and aesthetics tie them together, making The Hex feel like more than a collection of minigames. At times genres are bent and blended together.
I’ve been working on The Hex full-time for the better part of 2.5 years. It’s the biggest, most complex project I’ve ever undertaken by a great measure. Jonah Senzel, the composer behind Pony Island’s OST, has also been working on The Hex. He created an incredibly diverse soundtrack with over 20 original tracks and also handled the sound design. For the last stretch of the project I had the pleasure of working with Brendan Sullivan (@artofsully) who created some fantastic 3D models, as well as voice actor Michael Mola.
The Hex shares some similarities with Pony Island: games within games, frequent surprises, and a heavy helping of secrets. I think it's safe to say that if you liked Pony Island, you will like this next one.
Thank you all for supporting me and my games!
