About The Pony Factory


Winston arrived at a solution to the moral decay of his town.

He called out to hell, and hell answered. The human body could, hell promised, be twisted and stretched into a kinder, more equine shape. Winston's town, now filled with ignorant hate-mongers, could instead be filled with magical ponies, if he could provide a factory in which to make them. Winston thought they would be beautiful, gentle, and good.

Hell had other plans...

Fun little game that doesn't take itself particularly seriously. I recommend it if you like very short, and very indie, experiences.
Recommended Sep 10, 2026
I like the part where I kill ponies. I also like the part where I kill more ponies.

♥♥♥♥ you david i hate you i hate this game i hate all you. 9/10 horror game tho.
Not recommended Sep 6, 2026
I hardly ever review games. I really enjoy David's games. This is the first of his catalog that I simply can't recommend. I simply don't think it's for me. I wanted a horror story with shooter mechanics. The story is instead trying to be funny, but it tries to be funny at the expense of the atmosphere. The shooter mechanics are also just really boring and bland. It often feels more like artificial difficulty because of how simple the mechanics are.
Recommended Aug 30, 2026
Quite short, that's not a bad thing though. It doesn't over stay its welcome at all and is very atmospheric with some scares in there. Solid game to pass an hour.
Recommended Aug 19, 2026
Game very interestingly combines shooting with light distribution by locking shooting while using the flashlight. With extremely dark levels, it makes gameplay very tense and hard especially in the end, when levels are less linear. Reccomended for those who likes light and visibility mechanics in gameplay.
