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. It is not a game about ponies.

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

By the time this thing comes out it will be ALMOST 5 YEARS in the making...It will be OVER 11 YEARS since Pony Island was released...If you can believe it, ideas have been stewing in my noggin the whole time.Here's a trailer:Wishlist it?Thank you from the bottom of my pony-sized heart for playing Pony Island! I hope Panda Circus is worth the wait.- Daniel
We’re excited to share that Daniel Mullins Games will be presenting... something... at Gamescom 2026.That means you’ll be able to catch a glimpse of what we’ve been working on right alongside some incredible titles from across the industry! We just hope that ours is the only one with pandas, crazy clowns, underworld lords, souls, and the guy from G-...yeah I am not finishing that.Where to Watch? stimulationWe will be part of the official Gamescom 2026 online broadcast. We’ll share the exact stream details and timing as soon as they’re confirmed, so you can tune in and watch it live with us. ❓G
Summer is here!Hello everyone,Community manager Secundus here again! June has arrived, and with it comes unbearable heat, long days, sleepless nights... Don't know which one is worse: that or travelling with a horse days after days in a land full of madness.Over the past month, our Discord beta testers have been diving deeper and deeper into Panda Circus and the Earth Prison. The feedback has been incredible, and we are extremely thankful! The team has been hard at work polishing, fixing, and balancing! There is still progress to be made, but each day helps us to grow Pony Island 2 into someth
Something stirs... about testing!Hello everyone!Community manager Secundus here once again. We hope April didn’t turn your world too upside down… though we can’t promise things are entirely stable just yet. Either way, we are BACK FOR MORE!May has arrived, and with it comes something a little different. Over the past few weeks, we’ve taken a step we’ve been quietly preparing for quite some time... We’ve begun beta testing Pony Island 2. Not in theory. Not behind closed doors. But with you. And let’s just say… things have been interesting.Before we dive into that, we have something new to show
The month of madness is here!¡ǝuoʎɹǝʌǝ ollǝɥ ollǝHAh, sorry about that! April can turn all of us a little upside down.Community manager Secundus here once again, reporting from a slightly less stable reality than usual. But what is a reality if not a fabric that is waiting to be melted into a green slime to be put in a jar? Ahem, we hope March treated you well! As we step into April, things have started to feel... different. Not necessarily wrong, just a little harder to keep track of.Which, now that we think about it, is perfectly on brand.With April Fools just around the corner, we thought i
Spring is approaching... and so is Pony Island 2!Hello everyone!Community manager Secundus here again, reporting for another monthly newsletter! We hope February treated you well! While winter still refuses to loosen its icy grip, something else has started to stir behind the scenes. March is that strange time of year when everything begins to wake up again. Snow melts, the days grow longer, and somewhere deep within the Earth Prison... certain systems appear to be coming back online.Coincidence? Probably. But we thought it might be a good time to show you a few more things we've been quietly
Love is in the air? Nope, it's more Pony Island 2!Hello everyone! Community manager Secundus here again. We hope you all had a wonderful January. Winter is really doing its best to freeze the team solid, but there’s no need to worry. If there’s one thing that can heat us up, it’s the loving hands, warm hugs, and intense gaze… of brand-new teasers from Pony Island 2!What, did you think I was going to say something else? Lucifer certainly wouldn’t agree…Speaking of Lucifer, this month's lovely cover art, which showcases Louey's unfortunate attempts to make a certain someone feel the "love" in th
Hello everyone!This is community manager Secundus, reporting for duty! If you have been lurking around our Discord or socials, you will probably recognize me! Besides being your friendly neighbourhood "leaker" and Sado fan, I have been working with our team to create exciting stuff for everyone in our community. I also lurk in our games' forums to see what people think about our games and what they would like to see. One of the most requested things was more updates on Steam! So...We are super excited to share the first update of Pony Island 2 and 2026! Did everyone have a great farewell to 20
Just some inevitable fixes after the Simplified Chinese localization patch: Fixed several font display issues Fix for language option resetting when rebooting the game Fix for there not being enough room to enter iamerror in a certain password field for Simplified Chinese
The Hex Hanslation Group has done it again! After delivering an expert translation for The Hex earlier this year, they have been hard at work on Pony Island. Once again they have outdone themselves - I think some of details of this localization will be a delight for Chinese speaking players. The team includes: YazawaAkiOS, LemonBomb, evilmoth, Lil_Catt, mushr00m, AlerHughes, and 8012white Once again Yazawa Akio has graced us with the beautiful cover art for the patch: https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/10418521/4530c0ae8835c2410383df37d9fe7c6c6c871430.png Unexpectedly, Yazawa Akio went
Sorry it took so long! Also, wishlist Panda Circus :)
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
INSCRYPTION. IS. HERE. Thanks for playing Pony Island and I hope you like this one too! ːstimulationː (Cover art by CarpetCrawler)
The demo is here. Oh yeah, The Hex and Pony Island are on sale too!
This one is... even less about ponies. If you like the trailer, you can... wishlist Inscryption here! 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.
