Hard to have that much autism on it.
The ponies rejected cutie marks. One of the young ones got a cutie mark and was killed. It cursed to town. Who or what cursed them to their dark fate? Who knows, it's the Everfree forest after all, it could be any dark forces residing there.
I kinda like it vague and unexplored that way, leaving it to imagination, let the Everfree be a little more of a cosmic horror.
Still super neat game, up there as one of the best short pony games for me!
