It's an old beta easter egg :P You'll find it eventually, don't really need to do anything special ;)

In the code, it seems that it sets a variable giving you 99 of them, but nothing happened other than the announcement of the "achievement", and a little pink pony graphic on the planet...

I was hoping it was a superweapon, like the Ancient Drones on Atlantis, or the missing ingredient for the intergalactic recipe for pork-chops :) :D

Now made with Horses!!!

anyway, just colonize every planet you see, because it's a planet-bonus...

I don't think it would be ethical to shoot horses at enemy space ships :P

Somehow, I imagine that it's somewhat equivalent to the Care Bear Stare. (tm)

HAHA  :HOT:  I remember the space ponnies and the flying office buildings. If you weren't a beta tester you must think we're crazy. ;p

On shooting horses at enemies:

You never seen my graphics rewrite of a 3D missile attack/defend game I wrote 10 years back...

It was a "Castle" version, and you put horses on catapults and launched them at the enemy castle!

This is what I expected to happen when I finally found the Space Pony bonus:



...But it didn't happen, and all I got was an achievement :( (oh well)
