Showing Capyvarias at Paris Games Week was a great experience 🐹☢️

A family came to talk to me, and the father said his little girl loved capybaras and wanted to understand better how to advance in the game. That moment truly made my day 🤎

The Steam gods are in our favor 🙏

But the praying continues, since now the store page went back to the review queue. I have no idea why, especially since the demo doesn’t even have its own page 🤷‍♀️

A wild capybara appeared! 🐹🥼

For the new capybara scientist, I took inspiration from Professor Farnsworth.
Here is the reference and the result!

The Capyvarias theme has some lore 🐹📝

I am an expat, and my hometown is a lovely city full of capybaras.
You can find them in many parks, walking freely and completely relaxed.
I love how they are always just chilling.

Steamworks still feels like a complex puzzle, but I got Capyvarias set up in just one day this time.

It took me a full week with Celestial Conquest, so I call that progress.

Capyvarias multiverse: we started with an illustration made by the devs, went for a quick placeholder design by the artist, and finally arrived at the current version.

First time ever creating an animation in CSP.
It is a simple flag, but it adds some life to the Capyvarias game.

For halloween vibes you should check out WitchGhost!

It is developed by persinalError, and like me, they are streaming its development in Twitch.
Launching the new "Meet the Mobs" pre launch campaign for WitchGhost. Introducing the mobs and provide a little more information.

Today, The Spider. A base, early game mob that can quickly overwhelm you

I started working on a new game: Capyvarias

The reason for the change is that the artist I wanted to work with was finally available.

I love the art direction and enjoy every moment of working with her. Having a great team makes game development so much better.

In today’s stream I added controller input detection to Celestial Conquest.

A small change that makes it much easier to see what is going on while debugging controller support.
