We are making Capyvarias with Vue.js and Electron instead of a game engine.

It might sound unusual, but it lets us use what we already know from our web development background 🐹💻

Me two weeks ago to our artist:
Do not worry, Capyvarias is hosted on Cloudflare. If something goes wrong, half the internet will be down anyway.

Me today:
So… maybe do not reload Capyvarias right now. Half the internet has been down since lunch 💀

Capyvarias has a unique mix: cute capybaras in a destroyed world ☢️🐹

It is always a balance between keeping things adorable and reminding players there is a story of survival underneath it all.

Cute capybaras, yes, but some will face hard times rebuilding civilization 🤎

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!
