love it so cute
i can make the capybara moonwalk! while pressing the move forward button push the move button opposite and the lil fren will moonwalk
So fun, can't wait for the full game!
After sprinting it ended up stopping me from being able to click on anything or leaving
same
me too, how do you fix that?
coconut doggy
ah yes my favorite point and click game....where you use the keyboard
good! you should give the main character some super powers besides sprint

10/10
I love it so much! The capybaras completely deadpan face is hilarious, the art is so charming! Also I would die for that rat <3
Capybaruh!!coffee bara!!
could just be an issue on my end, but when I start it, I can only see a pastel yellow screen? Not sure if I'm missing something, and again could just be a problem on my end
did you figure it out yet? cause, if you didn't, you just ned to click the screen! hope this helped!
yes
so cute i love it
CaPYBara
really great simple game you got there
i love it
it's so cute!
an amazing game, can't wait for more updates!
great job on the demo! it's very well done
keep up the good job! :D
I can see myself playing this 5 hours straight for all the endings, waiting for the full release!
YES
very cute.
also I already see lore developing, it looks like the rat on the poster maybe escaped and made the footprints in the blocked off ice area? anyway, looking forward to the next update.
Hmm, you may be on to something.... 🙃
A good time! The sfx were a nice touch but a bit harsh on the ears (although it didn't help that I had it up a bit too loud in the first place)
I would absolutely play a full version of this, since the version I played seems to be more of a demo. Check it out!
i finished the game and a loud noise played, wtf?
Oh gosh, sorry about that! That'll be removed in the next update! That was just put in there for memes since we were running out of time!
This was such a fun game. I love Capybaras and can't wait to see those extra endings. Everything was great! Really enjoyed it!!
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for playing our game! I hope you enjoy the update when it arrives!
very cute
An absolutely adorable game!
I agree with much of what LordL75 said, though sometime that really stood out to me where the sound effects. The noises for when the characters talked were very charming and added a lot to their personality, however the goat's were a bit harsh on my ears. Same goes for the little victory noise at the end. All the other sounds were just fine.
Overall a really great start to a game! :D
Thank you so much for the feedback! I was actually the one in charge of the animal noises, so I'm glad they were fitting for each animal! The goat noise is very loud compared to the other animal noises for sure, so I will make sure to adjust that accordingly!
Starting off, you guys have absolutely nailed the classic point and click adventure aesthetic with a great art style to boot! The mix between the pixel art background and the set pieces flow very well together! Though I get the feeling that the owl sprite is probably a WIP
Loved the music! It really fits with the almost whimsical cartoony aspect of the game. I could imagine it being played in a 80s animated cartoon about talking animals.
I got the sense of a unique personality from the characters, major props to the writer! The cute animated face portraits really helped to cement this. Some bbcode rich text effects (e.g a wave affect on the text when the goat complains and moans) would help you add a extra layer of personality to what the characters are saying (a bit like the massive text the goat has).
In some sense you were perhaps a little too faithful to classic point and clicks because half of the time I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. After I went to find food for the goat, when I clicked the hay or the trash, I got no indication that it was the food the goat wanted. Including a technical text along the lines of "You'd never eat this but you know somebody who would" after the initial description would help make what you're doing a lot clearer.
The inclusion of the feeding machine as a red herring just adds to this confusion as I spent a lot of time trying to find a way to get it to work. That said perhaps it's meant as a alternate route in a future update rather than a outright red herring.
Very small nitpick, but running doesn't actually make you faster.
Overall a really cool game with outstanding art and writing for a jam game! It will be very cool to see where you take this!
Thank you so much for trying out our game and offering such helpful advice! We will definitely take your words into consideration moving forwards! :)
How do you get the other ending I could only get the one where you escaped??
Oops! Sorry about the lack of other endings! We plan to add them in after the jam ^^
