You can never have enough capybaras. At least that's our opinion! Luckily, the developers at Kitten Cup Studio have the same opinion, and they just announced (and revealed a trailer) for their new upcoming game, Capy Castaway. In Capy Castaway, "Embark on a whimsical adventure with a capybara pup and a clever crow as they set off to find their way home! Sniff, dig, and explore a vibrant world brimming with wonder, challenges, and heartwarming friendships at every turn." The pairing of Capy and Crow looks to be a creativity-filled duo that encourages the player to explore with childlike wonder the possibilities around them. Plus it's by the same developers of "Pekoe" AND features the composer who did the music in "A Short Hike"?! We can't wait to see more! 

The trailer was revealed as part of the Wholesome Snack: The Game Awards 2024 Presentation

Out of nowhere, your ship starts to sputter. Your oil is low, your radiation analyzer and tomfoolery modules are on the fritz, and you have to make a quick decision. Luckily, you look on your intergalactic map to see that Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop is within landing distance. You’re able to touch down safely on the platform and are met by a four-eyed “fox where it counts”, who leads you into a coffee shop before getting to work on your ship in need. That’s where you come in, playing that fox guy and helping customers in need so that you can pay R.E.N.T. to your employer before he murders you for being too much of a financial liability. Oh, and what a joy this arrangement is, as Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop is an employment contract I’d sign again and again.

Ahh the joys of arcades. Flashing lights, games of skill and chance, competitive playfulness, and of course, tickets and prizes. With all this goodness going for it, there have been a bevy of arcade-y games released over the years. In fact, arcades are often chock full of virtual machines. Dungeon Clawler takes that formula and merges a loved arcade game with a loved genre, combining a dungeon crawler roguelite with a claw machine. Yes, it is as fun as it sounds.

Your mousey crew lands on Aurania, a land of mystery and potential. What follows is an epic turn-based adventure filled with twists and turns, lots of interpersonal and faction-crossing drama, and plenty of combat. Wargroove 2 follows the events in Aurania 3 years after Queen Mercia and her allies defeated the ancient adversaries and restored peace to Aurania. Now, this team of explorers and researchers (with some formidable fighting skills) seems keen on unearthing forbidden tech that could have catastrophic consequences. Filled with beautiful sprites, luscious maps, and engaging cutscenes, Wargroove 2 turned out to be a great time for pixel-lovers and turn-based aficionados alike.

I’ve been following Fruitbus for a while, which piqued my interest with its quirky animal characters, boppy sound design, and charming visual style. Since I played the demo, the developer Krillbite has refined the concept they introduced, which has you driving around a set of islands, chopping and cooking up food recipes for people around the various areas using fruits, veggies, and other foodstuffs that you acquire by gathering them through various means as you explore. It’s a simple concept with a few twists and bugs to navigate around along the way, but overall I truly enjoyed my time with Fruitbus and its cast of characters.

There are plenty of bullet hells out there, but none that you can team up with friends for a 1-4 roguelite battle against foes as a Capybara…until now! Extremely Powerful Capybaras is a frantic roguelite that was great for a few entertaining gaming sessions with friends, but did become a bit worn after a while, with a difficulty curve that seems to hit a few walls along the way. There are some intriguing combos of abilities that are able to be used to take down foes in droves, and the capybaras themselves are a highlight of the experience.

Dinosaurs can be considered many things: fascinating, prehistoric, even frightening! To some though, there’s nothing cuter than a dino. That’s obviously how the development team behind Amber Isle, Ambertail Games, feels about them, because they’ve gone out and released a game that features a plethora of precious “paleofolk” to entice to your island through the creation of a burgeoning shopping empire and a blossoming town, appropriately named “Amber Isle.” Suffice it to say but if you’re thinking that sounds a lot like Animal Crossing but with dinosaurs, you’re correct. But also, you’re probably not disappointed. I sure wasn’t, and I have so far enjoyed a lot of my time with the game.
