This cozy Steam Next Fest sim looks like Animal Crossing, plays like Overcooked, and finally lets me live one of my biggest dreams: serving coffee to capybaras
Should I be giving caffeine to giant rodents?

If you're looking for a much more chilled-out version of Overcooked, with just a hint of Animal Crossing, I have the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Steam Next Fest demo for you.
is the brilliantly nam𝄹ed upcoming sim from developer YarnCat Games that lets you do exactly what you'd expect with a title like that. As a capybara barista, you'll inherit a rundown coffee shop and work your way up to becoming the best cafe in a town full of other capybaras.
Right away as you startꦕ in Capybarista you're given a cafe masterclass by the old and wise Grampybara who teaches you everything you need to know about grinding 🔴coffee beans, brewing coffee, and cleaning up after customers. You're also able to decorate the place to your liking, and as you earn more money, you can upgrade your equipment and buy more tables, which will attract more capybara customers.
The ga♔meplay for this cozy sim is pretty straightforward. Similar to Overcooked, it's a lot of jumping from different stations in the cafe and hitting a button to interact with the people and equipment around you. Unlike Overcooked, there's no timer, just the usual day cycle that will take us through Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, etc. That means you can take things slow and don't have to stress about preparing orders quickly.
Clean your establishment, wash the dishes, and get ready to serve lots of customers! ☕This is it: Capybarista, our cozy game that's currently in development here at the studio!❗Want to try it out? Download the demo available on Steam!#gamedev #indiegamedev #cozygame pic.twitter.com/f2JTJYTzvp
As much as I love the intense experience of playing Overcooked with friends and family, it was nice to take my time chatting to the customers, serving them their coffee, and cleaning up after the day was done. One thing I would have l🦋oved to have experienced was the multiplayer options, which allow you to not only play online with others but also involve up to eight players via local co-op - although considering the size of my starter cafe, I have no idea ho𒅌w anyone would have fit.
Similar to games like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you can also visit other coffee shops and their owners to get inspiration for your own business. To make sure everyone stands out, Capybarista also lets you customize your character including its fur color, apron style, and out꧟fit. Each rodent that visits your cafe also has a unique look which keeps things interesting and means you can recognize the regulars.
There's still so much for me to unlock and experience in this game, but the short time 🎉I spent with the demo was e♐nough to convince me to add it to my wishlist. You can try Capybarista out for free now during - which takes place from February 5 - February 12, 2024.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team eꦰvery now and then.
