Happy Holidays card from Capy, illustrated by the studio’s Nick “Qiqo” Stephan and Kelly Smith. Our page’s resized version doesn’t do it justice, so click for the larger version!
Those of you who are fans of Capy — as you all should be — will recognize the developer’s adorable blue mascots, a couple characters from Clash of Heroes (one of 2009’s best DS games), Critter Crunch’s Biggs, Super Shove It’s Joe, and Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP’s hero.
Capy’s poised for big things in 2011, what with S:S&S (iPad/iPhone) and Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes HD (XBLA/PSN) on the way. It also has a WiiWare project in the works called Heartbeat, which will be “a dot-matrix musical odyssey about love and robots”!
[Update: The studio also posted a rad holiday pixelart wallpaper, complete with an animated version!]

tags / capybara / christmas / card / qiqo / kelly smith / ecMight & Magic: Clash of Heroes figures, cards, marbles, and history booklet?! All in this Spanish commercial!
I’m not certain if this odd interpretation of the DS game’s addictive puzzle mechanics will translate well to whatever’s going on in this marble/card/figure setup, but it’s nice that Ubisoft is expanding the brand, not just with an HD remake for consoles but with physical toys/games, too!
Nathan Vella, president of Clash of Heroes developer Capy, agrees: “Great to see Ubi is pushing our concept out there.” Hopefully, the publisher will reveal more details on where it will sell the toys and which figures it will manufacture soon. The commercial suggests that fans in Spain will be able to buy bundles with one or four figures/marbles/cards each.
Another interesting point about the commercial is the new CG animation; it’s very different from the U.S. trailer Ubisoft made using just artwork pulled from the game. Barcelona-based ad firms Pistacchio and Kotoc created a shorter version of the spot without the toys, possibly for the game itself. I wonder if Clash of Heroes DS commercials will begin airing in Spain soon?
