Nathan Vella is co-founder and art director at independent developer Capybara Games Inc. Based out of Toronto, Canada, Capybara spent the first 3 years of it's existence making some pretty radical/gnarly mobile games including IGF Mobile 2008 Best Game winner Critter Crunch, and IGN Wireless' Best Fighting Game 2007 Pillowfight.
Capybara is now developing ultra-secret titles for Nintendo DS, Playstation Network and Wiiware.
Nathan enjoys street fighter, tribes 1, meteos, you probably wont make it, meat boy, mirrors edge, and so on. He also enjoys long walks on the beach.
Thanks for the great summary Monsieur Diamante - I'm feeling really bad that i missed what seems to have been a really special indie gaming event sadface
Yah, Toronto is cooler. Maybe one of the coolest. The comment about Toronto not really making a blip is hilarious considering the unbelievably great games that Toronto indies have developed...
