I know what Yerba Mate is, I’m even drinking some now! I even managed to start a Yerba Mate scene at my old work. And considering how many dev stations have gourds among their vinyl toy collection makes me think there were a bunch of Canadian video game developers googling Yerba Mate at some point. I imagine this game can do well with a little bit of niche online community spelunking. We’re out there!


Perhaps the developer is just a but too ahead of the curve. In a few years time the game could huge.

Also, I wonder how many people knew what spelunking was before Spelunky!


> Yerba Mate scene

How did such a scene work? Did you have get togethers to talk about your Yerba Mate experiences? Are there Yearba Mate VIPs you worship together? Did you have Yerba Mate merchandise?


His scene seems to have attracted a sardonic detractor, so I’m inclined to believe it actually is real.
