Production
Director Samuel Tourneux and producers David Michel and Zoé Carrera Allaix first began discussing the project in 2016. The film was screened to distributors at Cannes Film Festival in May 2019 under the working title Around the World. Tourneux explained at Cannes that, while a 3D-CGI film, he wanted to combine it with 2D visual effects, such as water and smoke, to give it a distinctive style from other animated films. Tourneux also noted that he wanted to combine steampunk elements with an animal world built by animals, and as such the animals in the film have managed to build machines out of materials such as wood, leaves, shells, rocks and sand.
Over 17,000 drawings were made for the storyboard, of which 9,300 were used in the final version.

= Critical reception
=Olivier Bachelard, writing for Abus de Ciné, gave the film three out of five stars, praising the animation style and 2D elements, but criticised the animal adaptations of human society (as such using clams as currency) as uninventive. Leslie Felperin of The Guardian also gave the film three out of five stars, calling it "modest" and adding "it's hard to hate on this gentle, goofy interpretation, populated by simply designed animal characters with exaggerated features."
