An Otter Planet Partners with Oceana and Receives Patent for Innovative Gameplay!

“An Otter Planet“ (AOP) is a boundary-pushing, environmentally themed, strategy-based video game scheduled for commercial release in 2025. The goal of AOP is to harness the extraordinary cultural influence and reach of gaming to ignite awareness of the global water crisis and climate change; to open dialogue between and among millions of players and scientists; and to directly connect them with activists and organizations at the leading edge of water revitalization, conservation, and stewardship. We are thrilled to announce that Habithèque now holds a patent for the system and methods for An Otter Planet’s innovative game play.

Working toward realizing AOP’s goal of directly supporting innovative, smart, and sustainable initiatives to protect and revitalize water in our world, we have also aligned with Oceana as our conservation partner. With offices in North America, Central America, South America, Europe and Asia, Oceana is the world’s largest international advocacy organization focused solely on ocean conservation. AOP’s alliance with Oceana is grounded in the collective mission to fuel meaningful action to address the pressing global challenges around water. Oceana has a base of over 8.8 million supporters worldwide, and AOP will have access to these supporters. 

 Our industry partners have validated AOP’s huge potential to tap into the massive, ever-growing international game market, now valued at more than $300 billion. Education-focused distribution partners such as BrainPOP are also excited to be a part of our AOP endeavor, which imaginatively combines serious fun with serious impact. Post commercial launch, a free-to-play off-shoot of AOP will launch on BrainPOP’s GameUP—a cross-curricular educational games portal serving students and teachers, grades K-12, from across 8,000 U.S. school districts.

An Otter Planet has also captured the imagination and endorsement of key industry players like Unity, the world’s leading game engine company. Unity prominently featured the game on their June 8, 2022, blog (https://bit.ly/3mTjtmQ) about inspiring creators who are accelerating positive environmental and climate impact.
