In September 2022, Target Research Group conducted a national market research study of our sizzle reel with 339 boys and girls between the ages of 8 to 14 years old and an accompanying parent or guardian (Boys 54%, Girls 46%). Findings proved the game’s potential for both commercial and educational success:
— 94% of children showing interest in trying the game with two-thirds (67%) saying they are “extremely/very” interested.
— 71% of adults stating they “definitely/probably would buy it” or allow their child to buy it.
We are thrilled to announce that Habithèque holds a patent for the system and methods for AOP game play.

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 7.7 million supporters worldwide and AOP will have access to these supporters.
An Otter Planet has already garnered the interest and attention of other key players in the gaming industry. Unity Technologies, the world’s leading game engine company, prominently featured An Otter Planet on their June 8, 2022, blog (bit.ly/3mTjtmQ) about “inspiring” creators accelerating positive environmental and climate impact
We see great potential to harness the broad appeal, power, reach and joy of commercial games to fuel a blue revolution—a renaissance in social participation, and meaningful action to address the pressing global challenges of watershed protection, revitalization and education—through the eyes and adventures of our Otter protagonist.
An Otter Planet test prototype was developed to immerse players in a truly otter-like experience.
This demo allowed players to run, dive and swim freely within a coastal "sandbox" environment, emphasising movement, exploration and puzzle-solving.
Players gradually fix damage to the ecosystem as they progress through the demo, being rewarded with an ever more vibrant and colorful world to play in.
Provide the tools for each person to be more equipped to make sense of things for themselves.
We want to foster a deep connection to water across the cosmos, igniting a “Blue Revolution" on Earth Immersive 3D action-adventure game where players become Otter Guardians. Traverse breathtaking aquatic worlds, from pristine Otter Planet to endangered Alliance Planets. Harness elemental powers and build alliances with magical eco-allies.
