Orca Studios Helps Protect Earth’s Oceans by Donating 5% of IAPs in FISH PARADISE to Great Barrier Reef Legacy

Orca Studios and Great Barrier Reef Legacy (GBR Legacy) have announced a new partnership to fund a series of cutting-edge research projects – along with the purchase of the charity’s first vessel – through 5% of FISH PARADISE’s in-game purchases.

GBR Legacy will change the way the Great Barrier Reef is understood and protected by operating the reef’s only independent research vessel. With public, private and corporate funding, this vessel will be the Great Barrier Reef’s floating laboratory, interactive classroom, multimedia powerhouse, and an open platform for collaboration.

QUOTES

Rushad Govekar (Game Director, Orca Studios):

“Shipping Fish Paradise was the challenge of a lifetime, but we eventually made it. The team and I have learned so much since then. Thanks to player feedback, we were able to make very real improvements to the game – and we continue to do so day after day, month after month. The partnership with GBR Legacy couldn’t have come at a better time. We’re happy to help in any way we can!”

Dr. Dean Miller (Director of Science & Media, Great Barrier Reef Legacy):

“The Fish Paradise community is a welcome addition to our list of supporters here at GBR Legacy. Their support shows how unified gamers can be – and that their love of games can be a force of good for real world solutions, particularly on the Great Barrier Reef.”
