🌍 World Kindness Day 🌍 Today, we’re celebrating our incredible clients—governments, emergency services, universities, and environmental agencies—who help us bring kindness and connection to life. Together, we’re getting kids active, teaching resilience, and inspiring care for our planet through immersive digital experiences. We believe small acts of kindness are contagious. Whether it's helping a neighbor or sharing a kind word, these simple gestures inspire others to do the same. We see this in the communities we work with, where one positive action sparks a chain reaction of kindness. Thank you for partnering with us to create meaningful moments that make a difference. Here’s to many more shared acts of kindness! 🌱💙 #WorldKindnessDay #GeoAR #ConnectedCommunities With kindness, Geo AR 💙 aklcouncil

We’re back from NZGDC 2024 in Wellington! It was an absolute blast. Our team loved connecting with fellow cat lovers who share our passion for helping cats! A massive thank you to everyone who visited our stand and explored the game. Your feedback was incredibly uplifting! It’s wonderful to see how much you care about promoting responsible cat care. 😻 The stickers were a hit, and we’re glad our poster brought some smiles (even if it sparked a few chuckles about whether it was a game for cats!). And Tash’s cat ears definitely added to the fun! 🎉 It was heartening to hear your thoughts on our mission to create a brighter future for all cats through educational gaming. one of you suggested sharing the game with guidance counsellors at schools, which is a brilliant idea! We’re also considering some fun merchandise for future events—plushies or magnets, perhaps? What is your favourite type of merchandise? Please comment below. For those who don’t know, Cat Angels Triumph is a free educational game that invites players to embark on an exciting journey where their choices impact the lives of virtual cats. You’ll explore important topics like microchipping, de-sexing, and understanding animal rights, all while having fun! This game aims to inspire cat lovers to become champions of responsible pet ownership. Thanks for making NZGDC such a memorable experience. We’re excited to continue this journey together and advocate for every cat's right to a loving and safe home! 💖 #CatAngelsTriumph #NZGDC2024 #nzgda #nzgdc
