We will also donate 15% of our net profits to WDC to support their conservation work.*
Who is WDC?
WDC, Whale and Dolphin conservation is the leading global charity dedicated to the protection and conservation of whales and dolphins.
Their expert-led teams in the UK, Europe, the Americas, and Australasia work across the whole spectrum of threats, from climate breakdown to accidental entanglements in fishing gear. They bring together, and work hand-in-hand with, businesses, philanthropists, scientists, NGOs, governments and grassroots communities to find solutions to the problems faced by whales and dolphins.
Their aim is to reverse the global decline in whale and dolphin populations by creating safe seas for these majestic creatures.
What WDC has been doing so far
WDC have been working across the globe to protect whales, dolphins and porpoises from dying in fishing gear:
They’re collaborating with creel fishers in Scotland to trial new types of fishing gear to reduce entanglements of humpback and minke whales.
They’re working with colleagues and partner organisations in the Central Baltic Sea to develop a recovery plan for a critically endangered group of Baltic harbour porpoises.
On the west coast of the United States, critically endangered North Atlantic right whales are facing extinction. Entanglement is a massive threat to their survival, and WDC have been working with fishers to trial alternative gear types.
In Hong Kong WDC have been supporting local community efforts and working with fishers to save the remaining 200 Indo-Pacific finless porpoises from extinction due to bycatch.
These projects are saving lives, and they are powered by inspiring people working together for the ocean.

Hey friends! It’s been a while since the last update, hope you all are doing amazing.
The adventures of Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara are not over yet and after some months of work we’re very happy to show you what we have in store next for all those who enjoyed this frenetic tropical journey:
Undigital Atelier x Chibig collab
This team was responsible for the Koa and Napopo figures that many of you have in your homes, but after the launch of the game, their atelier has been smoking with new ideas.
The standard edition includes a color figure of Koa and Napopo and a Nintendo Switch code for Summer in Mara on this physical cartridge in the style of classic Nintendo games. The collector's edition includes the color figure, the game code with the physical cartridge and the limited edition Summer in Mara artbook. This edition is limited to 50 units.
The pre-sale will be open from today until June 3, with shipments starting in mid-June. You can get your hands on either version at the Undigital Atelier website.
It's still spring, but with Koa you can always feel the excitement of summer - Take care!
KOA JOINS THE PIRATES VS NINJAS FEST!

Steam Pirates vs. Ninjas Fest attempts to answer the age-old playground question: who would win in a fight, a pirate or a ninja?
In this game you won't find ninjas (although Koa jumps and moves as agile as any of them would), but with your help she can defeat any pirate, even the mischievous 5 who have sown chaos in the city of Qälis and other islands.

Summer event season ends with Tokyo Game Show 2023
Dear friends of adventures in the waters of Mara! How are you?
Summer is about to end and this is a summary of Koa's adventures since launching:
Gamescom (Köln, Germany)
Do you know how massive this event is? We couldn't imagine it!
It was the first time we went to such a big video game event and it was an absolutely exhausting experience but impossible to forget.
We had the chance to talk to so many gamedevs, publishers, editors and of course people who love indie games!
We were so proud that Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara had its little space among giants of the videogame industry and that so many people wanted to play it or tell us that they had enjoyed it a lot because they already knew it and had played it.
IndieDevDay (Barcelona, Spain)
This new edition was even more special than last year's, because one of the biggest events in our country changed its location to a bigger venue and that means... more people!
The experience was even better and we could enjoy very interesting professional talks and we could also try some very talented Spanish games.
On our side, partly because of the ideas inspired by other games at Gamescom, we decided to take our booth to a new level and decorate it with the theme of each game (Koa and Mika) as well as preparing special activities for the attendees so they wouldn't stop having fun for a moment.
Tokyo Games Show (Tokyo, Japan)
We almost can't believe we're writing this, because by doing this review we're getting a glimpse of what an amazing year we're living.
That's right! Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara is going to be at the Tokyo Games Show starting tomorrow thanks to our publisher for the Asian region, Pikii.
This is half-secret, but someone has mentioned something about some Koa pai pai! I'd go check it out just in case.
While we're sorry we can't be there from Chibig, we know that our friends at Pikii and our colleagues at Talpa Games and Undercoders, co-producers of Koa and The Five Pirates of Mara, will take good care of Koa and give you the warmest of greetings.
Mara Collection
This is a reminder for true fans of the world of Mara but also those who arrive for the first time: the Mara Collection is now available!
Summer in Mara + Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara in an adventure to go into the heart of this universe but also to live the best adventures among its islands.
Finally we also want to thank you here (never enough, right?) for the incredible support Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara has received at launch and even now two months later.
We knew that many of you wanted to continue Koa's adventures as much as we did, but that the platform genre might also be a bit too different. And yet you have supported it with everything!
Once again, thank you for being part of and helping to build the Chibig game universe.
