[h2]Hello Animal Lovers! 🤝[/h2]

[h3]We are thrilled to announce our exciting initiative to support the WWF Poland during Animal Week on Steam, happening from October 3 to October 10, 2024. ❤️[/h3]



With great pleasure we would like to support real animals around the world that's why we decided to donate a portion of our proceeds from our popular animal-themed games, with the donation amount directly tied to the peak number of players during this special week. 🤩

[h3]YOU PLAYERS 🫵 have an impact on the amount we will donate! 👀[/h3]

[h3]Let's explain how it works 🧐[/h3]
During Animal Week, we invite you to dive into our engaging titles: Animal Shelter, Pets Hotel, Pet Shop Simulator, My Horse: Bonded Spirits, and Zoo Simulator.

[h3]We will be summing the peak number of players across these games (from October 3 to October 10, 2024), and for the highest player peak recorded at this time for each, we will donate $1 to WWF Poland 👇[/h3]
Example Calculation:
Peak players for Animal Shelter: 2523
Peak players for Pets Hotel: 1475
Peak players for Pet Shop Simulator: 2221
Peak players for My Horse: Bonded Spirits: 1752
Peak players for Zoo Simulator: 2658
Total example donation: $10 629

We have always believed in using our games for the good of animals around the world. In the past, we've supported animal shelters around the globe, and now we are eager to extend our impact by contributing to wildlife conservation through WWF Poland during Animal Week on Steam.
