Gold Bug Interactive

Fresh off the press! We are delighted to share the published version of Protection: The Board Game. We worked closely with the amazing team at InterAction to capture the aims of Results Based Protection (RBP), a dynamic methodology for humanitarian actors to support victims in zones of conflict. The game will be played by NGO and agency leaders around the world to upskill them on the basics of RBP. This is the product of countless iterations, consultations, and redesigns, but always a labor of love. Special thanks to the leadership and vision of Elisa Navarro, the kind, thoughtful, and supportive guidance of Jessica Lenz, and the incredible artistry of Naandeyé García Villegas. As you can see, this game is a work of art!

Our Co-Director heading to Games for Change, come meet us if you'll be there.

We are thrilled to announce that Gold Bug Interactive will partner with Fred Rogers Productions and PBS Kids on a forthcoming game! We are honored to contribute to an iconic brand whose values align cleanly with our own. Will share more as the project develops! #fredrogers #pbskids #games

We are thrilled to announce that our OPEN – D: Onboarding Platform for the Education of New Patients with Diabetes project was selected as a recipient of JDRF/FRDJ Canada's Mental Health and T1D Community Grant. We have partnered with researchers at McGill University to create a dynamic and interactive platform to help educate and ease the first difficult days for newly diagnosed pediatric type-1 diabetes patients. For our first phase, we will be creating a web comic to support the mental health of patients 6 - 12 years old. Stay tuned for more news as the project evolves. We aim to make a difference! #jdrf #t1d #goldbuginteractive #mcgill #type1diabetes #comics #games

We are delitghed to share that our "Wastepickers VR" project was selected as a finalist in the #FICMA Festival. Written and produced by our CEO and co-founder Elisa Navarro, this immersive experience shares the hardships and toils of informal workers who survive by sorting and recycling consumer waste on landfills. They provide an essential service, but are neglected, badly paid, work in deplorable conditions, and are often controlled by organized crime. This is a global phenomenon, and more must be done to formalize their work: #wastepickers #environment #vr #immersive #vrforgood #goldbuginteractive https://lnkd.in/eiWy7CXf :D
