Fate of the World is released!

Today, we cross the finish line. Today, Red Redemption releases Fate of the World, our new turn-based, global strategy game for PC.

If you like baby seals and long walks along the fjords of Finland (thanks, Slartibartfast!), you should probably purchase it now fateoftheworld.net.

That aside, I must say, it's a brilliant feeling to release a game, even if I know our real mission -- to fight climate change -- has hardly begun.

Many people have a cause -- money, themselves, poodles, the baby seals I mentioned earlier. Our cause is the environment. Everyone here at Red Redemption is incredibly, ridiculously passionate about saving the Earth from almost certain environmental collapse... so we made a computer game about it.

When you look at the science -- and rest assured, our scientific advisors (from Oxford!) have looked at more scientific data and analysis than you can shake a polar bear at -- climate change is already here, and it's going to get worse. With that reality, we must accept the responsibility to do something.
