Potsdam videogame company releases new war and diplomacy game

Posted

POTSDAM -- Little Red Dog Games, a Potsdam-based videogame company, has created and is selling its war and diplomacy game “Precipice”.

The game is available for Windows PC on Steam, a game distribution service. The game retails for $11.99, and is selling at a 20% discount for first week.

Precipice is a strategy game where the last one to blink wins -- though push too hard, and the whole world may be lost, according to a press release. It spans forty years of hostilities between the United States and Soviet Union, and forces players to decide when to push their own contentious actions and when to back down from them. The game supports one or two players. In single player games, the advanced AI observes player behavior and makes assumptions about their rival’s intended strategy, and develops a plan of its own to counter. Also, it features animals in suits.

Precipice is the third commercial title from Little Red Dog Games' founders Ryan and Krystal Hewer. Ryan is an assistant professor for game design and development at SUNY Canton. Krystal is an art teacher at Colton-Pierrepont Central School.

They are joined by Meghan Catling, an associate artist who is based in Potsdam.
