Red Redemption announces the release of Fate of the World: Tipping Point, an updated and rebalanced edition of Fate of the World, their global strategy game for Windows and OS X. The game is available via digital distribution on the Fate of the World Website and Steam, with Steam offering a 20% discount between now and October 6th. There's also a free automatic update on Steam for owners of the original. Here's a bit on the game:

This next entry into Red Redemption’s Fate of the World series is a hardcore strategy game that puts players in hypothetical situations within a realistic world, with threatening scenarios based on the latest science and modeling technologies covering the next two centuries. Players must balance economic, political and environmental needs in order to save the world (or destroy it).

The game’s engine recreates the incredibly complicated interactions and unanticipated consequences caused as players make governmental policy changes to address major tipping points (such as the collapse of the Antarctic ice shelf). As global crises spread, players have to decide what is worth saving and what is an acceptable sacrifice.
