Marshall: We were walking back from class on campus one day and Olivia just kind of threw the idea out there. Q: Way in the beginning, what was it that inspired you guys to make To The Rescue?

RELATED: To The Rescue! Lets Players Save Virtual Dogs While Supporting The Petfinder Foundation The interview has been edited for clarity and brevity. Dunlap and Marshall spoke to Game Rant about To The Rescue!, their life as a couple and co-developers, and what inspired their dog shelter simulator. Little Rock Games co-founders Olivia Dunlap and Tanner Marshall put a lot of research into the simulator to respectably show some of the real-life struggles shelters go through, such as euthanasia (though gamers have an option to opt-out of engaging with that mechanic if they want). Features include unique dogs with different generated traits, getting them adopted, upgrading the shelter, and working hard to keep its doors open.Ī big factor of what makes this indie game stand out from others is that 20 percent of the profits Little Rock Games gets out of all To The Rescue! sales go to a real-world charity, the Petfinder Foundation.

Now, it has created its first digital game: To The Rescue! The game, coming to PC, Mac, and Nintendo Switch, is a simulation of overseeing a dog shelter. Little Rock Games has created card games such as Galactic Scoundrels and Honor Bound, and board games such as Lineage: 1434.
