When he sees a dog fall from the stars, then, he takes it as an omen. Only a force from beyond the earth could possibly tip the balance.Ībram Krupin, leader of a resistance cell, knows this. Though resistance movements have emerged, the Soviets still stand supreme as rulers of the globe. So when Stalin rolled into Paris, the resulting flare-up of global conflict left little more than smoking ash heaps where America and Great Britain had been. But the new energy sources they discovered lit a fire under the Russian war machine. The tide of Soviet power washing across the face of the Earth could possibly have been turned back at various stages of history. As historically inaccurate as that sounds, things get even more hilariously histrionic in the game’s official plot description. Since that time the pup has become something of a folk hero for space geeks and dog lovers alike, and now, thanks to Minicore Studios, Laika has her very own videogame.ĭescribed as an episodic, “2D action platformer,” Laika Believes: The Sun At Night pits Laika against the Soviet war machine.
On board the vehicle was a single passenger, a stray dog plucked from the streets of Moscow and known to her handlers as “Laika.” Unfortunately for our plucky canine hero, the USSR had yet to develop the technology to land a spacecraft after blasting it into space, so poor little Laika died in the icy void that surrounds our planet. On November 3, 1957, scientists from the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik 2 spacecraft. Laika has been dead for more than half a century, but that won’t stop her from gnawing through Stalin’s plans for world domination like so many old tennis shoes.
