After we released the editor for Trine Enchanted Edition and Trine 2: Complete Story a while ago, we’ve been seeing a lot of great community made maps on the Steam Workshop, which is awesome! All the maps so far are on the Trine 2 Workshop, and there’s a total of 10 maps that have been made public. We’ve played through almost all of them and I have to give a thumbs up to everyone who’s creating maps – they’re all great new experiences to play through. It seems that a lot of the user-generated maps are very challenging, and […]

You read correctly! We’re finally releasing our Frozenbyte Editor for both of the Trine games. As we did with Trine Enchanted Edition, this first editor release is a public BETA, and will be behind a password. The reason we’ve held off releasing the editor to the public before has been quite simple. It’s pretty difficult to use if you don’t know what you’re doing, and there’s *very* little documentation or tooltips. So did we make an easy-to-use version for everyone to enjoy? The answer to that is…not really 🙂 Instead we’ve opened a wiki page at www.frozenbyte.com/wiki and provided some […]
