It’s been a busy and exciting few weeks here. 😁 We’ve shared some great news *wink *wink, received wonderful feedback and announced future endeavors and plans… and while all this went on, one of our Frozenbytees started his @Frozenbyte Instagram Takeover and shared us a slice of his life beyond work. And as Ossi tells you in his posts and stories, for finding serenity and creativity is unique to us all and can differ immensely from person to person. It’s somewhat a ‘personal process’, forming from the person’s own thoughts and feelings and held in a place with familiarity and […]
Winter is ‘nearly’ here and the leaves are getting more colorful by the day. Regardless the cold breezes and the imminent snow fall, it truly is a very colorful season. So, be ready for winter and snow, and get ready for Halloween (which is actually in two weeks).😊 It’s time to move on with our Instagram takeover and to our next Frozenbytee and her @Frozenbyte experience. This time we had the pleasure to follow one of our level artist’s week and her ‘notorious’ lifestyle. She also mentioned, it is not always fun and games here, you have to constantly be […]
It is time for our second @Frozenbyte Instagram takeover, and it’s a doozy. One of our Frozenbytees visited the Game UX Summit in Vancouver last week, and shared us some great pictures and stories from there. She also gave us a small inside look on what she does and what goes on designing a working UX. According to her, User Experience (UX) design is not an easy field to explain, and many people still assume that it only includes game menus. However, the subject is much vaster and more complex, since it encompasses the ‘entire’ user journey, and the field […]
One of our Frozenbytees, or employees, took over our Instagram account @Frozenbyte for ten days, and the pictures she shared were fun and adorable! She gave our viewers and us a glimpse of her work, what she likes to do on her free time, and the love she feels for Disney, cats, and badgers. So, please head to our Instagram to see what happened, or see a recap of it below. Also remember to follow us to see what’s up next. We got big plans ahead and more takeovers to come. 😉 Here’s the recap!
These lovely crochet wizards were made by one of our designers! As seen on Twitter and Facebook, our students, while adventuring amongst monsters and caves, have had some thoughtful and sometimes very insightful conversations. They’ve told stories about flowerbeds and peacocks, blushing and spell books, and even suggested methods on how to get friends. If you missed the conversations, or just seen a few during your own adventures, here is a few. Enjoy! These and the rest of the videos can be found on our Facebook playlist, or on Twitter. So, did you learn something new? Or found a favorite video? […]
“It seemed like a perfect time to focus on finding new accessories.” – The Narrator The students of the Astral Academy are not after only their school’s missing spell parchments, but there are other fascinating things to be found out there in the great wide yonder. Hats There are chests hidden all across the perilous journey, and while some are sadly empty, others contain fashionable pieces of millinery: hats! Each student has their own hat, but they find stranger and more wondrous hats as their quest progresses. Playing on a harder difficulty allows you to find more interesting, rarer hats, […]
“This is Fire, this is Ice This is Death, this is Life This is Lightning, this is Steam And this is all that’s in-between” – The Principles of Magic for Elementary School Levels by Professor Butternut Nine Parchments is all about runaway students from the Astral Academy going after missing magic parchments on their own, so here we take a closer look at what kind of magic we have in question. The spells cast by the students, as well as the spells they find out in the wilderness, fall into seven categories: six kinds of elemental spells; and non-elemental spells, […]
Amadeus the Wizard “By my trousers, I must flee!” – Amadeus the Wizard Favourite spell: Amadeus’s Box While the box is no fireball, Amadeus is fond of his long-time companion. The box can be used as a counterweight, a weapon, and sometimes a mild annoyance to adventuring companions. Amadeus the Wizard is a long-time student of the Astral Academy where many years ago he was abducted by a magical artefact, Trine, in order to save the kingdom from an undead hostile takeover. His companions Pontius the Knight and Zoya the Thief may have helped a little bit there. Amadeus has […]
Prince Selius Heatherwood “You’d best keep your guard around me.” – Prince Selius Favourite spell: Piercing Shadow The spell is as intense as the Prince’s dark gaze. Prince Selius has been stumbled upon by his fellow students in the underground quarters of the Astral Academy, and joins their suspicious hunt for the Nine Parchments. The fact that the Prince has been locked up in the dungeons by the wizards for some reason may or not be cause for alarm for his fellow travelers. He certainly does have interesting moods, each more sinister than the previous one. Prince Selius has an […]
