For the 2nd day of Christmas Calendar we have a story to tell. This tale was loosely inspired by Frozenbyte support workers’ daily chores, though all characters and events (including explosions) are purely fictional. The tale was written by AuraFB. ❄️ A Day in the Life of Support by Bob, a robot It was nine a.m., and Bob felt groggy. The computer, which he had just booted up, was some ancient model, unlike any he’d seen before, and was taking forever to start up. It wasn’t the only piece of machinery that puzzled him; The whole station was crammed full […]
🎄 Hello everybody! It is time for our annual Christmas Calendar once again! 🎄 This year we will have daily uploads on the blog, something for every day until the 25th of December. Don’t forget to check the blog often, for I heard that the elves of Frozenbyte have some surprises in store for you. Maybe even some game codes among them! 🎁 For the 1st of December, please have these beautiful wintery images of the whimsical fantasy world of Trine 4, a game that we released early October this year. Have you played it yet? If not, we highly recommend […]
It is here, the day you have all been waiting for… Finally you have a chance to win Nine Parchments game key for Steam! Instructions in the end of this post, which is also this year’s last Yuletide entry. So, how was Christmas, hopefully super relaxing? As you might have noticed we had a digital Christmas card on our social media. I hope that it is still okay to post this as Christmas already passed, but new year is just around the corner and as Xmas trees are up I think it’s still rather relevant. 😊 I hope that many […]
Welcome to the fourth entry of Frozenbyte Yuletide Calendar! 🎅 During December we have already talked about Nine Parchments, Has-Been Heroes and how to become a game designer (with Shadwen pictures). So, what about our Trine heroes, what have they been up to after the release of Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power? They have been busy making cameos to our other games, and Zoya already did a quick visit to the second Yuletide entry. More about the heroes, and also about Astral Academy below! Whole trio indeed appears in the free expansion we released for the Has-Been Heroes last […]
Time for another Yuletide Calendar entry, and remember to comment! This week’s theme comes with a small story: In the beginning of year 2017 we received an actual letter from one lovely fan from Russia (thanks a lot!). In the letter there were three questions on game design and how to become a designer. Four of our designers answered these questions and in this third Yuletide entry we are going to share half of these secrets with you as well. Enjoy. 😁 The pictures are from our stealth game, Shadwen! What should I learn for now, that could be useful […]

Frozenbyte Christmas Calendar, Day 23! What a terrible mistake I made when I used “Splot” and “coup” in the same sentence in a previous blog post. It seems that the Splots got some ideas about how to feature themselves in the calendar one more time before Christmas. Splot would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and give a present to all of you: Splot is free to download from tomorrow, December 24th, 2016 until January 6th, 2017! Pick your copy from App Store and have fun with Splot during the Holidays. 🙂 Splot is free from December 24th, […]
Frozenbyte Christmas Calendar, Day 22! It’s almost Christmas already. Today we will take a closer look at what some of the Frozenbyte employees are going to do during the holidays. I asked some questions from a QA-person, a level designer, an artist, an IT-person and a coder. One of the sentences that we have used a lot in support lately has been that “our coders are super busy at the moment”, you can clearly see that from the answers. 😉 What will you do during the holidays? Will you play a lot of video games or will you take a […]
Frozenbyte Christmas Calendar, Day 21! Can we ignore the fact that I have two Trine images in a row in which we have all three heroes present. I had to swap two days with each other and this was the result. But please give me points for the connection that I tried to create in the yesterday’s post. I said that the heroes are going to need their skills today, and as you can see from the image below, they’re definitely going too need all the tricks that they have stored up in their sleeves. How many of you have […]
