While filming the Shadwen trailers, we came across a number of rather interesting events. Check out our failed scenes trailer 🙂 If you’ve come across some funny things as well while playing as the stealth mom – share the clips with @ShadwenGame on Twitter! We’ll reward the best one with a Shadwen T-shirt!
We’re happy to confirm that Shadwen will launch with a level editor! Build your own explosive stealth levels with the #Shadwen Level Editor #FromTheShadows Available at launch! pic.twitter.com/rLNHwcjrCC — ShadwenGame (@ShadwenGame) February 26, 2016 The editor is the same one that we use ourselves, so it’s a very versatile tool! The editors allow you to edit existing levels, create whole new levels and share your creations through the Steam Workshop. We’ve already seen some really awesome community-made levels in the Trine games, and we hope to see lots more in Shadwen! We have a team working on creating easy-to-understand tutorials […]
Many thanks for everyone who took part! We’re stoked to see such a positive response and so many people playing the demo. 🙂 The Demo Event has now ended, but the demo is still available to download and play for all who want to try it! Check out www.shadwen.com for more information. It looks like Shadwen’s launch price is going to be $14.55! This price will be valid for about 1-2 weeks from launch depending on the platform, and the regular price will be 15% higher. Launch dates and platforms will be announced later.
Play the demo, drop the launch price! You can now try out a sneak peek demo of Shadwen for a limited time. Each playthrough helps drive down the eventual launch price of the game. So go ahead, download the demo and start playing! 🙂 Don’t forget to share your best moments with #FromTheShadows for a chance to win Shadwen & Frozenbyte related prizes! How to Participate STEP 1: Get the demo! Demo is available for free on Steam, GOG & Humble Store STEP 2: Play! Each playthrough contributes to a community score. The higher the community score, the lower […]
We’re excited to announce our new stealth IP: Shadwen! Release in 2016. Shadwen is a true stealth game where the only rule is to remain unseen. Stay hidden – or the ruthless guards will capture you on sight. Check out the very first trailer below! Shadwen, an assassin on a quest to kill the king, has a chance encounter with a little orphaned girl, Lily. She follows Shadwen on her dangerous journey, but when the ruthless guards get too close, Shadwen must take action right in front of Lily’s eyes. Will Shadwen resort to violence and let Lily witness her […]
We have updated Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power to version 1.11. This is mostly a bug fix update following the previous update that added some content and other important features, but improves “The Quest for Cake” level also, and stabilizes the SteamOS, Linux, and Mac versions a bit. Changelog below and also available in the game’s files. In addition, Steam is having their “Exploration Sale” at the moment and the games are on sale: Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power 66% off on Steam Trine 2: Complete Story 85% off on Steam Trine Enchanted Edition 85% off on Steam […]
We’ve just released a new content update for Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power! It includes a free new level as well as official support for SteamOS and Linux. The new level is a mini adventure featuring the three heroes and their (or mainly Pontius’s) desire for some food – a cake, no less! Also included are various minor fixes and improvements, such as a mid-level checkpoints for the Lost Page levels, and a fix to the Wizard’s box exploit. Changelog below and also available in the game’s files. All three Trine games are now also now on SALE from […]
We’re on Snapchat! Now is a great time to follow us if you haven’t already, because by doing that and sending us a snap, you can win yourself Steam keys for Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power. We’ll snap codes for the game every day for a week, to random people who’ve both followed us and sent us a Trine related snap. You can participate even if you have the game already – if you get a key, you can always gift it to a friend and play together. 🙂 So go ahead and add frozenbytegames on Snapchat. You can […]
Now that the official release for Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is only a few days away (August 20th!) and the Early Access period is coming to an end, we thought it’d be a cool idea to take a look at back at the last few months. For us, this has been a truly great experience. We have learned so much, and we’ve been really happy about the feedback we’ve received from the community. So thank you all for taking part in the Early Access! 🙂 You’ve helped us make this game better, and we feel super excited to […]
It’s time for part 3 in our “Day in the Life of” blog series. 🙂 This time we’ll talk about writing! Click here for part 1 (QA) and part 2 (Design). Game writing as a full-time profession is still quite rare. Here at Frozenbyte we currently have one writer, Maija, who’s been with us for over four years now. She started here by writing the stories of Trine 2 and its Goblin Menace expansion (which together form Trine 2: Complete Story). Now she’s been busy with Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power, which is currently available on Early Access on […]
If you want to try games that we haven’t released yet and happen to live or be in Finland, now might be your chance! The idea is to get feedback and some fresh perspective on our games before their official releases. This means that we invite some people over to spend a few hours at our office playing games and perhaps engaging in some friendly chatter. The playtest sessions are relatively short – so this is not a paid position nor is this a job add (if you’re looking for work, head over to our Jobs page instead!). However, those […]
