Sadly we were a bit too busy and our Support team also got hit by a flu. This made the Monthly Report to be a little late for April… but it’s here now! Yay! While Finland is getting closer to summer with truly hilarious weather (virally proven here), we are working to bring you some news fairly soon. What could it be? 😉 Otherwise work has proceeded quite peacefully, and yes we have still at least one patch coming to Has-Been Heroes. Look forward to it! We have also filled some of the Has-Been Heroes Gamepedia with wonderful volunteers (thanks!). […]
As the title says, our March was pretty much filled with Has-Been Heroes. I don’t know if you heard, but the game is now released worldwide. We have received a lot of feedback about the game, most of it has-been good. See what I did there? 😉 From below you can find a couple of pictures that are great choices for a desktop image! Remember to click them for a bigger view. We had a great launch party past Friday and food was of course an important part of the festivities. I’m getting hungry just thinking about the menu we […]
Only one week left before Has-Been Heroes is released. Who else is excited? Bet we are! At the office our Marketing team is working hard with the last details, and we, the Support team have been trying hard to learn all the tricks so that we can give you guys great advise! I for example have gotten quite good at dying, I have discovered numerous ways to do this. But enough about that, you might have also noticed that we introduced six members of the Has-Been Heroes team in the past weeks on our social media channels… now they are […]
February came and went, how is it possible that it has only 2 or 3 days less than other months, but still it feels like a week shorter! Or maybe once again we have had so much stuff going on here at the office that time just flew out of the window. There hasn’t been anything as major going on in February as we didn’t have any big announcements this month, but still a lot happened here as summarised below. 🙂 Who wouldn’t want to start with food? The hearts are bread buns! You know the saying “an army marches […]
We were really happy with the amount of feedback we received regarding our Christmas calendar. So thank you all! And it’s why we decided that this year we’re going to be writing a monthly blog post telling you what’s going on here at Frozenbyte. We’ll be calling these Monthly Reports! Pretty creative, right? Sadly, we can’t list everything as that would probably be a long (and maybe even a bit dull) list. But let’s get to the point: what were we up to last month? 🙂 January was actually quite a busy month here at our office. The biggest thing […]
A few weeks ago we announced our new game Has-Been Heroes, a game of strategy and action with a roguelike twist coming in March 2017 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. This time we have a bit to share about the game’s story, but also note that pre-orders are available via GameStop! 🙂 Click the picture for a full sized wallpaper! Our legendary band of heroes were once celebrated throughout the kingdom because of their heroic deeds. Unfortunately they were too efficient with all the dragon slaying and prince rescuing, this caused them to run out of […]
Woop woop! We’re leaving to gamescom on our #Hypevan on Sunday. Hopefully the van and we survive the road trip from Finland to Germany (…and back) You can track our progress with this cool tracking system: If you spot our #Hypevan anywhere, take a picture and share it with @Frozenbyte on Twitter, frozenbytegames on Instagram or Frozenbyte on Facebook! We’ll reward the eagle-eyed! 🙂
This year we’ve decided to attend gamescom in Germany to announce a new game! Typically we’d be flying there like any other video game event, but deciding to get a booth changes things a bit… After weighing our options, we came up with a brilliant plan – why not drive there with our company van?! This is what we started out with: It needed some love, so here’s the progress after a bit of painting last weekend: Still needs some more tuning though, perhaps some bigger flames on the side? What would you like to see on our #HypeVan? Stay […]
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!
Shadwen is an assassin on a quest to kill the new King of Rivendon. You play as the titular killer as she makes her way through the night-time streets of a peacefully sleeping town. You must decide if you want to trek through town killing the patrolling Guards, or are you avoiding them in order to make your way peacefully. You also encounter Lily, a bright young orphan, who must join you on your quest. The relationship between the two of you will be decided by your actions: will she see you kill? In this series, we’ve showcase different styles […]
In Shadwen, you play the titular assassin, and she is on a quest to kill the King. Sneaking your way to the castle, you need to choose if you intend to kill all the Guards in your way, or if you’ll deviously distract them so you can pass them without complications. During your journey you encounter Lily, a bright young orphan, and she’ll join your quest, blithely unaware of your true intentions until she witnesses your murderous ways, when your relationship with her must change. In the second part of this short series, we showcase different ways to play Shadwen. […]
In Shadwen, you play the titular assassin on a quest to kill King Gwydion. To get through Rivendon Town and Rivendon Castle to him, you need to choose if you intend to kill all the Guards in your way, or if you’ll deviously distract them to allow you to get by unnoticed. You are not traveling alone: Lily, a bright young orphan, is with you, and your relationship with her depends on what sort of impression you give her. Will she witness you murder the Guards, or will the two of you pass through the night-time shadows of Rivendon like […]
