We’ve been developing, testing, designing and perfecting this game for quite some time now. So let us introduce you to Boreal Blade, a team-based melee fighting game with a focus on PvP combat that combines reactionary and tactical gameplay, and allows you to alternate attacks and to develop a unique fighting style. https://youtu.be/5SmZqbvZlb0 Steam Beta Boreal Blade will be making its way to PC during 2019, but all interested players are welcome to join the Steam beta which is available now!

- Have You Played Shadowgrounds? - 18 October 2018
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. For a developer who can’t seem to get enough of wizards and weird physics puzzles , you might be surprised that Frozenbyte’s first game wasn’t anything of the sort. Indeed, the Finnish studio best known for puzzler series Trine and more recent fantasy co-op shenanigans Nine Parchments cut their teeth on a sci-fi, top-down shooter called Shadowgrounds .

- Indie Gala offers indie games... and Mass Effect 2 - 18 April 2013
Indie Gala has launched a campaign to help the Vancouver game development community, and it has enlisted help from some Canadian friends. The name-your-own price game bundle is offering seven games, including Mass Effect 2 from Alberta-based BioWare and Shank 2 from Vancouver's own Klei Enterainment. Paying the bare minimum of a penny on the Indie Gala will get you Rebuild. If you're slightly less of a cheapskate, you can pay $1 or more to get Kill Fun Yeah!, Shadowgrounds , and Zombie Driver HD . Finally, if you pay more than the average (approximately $6, as of the time of writing), you'll also net Gimbal, Shank 2, Mass Effect 2, and DLC for Zombie Driver. Two more mystery games will be unveiled next week: one for the lower tier, and one for the higher tier. Both will be unlocked if you've already paid. Most of the games activate on Steam or Desura, while ME2 activates on Origin. Reve…
