Frozenbyte, Inc. (natively Frozenbyte Oy) is a Finnish video game developer founded in 2001 and based in Helsinki.[2] As of December 2020[update], it had approximately 130 employees. Frozenbyte's first commercial game was Shadowgrounds for Microsoft Windows. Both Shadowgrounds and its follow-up Shadowgrounds: Survivor were released for Linux in 2009, ported by IGIOS and published by Linux Game Publishing. They and all their later games use an engine that has been known internally as Storm3D, originally by Finnish programmer Sebastian Aaltonen.[3][4][5]
A Humble Indie Bundle sale started on 12 April 2011, and featured five games from Frozenbyte, including Trine, Shadowgrounds, and Shadowgrounds: Survivor, for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. It also contained an executable version along with source code for an unfinished game, Jack Claw, and a pre-order for their upcoming game, Splot [Wikidata].[8] As of August 2021, Splot has still to be published, and buyer's libraries on Humble Bundle say "There are no full release builds planned of Splot for Windows, Mac, and Linux".[citation needed]
On 4 December 2015, the company announced Shadwen, a stealth game where time moves only when the player moves.[9]
On 28 May 2019, the company announced a new upcoming game Starbase, a sci-fiMMO that was allegedly in development in secret for five years prior.[10]
