We are Frozenbyte, a game development company mainly known from our Trine series. Our latest addition to the series did not go as expected, and we had to make quick turns or face extinction. Now we are trying to make a comeback with Shadwen, which is a completely new type of game for us.
-Kai Tuovinen
Their new game is called Shadwen. It's a stealth assassination game that prioritizes freedom of movement and has some time manipulation elements. The demo is availible for download for the next 2 days. The higher the scores of the players in the demo, the lower the price of the game.
Some highlights from their AMA:
We failed miserably with the communication, delivery and everything else regarding Trine 3.
We intended to tell everyone that our launch price, $21.99, was supposed to reflect that the game was first part of a $60 Trilogy. But as said, there's no excuses from our side and we are deeply sorry for failing.
As for now, we must try to make a comeback. Giving up since so many people hates us seems just wrong.-Lauri Hyvarinen
Will Trine 3 still get any love? Would love to see more content for it. :)
-Father33We will continue to update the game, and hopefully some day we are able to publish also more content to it. We added >one small level in November and the user-created content has been flowing in constantly.

They weren't "trine" very hard during development
