About Frostwood Interactive
A one-man studio run by Armaan Sandhu, the studio was created in 2017 for the development of Rainswept. I’ve always been a big fan of single player games that focus on storytelling, characters, and atmosphere and the goal here is to create works with those aspects in mind and hopefully emotionally move, affect and influence people.
