After about two years in development so far, we're delighted to open pre-orders for Frozen Synapse!
If you pre-order now, you'll get to play the early beta that's shown in the video above. There are still a lot of rough edges and bugs to chase down, but we've been playing it a lot recently and having fun with our testers.
You'll get a free, full copy of the game if you pre-order now: this is to make sure that everyone is able to get a game straight away and gets the maximum fun out of the early beta.
In the near future, we'll be putting out an update with some quick fixes very soon and then going back to work on polishing this version, as well as starting to get in some more of the community stuff we want to have in there.
We have a preview from the almighty Rockpapershotgun up now! Mr Kieron Gillen, who is a very nice man (not just because he wrote nice things about us, mind) wrote it. There are too many nice things to quote right now.
There's a nice preview at Resolution over here, written Mr Lewis Denby who is a very nice man (not just because he wrote nice things about us either).
Also, we'll be going over to Gamespot later this week, so watch out for that one.
We've had a huge amount of interest in pre-ordering the game, which has been amazing: thanks for everything so far and we'll keep you updated with all you need to know.
CLICK HERE TO PRE-ORDER!
Finally! Well done on getting this far!
Do everyone who is buying this, log onto the IRC channel and have a chat (and insult whomever you're playing against)
Yep, it's irc.maxgaming.net #mode7games if you want to use your own client. There's an in-game client as well, though.
"We have a preview from the almighty Rockpapershotgun and one from Eurogamer coming out later in the day"
And one from Resolution Mag already up! Resolution-magazine.co.uk
(Just thought I'd drop that in there, y'know?) ;-)

Sorry Lewis! I did actually mean to mention you, I am a bad person. Spankings.
OK, everyone go to Resolution right now - do it RIGHT NOW. Then come back and pre-order!
awesome just awesome
Thanks!
can't wait to pirate this game when it's released.
XD only joking.
Ha ha, that's cool. [phones lawyers]
Hello, Silverfish here, who is this?
Aw man, it's wrong to pirate an indie game. :<
are you planning to release a demo someday?
well, it kinda seems nice to me, but want to test it first.
hey - that's fine - there will be a demo with the full version
YAY, finally =D
Huge blue pre-order button, here i come!
thanks mate! hope you like it.
Wait, the third 'package', including Determinance, has the same price as the second 'package'? :/
Damn, I just had my birthday nine days ago. I already bought some games. Darn et. Have to get it some other time.
It'll still be here, don't worry!
Since I can't help you with my wallet I'll try and do the next best thing! Get other people to open their wallets for you! I'm a genious! I made a thread on a forum that I'm at. Let's hope people start to notice.
You have actually been there too. Anyway here it is! Tell me what you think and tell me to correct any faulty information. I don't want to get you in trouble for my incompetence.

Thanks for doing that! Very nice - looks fine to me.
what are the lowest system requierments?
The game will currently run on pretty much any low-end modern hardware - even netbooks. You need 512 meg RAM.
Nice, I saw this during the Indie game of the year event. It looks really great, I might have to get it :) Was always a fan of tactical games.
Awesome - glad you like the look of it!
Damn nice! Wowesome guys, but the bad thing is that I don't have an international credit card (or a credit card), being a brazillian sucks...
Who here has no friend to give the copy, i'm a good friend ok? :)
congratulations to your progress!
I might take a further look into this :)
Thank you!
I will be pre-ordering as soon as possible!
I have been looking forward to Frozen Synapse since I first heard about it.
Thanks for that.
Soon as I come across some money I'll be sending it your guys' way. Game looks amazing and I know a few people would be interested as well.
Thank you! Much appreciated.
Woot! Got my friend to split the cost with me this weekend, can't wait to try it out within the week!
This game looks amazing!
It is ;-)
This is exactly the great tactical game I expected it to be, very nice job guys. This is the best game I've played this year and this is only the beta! (My ingame name is Soulrot btw)
I am SO PLEASED you like it man - you've been supporting and following us for ages, so it's making people like you happy that really counts. I'm so glad it lived up to your expectations!
I'm aware that you don't know exactly how you'll use each of our photos (customers who bought the deluxe version) but in general, what are you thinking?
Something for single player, definitely...secret files...something....possibly. Hmm. Shouldn't really talk about plans that aren't even properly formed in my own head yet!
Any plans to put it on steam, because right now i'm on the fence about buying it but if there were plans to put it in steam.
We would love to have it on Steam - we are working on a build to send to Valve. If you'd like to see it on there, please post in this forum for now - Forums.steampowered.com
I bet it would get very popular on steam. Add some steam leaderboards, acheivments and steam cloud support and there you go. Perfect.
That's exactly what we want to do.
I find it great that you guys are so active! You have pretty much replied to EVERY comment. Now that is dedication! Kudos to that sire!
Thanks, I try!
*tears*I don't have money....
any friend less people out there?
me love you long time.
You guys rule!
Thank you!
This game looks like a lot of fun. I will be purchasing in the near future! :O
Looks neat, but I have only one question:
What's the music from that vid?
That music is called "Deeper", was written by me (nervous_testpilot) especially for that trailer, and is available as part of the music pack you get when you buy one of the big pre-order bundles. Really glad you like it!
So pleased to see you guys come this far, I remember when I first saw some concept shots and fresh ideas. It was quite a pleasure watching it develop and blossom into a great game. One of the reasons I love moddb :)
I'll definitely be supporting once I save up some cash. Hopefully by this weekend. I'll probably buy it again if you release it on Steam with integration with friends list etc. Can never have too many copies to give to others!
Thanks very much mate - yes, I remember your name and we have noticed the people who have followed us since the very early days.
I hope that this shows that we mean what we say about continuing to work hard on the game. Some people have worried that, as it's so far to release, things will go wrong but this is more than just work to us - we're completely committed to making it! I think our long-term ModDB followers know this better than anyone - we've got to show the new people!
It's funny, at every stage of game development when you think you're doing well, it just shows up how hard you still have left to work!
