We are excited to announce that Ice Beam Games joins the Secret Mode family for their upcoming title bringing a unique twist to the racing genre.

We all loved the ideas behind the game that Ice Beam are building, and we can’t wait to share that and see how our players will enjoy the experience being crafted.” Said James Schall, Head of Publishing.

Secret Mode cannot wait to share the details of the game, but we would not be living up to our name if we did not hold a few secrets. Instead, allow us introduce Ice Beam Games and its founder and Studio Director, Tom Goodchild.
