Interview with Mårten from Pieces appears in Swedish newspaper. Read below to compete for one of 5 free copies of Fret Nice!

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

Sweden’s largest evening newspaper recently published a short interview with Mårten, the Game Director of Fret Nice, about the origins and history of the game.

What this has to do with E-sports though is not clear at this point, but that doesn’t matter as we bask in the glory of  newfound fame and glory!

Now to the really fun part! Look closely at the image above.

Q: If Mårten was an enemy in Fret Nice, what kind of riff do you think you would need to pull off in order to destroy him?

To participate in the challenge you need to:

1. Re-tweet this tweet from the Pieces Twitter

2. Send the correct button sequence to defeat Mårten as a direct message to the Pieces Twitter

The first 5 people who successfully do the above and supply the correct answer will receive a free code for Fret Nice. Though only one copy per person and cheaters will not go by unnoticed!

The winners will be announced here as well as on the Twitter. Spread the word & good luck!

Big news are never too late!

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Sorry for the radio silence the past weeks. We at Pieces have been incredibly busy lately with different projects and we think its way overdue that we post something about it.

If you happened to follow the news streams from the past E3 show, you may just have caught our little  name there. You weren’t imagining things.

At E3, Tecmo Inc (the creators of such hits as Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden, Tecmo Bowl and Fatal Frame) finally announced what we had known for a while,  that they will be publishing two titles developed by us here at Pieces!

We are currently underway with the development of Fret Nice and Puzzlegeddon for XBLA & PSN. We are very proud of these two titles and are working hard to deliver the best they can be. We are very happy that the games have finally been announced for everyone to know and see.

Below are announcement trailers for the games, courtesy of Tecmo Inc. Enjoy!

Expect more information regarding these titles in the coming weeks and months.
