You've waited a long time for this, and the dreaded day has finally arrived. Today, you see the results for the Frosty Four Digits competition. Every finalist gets a prize, but in order to receive the prizes, you must have a Steam account and a Paypal account.
This was such a close contest, and for a moment, there were several ties that we would have had to break. But in the end everything evened out, and the winners were decided.Here were the finalists:Deep Freeze by anthonyloprimo and link2x101Epic Christmas by MegaKizuna, the Girl Who Saved Christmas by PurianiteSnowball Commander by UnalignedSuper Snowball Fighters by DaggerhogIn fifth place was….Super Snowball Fighters!Your hard work paid off, and while you were skeptical, you placed in the top five. Daggerhog receives a hearty pat on the back, any prizes someone may discard (but don't get your hopes up), annnnd a random Steam game that happens to be on sale today.You're lucky. On sale is a package including Dead Space and Dead Space 2. Hope you have a good computer, because this is a pretty damn good deal. And if not, I can award the prize to someone else, or you could just find (or buy) a (friend's) good computer!In fourth place was….Snowball Commander!Well polished and easy to play, you can't go wrong with classic arcade games. Unaligned will receive Left 4 Dead 2 and a $5 cash prize.In third place was….Deep Freeze!One of the unique entries in that it was a puzzle game. Solid and has potential.
