Why these Nordic game developers believe in PC and console over mobile

Here’s something crazy: a game developer in Northern Europe that doesn’t really want to make mobile games.

Poppermost Productions is the Swedish game studio responsible for the Early Access skiing hit Snow that debuted on Steam last year. Now the company is planning to release Snow into closed beta in preparation of releasing it as a “completed” free-to-play game on PC and PlayStation 4. The beta will hit in March, and Poppermost chief executive Alexander Bergendahl and his team plan to show off how Snow has grown at the Game Developer’s Conference in San Francisco that same month.
