"Steam is just great. Here you have a platform that can reach millions of users and carry an impressive game lineup," said Jason Fader, president of Iocaine Studios. "Indie games like ours can get some great exposure this way, plus Steam makes it really easy for users to try the game before they buy it."

"Iocaine Studios is taking full advantage of the ways developers can test, distribute, and promote great games via Steam," said Jason Holtman, director of business development at Valve. "Last week, Steam hosted a successful 'stress test' of ThreadSpace: Hyperbol, during which thousands of users playtested the game's multiplayer features. Starting this week, gamers can save 20% by pre-ordering the full game."
