Frozenbyte, the studio most famous for their Trine series, is currently working on a brand new co-op action-adventure seemingly inspired by Magicka. What this means in gameplay terms is that you will be able to master a wide variety of spells and effects, explode or crush hordes upon hordes of enemies, and hopefully try to do all of that without accidentally killing all of your allies in either local or online co-op.

If you would like to learn a tiny bit more, with the emphasis being firmly placed on "tiny", you should head over to either Steam or the official website. And since I can offer you nothing else, allow me send you off with a couple of charming images:
