He also manages multiple groups like Chaos Organization, I-C-T Studios and Shazam Studios to name a few. Developers in said groups have produced games of varying popularity, such as Blox Cards (1M+ visits, wikia).

User History
Throughout the years 2010-2015, IcyTea made various games ranging from social hangouts to elaborate puzzle games.

He briefly associated with a clan named 'Griffin Squad' between 2010-2012.

He is most known on ROBLOX Talk for being open to ideas and feedback from the sub-forum. He later went to move to All Things ROBLOX the day it was added to ROBLOX's sub-forum listings (January 2013), stating that "RT (ROBLOX Talk) was not what it used to be in 2010, and that most of the forumers that he kept in contact also wished to move to All Things ROBLOX." Later on he posted actively in both sub-forums until 2014. His cause of inactivity was due to trading on Steam and focusing on Steam until the summer of 2015.

BLOX Cards
In the summer of 2015, he requested some scripters in the Scripters sub-forum to help him work on a card game called 'BLOX Cards'. After a few days, he met with user Drager980 to start on the Pre-Alpha release which then progressed until Alpha release.



During Alpha, Drager980 parted ways with IcyTea and suggested Visleaf to help continue the scripting and ultimately the reworks of BLOX Cards. Notable community members such as Myrmiredon, Mitpaul, Dun_Goof, and Arceusdon (as well as including the wikia members and admins of the BLOX Cards Wikia ) helped shape the game into what it is today, helping IcyTea with the game's core gameplay as well. The game became a mild success, having very similar features and an upgraded design compared to past attempts at card games relying on the GUI. Shedletsky praised the game for it's uniqueness for a card game on ROBLOX.

There is a planned Beta release for BLOX Cards, however the date is constantly pushed back into a hiatus for now.
