Haste - Arcade Mode

 
 

Hey everyone,

Of course our game Haste is still taking up most of my creative time, so I just wanted to share another big update that we’ve included on the demo. This blog wasn’t meant to be just another self-promo channel but marking down some of the big updates is nice to do on a personal site. Regardless, you can find out more info on the official blog about the Arcade Mode Here.

Cheers,

Haste is Going to Steam Next Fest 2022

 
 

Hello Everyone

Just wanted to post a quick update letting you know we will be part of the June 2022 edition of the Steam Next Fest. We have been playing with the idea of taking a part, but this seems to be the best time for us with the upcoming release date of Fall 2022.

We are really excited to be taking a part of the Steam Next Fest and will be pushing this on our socials as we head into the event. Having come off of the XP Game Dev Summit, we are glad to be getting out there and meeting with other business partners and of course you fine folks taking an interest in Haste.

We hope that anyone reading this can take a part of the Steam Next Fest this season and please follow along our socials to get updates!

Cheers,

~ Cedrick

Down But Not Out

 
 

Hello Everyone,

This is just a repost from our blog over at our Hot Sauce Bread Blog.


The Haste Kickstarter is officially over and unfortunately we did not meet our goal. While this news is hard to hear, we have had time to take a step back and figure out what went wrong.

First thing to address, Haste will still be released. If you played the demo, you know that the game is polished and fleshed out. We came to Kickstarter to realize the vision we had for Haste, but having fallen short we are now evaluating our different options for the next step.

If you're still looking to support us it is super easy. If you have Steam, just head over to the Haste page and click 'Wishlist'. If you don't have Steam, let people know who might. This is a quick and impactful way to help. If you still want to stay updated and hang out, please consider hopping onto our Discord.

If you've read our last few updates, you know that we are focusing on the feedback from backers. Reading comments isn't always the easiest thing to do, but we've been getting a lot of positive messages mixed with constructive criticisms. We are looking at ways to capitalize on these strengths and address the issues being raised. Also, we are planning on new ways to make Haste a richer experience for players and we hope that you can follow us on this journey.

The last question you may have is about the March 2022 release date. This was set as an achievable date, and if we wanted to push the game out the door we could. Since even we don't know exactly what the road map is going to be going forward, we will leave that up as a tentative date.

This campaign has shown us a lot and we are forever grateful for the people who banded together to get our project as high as it did. We recognize that you've put your faith in us and we owe it to all our backers and fans to make Haste a reality.

Gratefully,

~ Cedrick & Jacob

Haste Hits Kickstarter!

Hey Everyone,

So the time has FINALLY come, and Haste has officially launched on Kickstarter!

After years of development we are ready to throw it all out there. For those aware of my personal situation, there are a lot of life changing events happening at once. These changes are overall positive, but I have been exhausted juggling the different responsibilities on my plate for well over a month now. That being said, Jacob and I have both powered through during this tough COVID time and are proud of what we’ve accomplished.

Please check out our project on Kickstarter and make a pledge that feels right for you.  Also, you can still support us by hopping onto social media and just posting a simple message like the following:

Check out the indie game Haste, a card battler that’s played in real time.  The project is live now on Kickstarter  https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hastegame/haste

We hope that you’ve all had a chance to try out our demo but if you haven’t, give it a whirl and consider backing us.

I also wanted to end off by giving a huge thank you to my family and friends who have supported us throughout development. It hasn’t been easy for most people this past year so having people take time away from their own life to show support for what we’re working on has really meant a lot.

Cheers,

~ Cedrick

Moving Forward with Haste!

 
Haste Logo
 

Over a year later and I post once more! So, how has your year been going :S

Where have I been? well, I think that the title and logo give it away. Jacob and myself have been busy working on Haste. Did you know that we have a new and improved website and trailer?

I figured I’d dust off this blog and post about it today. We are both very proud of how far we’ve come, and it has been a long… long journey to get here. If you are looking to support us and our fledgling indie studio Hot Sauce Bread, please share and like and all that stuff. This helps us immensely and we would really appreciate it.

What, you didn’t click the trailer link above? well here, let me help you out.

Cheers!
