Haste Demo
Haste Demo is a high-speed third-person running demo from Landfall released for Next Fest on Feb 24, 2025. You play as Zoe through collapsing, procedurally generated worlds where momentum, precise landings and quick decisions matter. The demo includes a tutorial, a small hubworld, one shard with multiple levels, challenges and a boss encounter, and it’s single-player only. Items and abilities appear during runs to change builds and progression. The full game was updated after this demo based on feedback; the demo itself was not updated. The build supports Windows, macOS and Linux and offers full English audio plus subtitles and interface text in multiple languages.
Features
High-speed third-person running
Momentum and precise landings are core mechanics — maintaining speed and timing every landing affects your runs.
Procedurally generated shard levels
Levels in the shard are generated procedurally so each run presents different layouts and obstacles to navigate before the world collapses.
Movement, items and builds
Items and abilities appear during runs and can be combined to alter movement and progression during a shard attempt.
