Haste casts the player as Zoe, racing through a universe coming apart at the seams. Its third-person running is built around momentum and precision: a clean landing builds speed, while a mistake costs it. The crumbling surroundings make each level a race against more than the clock, with quick decisions and control of movement central to getting through.
Progress is arranged across ten Shards, each containing procedurally generated levels that must be cleared to reach the next. Along the way, Sparks can be spent in shop levels on items that adjust attributes such as speed, damage, luck, and health, giving players room to shape a build for each attempt. The journey also brings encounters with characters and challenges as Zoe seeks answers about the destruction. Haste offers both solo play and online co-op; its cooperative runs pair shared progress with comparisons of level times, adding a friendly competitive edge.
Procedural levels and customizable builds make the run itself the focus, while the story and cast give the escape through the broken worlds a larger purpose.
