HELLSPRINT is getting published by ESA!
I'm incredibly excited to announce that HELLSPRINT is officially partnering with the European Speedrunner Assembly (ESA) as its publisher!
For those unfamiliar, ESA is the organization behind some of Europe's biggest charity speedrunning events, raising tons of money for great causes while bringing together speedrunners from all over the world.
Last summer, I had the opportunity to showcase HELLSPRINT at ESA Summer 2025. Seeing players discover the game firsthand was an amazing experience, and the response from attendees exceeded all my expectations. Since then, I've stayed in touch with the ESA team, and when the opportunity arose to work together and have them publish HELLSPRINT, it was an easy decision.
As a longtime fan of speedrunning, it's hard to put into words how exciting this partnership is. HELLSPRINT has always been built with speedrunners in mind, and I couldn't imagine a better team-up to really bring the HYPE! Speaking of which...
HELLSPRINT is releasing on August 3rd!
HELLSPRINT will officially launch on Steam on August 3rd, 2026!
The release date has been chosen to coincide with ESA Summer 2026, and I'm incredibly excited to finally share the full game with both speedrunners and newcomers during one of the biggest speedrunning events of the year.
New Demo Available Now!
To celebrate the announcement, I've also released a brand-new demo that you can play right now.
The updated demo includes new levels, improvements based on community feedback, and new hidden collectibles! You can find one in every level!
And this isn't the end of it. Even more content and improvements will be added to the demo very soon as I prepare for Steam Next Fest, so keep an eye out for updates!
Give it a try, and as always, let me know what you think!
