Wow! 400% funded - Here's how we'll break the last stretch goal with 6 days to go!
about 5 years ago – Mon, Mar 25, 2019 at 11:09:35 PM


We're on our way to break $200k! Another stretch goal unlocked. Tweak your playthrough with a multitude of settings; including galaxy size, pirate and space hazards frequency on the star map, resource abundance and difficulty progression. These and many more will be available for customization.


And more good news! You have reached all community goals! This means all backers starting $20 and up will be receiving an additional copy of the game when it is officially released. Great job! Thank you so much for spreading the word and we're so happy to be able to reward you for it =)

Keep sharing the word! It will help us reach the final stretch goal allowing you to play another faction's journey!



ONLY THE LAST STRETCH GOAL REMAINS, the big $200k! Choose to play as the Android Collective, Pirates Coalition, Slaver's Guild or Military Alliance among other possible factions. Learn their motivations and watch how their stories unfold.  


We're running out of days but we can make it. We have a plan to give this campaign a little boost and make the chances to reach that $200k much better!

Our numbers are strong. IF ALL OF US PLEDGE $10 MORE we will reach the final stretch goal and you'll be able to play as the Android Collective, Pirates Coalition, Slaver's Guild or Military Alliance. 

To change your pledge amount: 

1) Visit the project page and click the “Manage your pledge" button that appears next to your pledge amount and then select "Change your pledge" on the following page.

2) From here, you’ll be able to adjust your pledge amount or choose a new reward tier you'd like to pledge for and your pledge amount will update automatically.

We have come so far! Amazing. We have come so far that even $200k is not impossible anymore.


"But Bugbyte we are so far from $200k and there's only 10 days to go!"

Aye, fight for it and we may be disappointed. Dying in our beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the beers from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our beers, but they will never take our passion!

Rise my minions and spread the word of Space Haven. Spread it wide and far. If we can make it to $170k with 2 days to go, the end will sort itself out! There's magic in this world yet, who's with me!

"You have my beer! You have my balloon! But... What are the final stretch goals?"


Glad you asked! We want Space Haven to encompass all player styles, whether you like a real challenge or a casual saturday playthrough. Tweak your playthrough with a multitude of settings; including galaxy size, pirate and space hazards frequency on the star map, resource abundance and difficulty progression. These and many more will be available for customization for each playthrough.
 

If you want to hop right in, choose a pre-set designed for a certain style of play, and receive a mark of honor for beating the hardest difficulties. 



The universe of Space Haven has other stories besides your beloved ragtag crew of civilians. Choose to play as the Android Collective, Pirates Coalition, Slaver's Guild or Military Alliance among other possible factions. Learn their motivations and watch how their stories unfold.


Unique faction mechanics will be introduced where possible, such as the Android Collective valuing power and not needing food or oxygen to survive and the Slaver's guild whose lack of compassion lets them witness human misery and remain unaffected.

Thank you for your support, now let's conquer $200k together!

Boom! 300% funded - Augmentation & Implants confirmed. New stretch goal revealed.
about 5 years ago – Sat, Mar 16, 2019 at 02:01:15 AM


Here we are once again! Another stretch goal blasted from orbit. This means you will be able to modify your crew members surgically, improve their capabilities and take them beyond human limits! 

We've had a good time partying but it suddenly started raining  micrometeoroids on us and our cake got destroyed! Some of our friends got hit in the head, oh no! Oh well, the party must go on. Time to reveal the next stretch goal.


Nobody said leaving Earth would be easy! Your crew will encounter dangerous environments and random threats such as solar flares, micrometeoroids and nebulas. Some peculiar quirk of a Siren World's composition and atmosphere disorients and confuses the human brain, leading to vivid hallucinations and strange behaviour.   


You are doing great regarding the community goals! All you need is a final push and you'll reach all the goals! Here's how you can help:


Remember to give Space Haven a follow and wishlist on Steam above if you have missed that one =) 


Time to do a shout-out to our amazing Composer Paul Zimmermann, creating both the music and sounds for Space Haven. We also want to thank the talented Scalefin for the amazing vocals for the Space Haven main menu music. You can listen to their collaboration above.


We've arrived in the middle days of Kickstarter, the toughest days to keep the campaign progressing at a nice pace. We don't have much of a marketing budget or a publisher, but we have you, our awesome supporters. We have still a few very cool stretch goals we want to show you! =)

Magical $100k reached! Robots & Androids confirmed. Revealing new stretch goal.
about 5 years ago – Tue, Mar 12, 2019 at 01:12:12 AM


12 days in and we have reached the magical $100k! We were having a blast rallying up our community to break through the barrier. And together we did it. Thank you so much for your ongoing support. You will see Robots and Androids in the game.


Some of us had a little too much beer and slipped in the toilet. He hurt his legs, so we decided to fix him with some robot legs. He's clumsy, but at least he can walk around now! Time to reveal the next stretch goal! Hope you will like this one =)


Enhance your crew members with technology such as the ocular implant, which improves accuracy and provides low-light vision; implanted rebreathers, which decrease your crew members' oxygen needs; and the synthetic stomach lining, which allows crew members to get more nutrition from their food and go longer without starving. These and many more will be implemented should we reach the stretch goal.


Nice progress on the community goals! 2/7 already reached with lots of time to go. Keep sharing the word and all backers starting $20 and up will be enjoying an additional copy of Space Haven when it is officially released.

Here's how you can help:

Space Haven in the media

"I think this game is going to blow up, and for all the good reasons" - MetalCanyon

We really loved this video of Space Haven. The player is able to show and explain the various systems of Space Haven really well. Watching this video made us so happy and motivated. This is why we make games, to see players have a good time and truly enjoy the experience it delivers.

Now how about we crush that new stretch goal faster than a rocket? You know the drill. Show Space Haven to your friends, mom and dad, sister and all your uncles. Everyone. Show everyone!

200% funded in 7 days! Station Mode unlocked - Time to reveal the next stretch goal.
about 5 years ago – Thu, Mar 07, 2019 at 10:10:54 AM


We did it. 200% funded within 7 days. It was looking tight there for a while, as if the hyperdrive was running out of hyperfuel. Then a post on the pcgaming subreddit took off like a rocket! Players seemed to love the look of Space Haven there too. With this new found boost of players Space Haven soared through the first stretch goal within 7 days from start of the campaign!


We were cautiously hopeful we could make this Kickstarter work when we launched, but this has surpassed our wildest dreams! In fact, things have been going so good we decided it was time to bring some beer to the party! (Uh oh, what might this lead to?)


And now for the exciting part! It's time to reveal our next stretch goal set at $100k! We're not far from it so let's work together to reach it fast. Share the word among friends and feel free to also share this Kickstarter wherever you might think it will find its audience :) 

Many of you have wished for Robots and Androids. With this stretch goal you'll encounter security bots, helper bots and even pet robots in the game! We had Androids planned, but with this stretch goal we want to add more depth to them. We already had our writer write The Android Manifesto. You can read it below.

One of the community goals has already been reached! Well done! It's looking great. Keep up the good work. You can help by sharing the word:

And even though the Steam wishlist goal has been reached please do give it a wishlist there if you haven't already :)


Thank you for being with us on this journey. Now let's go reach that next stretch goal together!
