'Bake 'n Switch' (ALL) Launches Kickstarter Campaign - Trailer

by Rainier on May 7, 2020 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

Bake 'n Switch is a couch co-op and PVP game where strange, adorable dough creatures are sacrificed to Guardians of Dough!

A long time a dough in a bakery far, far away, The First Bakers came together to defeat the Scourge. The Scourge threatened their precious food source – unreasonably cute and blobular dough creatures that roam the land.

Work as a team (up to 4 players) or sabotage each other to punch, combine, and bake the doughs before time runs out.

It’s a breadful task but someone’s gotta do it!

To save their world, The Bakers must combine the doughs – the bigger the dough, the higher your score…

…and bake heaving mounds of dough in the oven before time runs out!

Streamline Games has launched a Kickstarter campaign for Bake 'n Switch, looking to raise $30,000 to deliver online multi-player for launch day. 

Initially a stretch goal for our independent studio, Streamline Games, community feedback has proven this is an element the team did not want to delay. The current global lockdown forcing people to stay at home has only encouraged Streamline Games, and its publisher Streamline Media Group, to make online multiplayer a priority.

The 4-player co-op, PVP, and team vs team game due for release on PC and the Nintendo Switch will now push to deliver online multiplayer right out of the oven! 

“The personal connections we formed with new fans at PAX East were eye-opening for us,” said Stefan Baier, COO of Streamline Games. “The game is ready now and should be shared with more players. We hope to achieve that through our online campaign.” 

“Streamline acknowledges that now, more than ever, people are turning to video games to provide entertainment and connect them with family and friends,” said Alexander Fernandez, CEO of Streamline Media Group. “Playing apart, together, is our shared global reality, and the team has rallied behind the idea of bringing multiplayer to Bake ‘n Switch. We wanted to bring back the joy of playing together, and we can’t wait for players to join.”

Journey through the levels to summon the Guardians, satiate their insufferable munchies and gain their aid to defeat The Scourge. Little did the Bakers know what the Guardians demanded in return…

Punch away yucky Spores and Stickies before innocent buns turn bad! If you’re lucky, collect power-ups to Freeze, Electrify, Magnet & Solar Palm your way to victory!

Test your friendships by sabotaging each others ovens to bake as many doughs to win gloating rights.

Bakers hold the most prestigious yet perilous position amongst their kin. Only the swiftest and sharpest of the lot get called to enter the inner sanctum of The First Bakers.

Currently available on Steam Early Access, Bake 'n Switch is also coming to Nintendo Switch in summer 2020.
