Articles - Vashta Entertainment

Vashta Entertainment is a small independent game studio located in Philadelphia, PA. We develop games for Android and PC. Vashta Entertainment began in 2009 with prototypes of the games that would eventually become Harvested and Trenches of War. Founders Bret Black and Shane Draper have been passionate gamers for their entire lives and often dreamed about building games of their own. We are most heavily influenced by RPGs and RTS games that feature massive story-focused worlds. As we grew older we grew bored with other people’s worlds and we decided to build worlds of our own. Trenches of War, Vashta Entertainment’s first project, was originally released for web in August 2014. It was later updated and released for Android in September 2015. Cell: Artery Attack was released the following month. Harvested, which has been in development since late 2013, was presented at MAGFest Indie Videogame Showcase 2016.
