Havoc Heirs Soundtrack · published
Hey everybody! I’ve been busy working on the game and felt like it was time to post an update now that I have some exciting news to share.
So currently I have 140+ monsters finished for Havoc Heirs! When I posted the trailer for the game in August 2025 I only had around ~50 done. Pretty much every day since has been waking up, drawing, animating, and then programming a little creature you’re going to be fighting soon.
Havoc Heirs is a turn-based sorta RPG sorta Roguelite (sorta dungeon crawler?). All that will make sense eventually. And in my opinion, the backbone of any good game from the above genres are #1 choices you make and #2 fun battles.
I’ll talk about #1 another time, but for now, I just wanted to highlight enemy variety in my game. My goal is to launch with around ~200 base monsters; each with their own little unique ability or damage design. Enemy variety is crucial in my opinion for a game to have some longevity and to keep combat enjoyable.
I’ll check back in soon once I have some more stuff to share. My plan is to release the game in 6-10 months so you won’t be waiting too long to play it. Thanks for reading!
Oh, and by the way… someone asked me if Havoc Heirs would be Steam Deck compatible? Well I went ahead and purchased the cheapest Deck and can confirm it’s running beautifully at 60 FPS with a native Linux build (and the appropriate controller glyphs).
I’ve already been optimizing the game a bit for Steam Deck, and I’m happy with the results. Havoc Heirs is designed around 4K where I feel my artwork looks best, but I do enjoy waking around my house and playtesting the game on my Deck.
Can't wait to show you more soon!
