Core Of Havoc

About the Game

Core of Havoc is a single-player, real-time 2D space combat experience that combines tight ship controls with deep, affix-driven itemization. Set in a sleek, stylized sci-fi universe, you pilot a modular ship through procedurally generated missions where every decision—from the parts you equip to the way you maneuver—defines your path to survival.

KEY FEATURES

• Expressive Ship Customization: Build your loadout using a modular system of chassis, engines, stabilizers, radar, shield generator and weapons. With an affix system that encourages creative synergies, no two ships feel or perform the same.

• Strategic Corebound Mechanics: Manage your ship’s Core Power, a shared resource used for both weapons and powerful Corebound affixes that can completely change the gameplay

• Visually Readable Chaos: Combat states, affix effects, and ship statuses are communicated through a consistent, affix-driven visual language. From shield flickers to fiery overcharged trails, the ship properties not only affects the stats, but also changes the visuals.

• Moment-to-Moment Mastery: Success isn't just about high DPS. Master the rhythm of your build and execute satisfying combos.

• Procedural Missions & Constant Progression: Embark on 30-minute runs through branching space maps filled with glowing anomalies and dangerous asteroid belts. Collect loot, discover new affixes, and evolve your ship between sessions with a risk-vs-reward structure that rewards mastery without punishing failure.

THE GAME LOOP

• Hangar Phase: Modify your ship configuration, swap collected parts, and use resources to craft ship components or reroll and upgrade affixes.

• Extraction: Successfully extract to receive more rewards and compete missions.

• Progression: Use your findings to push into higher Mission Difficulty Ratings, unlocking more powerful components and complex challenges.
