Electro Havoc
SteamEnter a neon-charged battleground where survival meets explosive energy in this retro, space-themed twin-stick shooter! As you dance through waves of geometric adversaries, each defeated enemy leaves behind a deadly debris field—lure other enemies into these hazard zones to trigger devastating chain reactions and score multipliers.
Snag powerful upgrades that temporarily boost your ship's offensive and defensive capabilities while you craft the perfect storm of destruction, turning enemy movements into opportunities for spectacular combos. Set your own pace in this sleek, modern take on classic arcade action, where minimalist design meets pixel particle effects in a sea of vibrant colors.
During Early Access, you'll be playing World 1 that consists of 10 waves of increasingly difficult and numerous foes. I will be creating new Worlds and the ability to transit between them. You can also expect the following when the game comes out of EA:
Mastering Electro Havoc is easy: Use the two joysticks (or WASD+LMB) to control your ship and spray bullets in the general direction of your foes.
Take control of the Starfighter X-7, a lightning-fast combat ship that comes equipped with devastating weapon systems, perfect for carving through waves of geometric baddies. Just... don't let them touch you.

As you progress through the levels, you'll spot offensive and defensive power-ups that last for a few moments in-game -- listen for the audible cue that they're running out. Grab them on the map before they disappear!
Defensive Power-ups


Offensive Power-ups


In World 1, you face off the pointiest of foes: The Shard. As you advance through the waves, they'll grow in size, health and possibly speed but will also introduce new attack patterns like flanking, waving about, and pulsing, to name a few. Stay vigilant!
