| Dev Log #4: Tips and Tricks! | 2019-03-15 | Hovership Havoc is a difficult game but there are some things you can do to give yourself the best chance at getting far. Here are some tips and tricks for the game Movement: Keep moving and use Hovership’s momentum to your advantage. Your Hovership will take damage if you make contact with an enemy, but with most smaller enemies, you damage them back! Speed Burst: All Hoverships start with the Speed Burst ability by default. You can use it to quickly change direction or get out of the way of attacks. It gives you a split second of invulnerability that you can use to dodge through smaller enemies or enemy attacks! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd. |

| Dev Log # 3: The Abilities | 2019-02-18 | Hovership Havoc features more than 30 sci-fi upgradeable abilities. Things like drones, lasers, shields, and rockets are all different types of the randomly dropped abilities you will find. Depending on the ability, when you upgrade(level up) an ability, you will improve any of the applicable stats like the duration, damage, damage radius, and cooldown time for that ability. Using your abilities will be increasingly important as you progress through the game a Homing Missiles: Launches a bunch of homing missiles that auto target nearby enemies. Upgrading this ability will increase the damage of each missile and decrease the amount of time you |
| Hovership Havoc Game Development Progress over 3 years! | 2019-02-04 | A while back I compiled a video of how Hovership Havoc looked over the 3 years since I started developing it. So in case you missed it, here is a video of how things looked and how the game went from looking like this: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32926099/be9aaa3a04299ba7eeb0065bbfa3de80e7e08733.gif To how it looks now, https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32926099/95a3522796c5249111b38bffef8c7cd20600da07.gif Take a look at the whole process over the 3 years of development, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TZGgUKXJAo |
| Dev Log #2: The Enemies | 2019-01-19 | Here is a quick overview of the enemies you will encounter in Hovership Havoc! Spider Bots: The most common enemy but there are 4 different variants, with their own color to help differentiate between them all. The yellow spider bot is the standard one with average speed and average HP. The orange bot is really fast but with a low HP. The red bot has high HP but moves slightly slower than the yellow spider bot. It also has the ability to sometimes jump forward which can make it a bit unpredictable. The purple spider bot has a turret on it’s back and will shoot at you at an interval. They all will continue to chase you down until you or they a |
| Dev Log #1: The Hoverships | 2019-01-10 | Here is a brief overview of each of the playable Hoverships in Hovership Havoc. Each hovership has a speed burst ability from the start and can equip any two of more than 30 randomly dropped abilities. Each hovership is also fully upgradeable across 7 different stats like speed, shot rate and weapon damage! Devastator: The Devastator is the quickest hovership available. It’s main weapon packs a huge punch with extremely high damage and a wide spread. But it balances out by having a short range and a low shot rate. You will need to keep moving and use this hovership’s speed to your advantage to get in close to deal damage, but then get away as |
