The gameplay of Havocado is a fun and chaotic blend of mechanics inspired by games like Gang Beasts and Stick Fight, featuring unique maps and humorous physics that enhance the multiplayer experience. However, the introduction of a new health system and wall jumping mechanic has received criticism, with some players feeling it detracts from the overall enjoyment. Despite these issues, the game remains engaging for players who appreciate its silly and explosive combat style.
“As others have stated, Havocado is a nice gameplay blend between Gang Beasts and Stick Fight: The Game, but in my opinion, it takes those ideas and makes them better.”
“The game mechanics are perfectly made for a 'fight your friends' type game.”
“Nothing says 'fun, silly gameplay' like blasting three of your friends into oblivion with one bazooka in each hand while flying over them with a water-propelled jetpack...”
“The new health system is not well designed (see other reviews) and is two steps back from the old kill mechanics.”
“I still play this game once in a while... but it's lost its fun ever since they added the health system and the wall jumping mechanic.”
“I wish the devs could make a beta to play on without the health and wall jumping mechanic...”
