Grandpa has passed down his old farm to you. Help nurture it back to life in the new Homestead mode for Heat.
Homestead is a new Single Player mode, in which you build an amazing farm by day, and go to sleep at night. It was inspired by games such as Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley, but we wanted to take it in a different direction, mixing in many survival elements.
You can pick from 10 different scenarios. Each scenario has a different starting homestead, starting equipment, and some have special conditions. The game saves when you sleep at night, you can load up old saves, and it supports full admin commands.
Heat (Multiplayer Mode)
Survive the wilderness, build a home, raise a family, and expand your territory. Gain power as President, deliver justice as Sheriff, fight for your tribe as Chief, or show some southern hospitality as Governor. Begin your new life in 19th century America.
Heat is an online multiplayer survival mode for up to 40 players.
Environment
There are 20 unique biomes in Heat spread out over a 67km2 world, each with its own sub-biomes to explore. We developed a unique way to create dense forest floors which requires players to clear the land in order to build. Explore vast and diverse landscapes ranging from the cold mountainous peaks to the tropical seashores, and from the harsh deserts to the muggy swamplands. Built from the roots up using real-world photogrammetric data, experience next generation graphics in both variety and detail.
Seasons & Dynamic Weather
The game world visually updates in real time based on the season you are in. Play through all four seasons. Enjoy the crisp colors of fall, or the long snowy days of winter. Prepare your homestead for the winter time by keeping ample food supply as you cannot farm during this season. Wear some insulated clothes, keep them dry, and light some furnaces to keep warm. Check the Newspaper for a weekly weather forecast, as its important to know when the rains will come.
Towns, Merchants, and Outlaws
Visit the towns of Washington, Tombstone, and Sacayo. You can buy and sell at them, and each town has some unique goods for sale in which you can trade between towns for a profit. Merchants sell items you cannot buy from the shipping bin catalogue, and are a convenient way to sell your items when traveling.
Get a good nights rest at the local Inn, and deposit some money at the bank for safe keeping. You can also gift a dowry to any townsfolk in order to buy their affection. Fast travel between towns by buying a ticket for the train at the train stations.
However, be careful to obey the law and not shoot at townsfolk and merchants. By doing so, you will be labelled an Outlaw, receive Heat, and have the law chase you down.
Stockpiles and Shipping Bin
We introduce a new concept in stockpiles. Heavy goods require physical space for storage, so while you can still store light goods in your small containers, wood, stone, ore, and other heavy materials must be stored in large stockpiles. This gives players a visual representation of their goods, and since stockpiles take up space, thought must also go into defending them. Each player also can craft a stash container which accepts a mix of light and heavy goods to help get them started, but these come with limited slots.
Players may also build shipping bins. These can be placed in your base and you may sell harvested, crafted, and farmed goods in them for in-game currency. Shipping bins also come with a catalog with which you may order items using your hard earned in-game currency.
Farming and Cooking
Get farm-ready with the hoe, watering can, sprinklers, and scythe. Each tool has its own set of tiers, and there are a variety of crops that may be planted. Fertilizers are also an important consideration for the aspiring farmer.
Once your crops have matured, harvest them and bring them to the cooking stations in order to produce a wide range of food types. You may also decide to sell your crops in your shipping bin and buy more seed for your farming operation.
Building & Crafting
Construct your new home - From a quick hobo shack, a rustic cabin deep in the woods, a refined mansion, or a giant fortress. Craft and place walls, floors, doors, windows, furniture, and other fixtures individually by your own design. Process goods with sawmills, tanneries, smelters and other workstations. These materials will aid in crafting at various workstations and purchasing blueprints. Protect your establishment with well-placed cannons and strategically planned fortifications using massive rampart building sections.
Mounts, Livestock & Wildlife
The landscape is populated by a variety of American wildlife, all of which can be hunted - assuming you are not hunted yourself. But they can also be tamed, whether as livestock or as a beloved pet. You may ride tamed horses, as well as other animals - even bears!
Survival
Gather and hunt for food to keep yourself strong. Collect a variety of raw materials from nature for use in crafting, building and refinement. Once you have the basics of sticks and stones down, you may begin your journey towards establishing yourself as an industrious and powerful colony or even President of the United States.
There will be struggles and fallbacks along the way. Your character may be killed and robbed, where everything he or she has equipped is taken. Your property may be broken into and looted by a gang of raiders lead by other players. But with plenty of resources and defensive tactics at your disposal, raiders will be in for a serious fight.
Go Forth and Multiply
Start a family with other players or NPCs. Players can give birth to a newborn. The newborn grows to become a baby, the baby then grows up to be a child, the child eventually becomes an adult.
A second option is to adopt from an orphanage by purchasing a baby basket in the shipping catalog. The baby will be inside the basket delivered to you. Adoption is very expensive, but provides a guaranteed outcome.
Your children are a mix of the visual DNA of the two parents. Babies, children, and adults will need to feed and stay hydrated.
Once your kids become adults you can equip them with outfits, gear, and weapons. They can help protect you when you are online.
Road Building
Build roads in the game or create pads around your base using the rake tool. Players may build roads using a variety of materials ranging from wood chips, dirt, sand, gravel, pavement and more. Players may also place freshly cut lawn for a well-kept look.
Seats of Power
As President, you own the Whitehouse, a section of land south of the monument, one intern, a golden gun, and two secret service NPCs. You also get to set and collect a President’s land tax. Players may also become the Sheriff, Chief, or Governor. Each are given their own areas, items, and NPCs.
Combat & Capture
On your adventures you'll encounter other players who may or may not be friendly. Likewise, you may not be so friendly either given these tactics at your disposal:
- Fill 'em full of lead with plenty of handguns, rifles, shotguns and other firearms to craft.
- Take the more silent approach with bows and javelins that will leave your foes looking like a pin cushion.
- Get up in their face with melee instruments, or beat them down with some good old blunt force.
- Capture, restrain, and put them into your interrogation dungeon with its various contraptions.
- Messily dismember with a well-placed strike or shotgun blast.
- Blow them to smithereens with artillery cannon fire and TNT.
- Experience the thrill of vigilante justice from either a first or third person perspective.
Character Customization
Choose your gender and tune your appearance to your liking, including variations in skin tone, height and girth, the shape of facial features, hair or lack thereof, and voice tone.

Note, this game is not worth the full price do to how the developers run their games. But on sale it's worth it.
That being said the review:
So before I played this game I liked playing Reign of Kings, game got abandoned because the devs came and worked on this game. Looks like they worked on if for... a little bit longer then kings. It shows improvement from it.
My first game experience I started as nobody in winter. Just a drifter, moving down the road, trying to find my place. Finally stopped next to the tracks in the forest. Began by clearing the are, getting a fire going to keep myself warm from the cold. Fast forward a few hours, my little spot in the woods and turned into a log cabin, I've started working on getting tools, and I've been hard at work clearing the woods next to my cabin, and I'm now plowing the field and setting up a wooden fence for the upcoming spring.
This game really does feel like I'm a pioneer founding a start for a new farm/town/work site, anything I can imagine and for that I highly recommend.
However this is Codehatch, they have left this game to move on to another game. But for what they have done, I would say it's worth. Don't except many people on though, this is a code hatch game. so the player count is little to none.
4/5 would recommend for the solo, relaxing, larping side.
Abandoned like every other Code Hatch game, its a shame because these games would be amazing if they just made them stable. Sell the game off to someone else to finish the project or something.....
NO !!!!! I will never buy any CodeHatch product again. Praise the nine I got this on discount .
Scam!

This is the game that made me start looking at Dev before I buy. This is the second one of their games they have stopped working on... Too bad cause this has a lot of potential.
Fucking shit devs always abandon everything, hope they read this. Go fuck yourselves
game has always sucked. also, abandoned. dont bother.
Honestly, I wanted to like this game, but they no longer update it. I felt like this game could have been great. I don't know what happened to the development to the game but my guess was they weren't fixing the main issue with the game and prioritizing the gamer who play the game and listening to them about what could be done differently. I still struggle to play single player. Before, it was because of the gaming laptop I was playing on but now I have a full set up. I may try it again just to see if anything is different, but I would not recommend anyone spending their hard earned money on this game. Not even worth the 20 bucks they are selling it for. Wait for a sale if you really want to play this game that bad.
The concept was interesting, but it was too challenging for me to play via keyboard
An interesting historical period in the USA
On its face, the concept behind HEAT is *solid* and completely underserved in the genre. Unfortunately, the developers *appear* to have ceased development on the title.
As of the time of writing this review (Summer 2024) the last update appears to be approximately 3 years ago.
Systems wise, HEAT has a great deal of interesting loops - but most of the game unfortunately is very poorly executed.
The title has EAC as mandatory, no switches I've found (or cfg settings) will disable EAC for your private server, and unfortunately there seems to be some sort of RPC threshold being crossed during play that will likely end up with you being temp banned (approx 15 mins?) from your own server by EAC.
Outside of functional issues with running your own game server:
- Player SFX are excessively loud
- Impact SFX, foot steps, you name it. Its either too quiet, or far too loud.
- Animations and Player Models are extremely low quality
- First Time User Experience is near completely absent
- Player Base is miniscule for a game of its age
- Unlocks and the Tech Tree don't really seem to make much sense
I have not (unfortunately) been able to experience any player to player interactions, due to the extremely small player base.
Maybe this might be interesting in the single player approach? However I strongly advise against buying HEAT for more than a 4.99 sale.
abandonware
Idea / Concept is great. Company behind it not so great.. Game not complete and abandoned. Steam needs to create reviews for companies, coz these Aholes just releases new EA titles for money graps.
