Desktop Havoc

Your desktop is the battlefield.

Desktop Havoc is a chaotic physics sandbox that plays out on your actual Windows desktop. Pick up a ridiculous arsenal and send your real windows flying, shattering, and burning across the screen — then press Restore and put everything back. Destruction without the consequences.

Wreck your real desktop

Chaos mode runs live on your desktop. Your browser, your editor, your calculator — all fair game. Blast them, shove them, torch them. When you need to actually work, switch Chaos off and your windows stay put.

An absurd arsenal

Rockets that send windows flying across the screen. Flamethrowers, railguns, scatter shots, freeze rays, paint guns and more. Aim in 2D, or drop into first-person view to place every shot exactly where you want it. Grapple onto a window and reel yourself up to it.

Four ways to play:

💥 Chaos — The sandbox. Rifle, scatter, grenades, rockets, a flamethrower, a freeze ray, a railgun, plasma, a grapple, and more. Shove your real windows around, crack the glass, leave scorch marks, and rack up a combo score. Opt-in — flip Chaos: Off and shots just wobble windows harmlessly.

⚔️ Battle — 1v1 against an enemy that actually plays smart: it feints, edge-guards, adapts to your habits, and fights across four distinct personalities. Ring it out to win. Adjustable difficulty.

☠️ Zombie — Wave survival. Hold off a closing horde of shamblers, runners, and brutes with your full arsenal and one health bar. How many waves can you last?

❤️ Companion — The calm one. Your character lives on your desktop, trailing your cursor and climbing your open windows to reach it while you work. Grab and fling it whenever you like.
