Hawk Tuah President Hits Steam and This Time It Might Actually Be Real

---

Hawked President has appeared on Steam, according to a store-page news post published by Gamersky. So far, it looks like an action roguelite set in a neon city with a split daily loop: win votes by day, then head behind enemy lines after dark. The article also notes the game’s App ID 3156330, while one of the images shows the time marker June 12, 2026. The piece presents it as the latest project from the team behind Space Punk, the “Turkish ARPG masterpiece” the piece says holds 97% overwhelmingly positive reviews from tens of thousands of users.

I’d put it at a 7/10 for now. At first glance, this looks like the kind of pixel-art game that could lean too hard on its premise: challenge an evil sitting president, then go save fluffy aliens on the side. That kind of pitch can easily collapse into a meme-heavy half-finished game. But the Space Punk pedigree is enough to make it worth a closer look, and that résumé carries more weight than concept-first marketing ever does.

From the footage and store-page details, the structure mixes roguelite progression, side-scrolling action, and base management. By day, you build out a fully customizable mobile bus headquarters with facilities including a forge room, medical room, laboratory, studio, and printing room. By night, you suit up, go behind enemy lines, and fight through stages with powers, weapons, and environmental combos. It has that old-school loop of between-run growth feeding the next run, but with much more emphasis on the base.

The real make-or-break issue is combat feel. The game promises 20 powers and 8 primary weapons that can be freely combined to create your own build across different stages. The combat system also includes executions on stunned enemies, plus combo and ambush options using environmental elements like crates and zip lines. On paper, that sounds solid, maybe even a modern spin on the old side-scroller promise of combat depth. The risk is obvious too: action games often look like one thing in a trailer and feel much lighter once you actually get your hands on them.

The rescued Fufus are another part to watch. They are not just mascot companions. In combat, they can join attacks and add firepower; back at base, they keep the various departments running. If you fail to care for them properly, they will leave forever. That is a smart touch, and more interesting than the purely statistical follower systems many roguelites settle for.

The premise is carrying a lot of the intrigue here. The story is set in a neon metropolis shrouded in lies, where you carry a double mission: help your father win support through speeches, and strike back against crime after dark. The article describes the player’s night role as a suited enforcer pushing into hostile territory, taking down criminal organizations while rescuing those furry alien creatures.

The practical takeaway is straightforward. This is only a Steam store page launch for now, so this is nowhere near the point for blind praise. If you’re here because it comes from the Space Punk team, it is worth wishlisting and watching closely, especially for more real gameplay footage, hit feedback, and whether the bus-base management actually matters to the loop. If you are only drawn in by the provocative marketing hook, it is better to stay cautious. The upside is that it already has a few concrete selling points. The bad news is that action roguelites have never lacked for strong concepts; what they lack are games that actually make the combat feel right.
