We’re here. We made it. It took us a year and a half to make Heave Ho, then 4 years for Heave Ho 2. So we’ve spent 5 and a half years of our lives creating farty, legless dudes. I have no regrets. Heave Ho 2 is out today. If you’ve already tried the demo, you know what’s coming: lots of swearing and laughing with friends online and/or on your sofa. Our silly game might look simple on the surface, but there are hidden depths. Don’t think you can conquer all 72 co-op levels across 8 worlds and 56 randomized versus levels then just walk away like some modern day king of the swingers. There are so

Join forces with up to 3 friends online (or local of course) to swing, fart, and die together in glo

It’s been 7 years of getting yelled at for not adding content to Heave Ho. To hopefully earn your forgiveness we’re dropping a big HEAVE HO 2 on you! Just like that, out of nowhere, BAM! So do your stretches and cool off your neck, because this summer, a whole new adventure begins again! OMAGAD.We didn’t hold back: more content, more surprises, insane environments, costumes for the characters…and even customizable farts. Yes. You heard that right, we don’t joke about that sort of thing at Le Cartel.Now, for the most burning question, the one everyone’s been waiting for…will it be playable onli

Hello, this is Fred and Alex from Le Cartel. We released Heave Ho six years ago, and it’s incredible to see so many people still laughing and cursing together with our game. Thank you!We probably should have done this years ago, but today we are releasing Camille Giraudeau’s brilliant Heave Ho soundtrack on Steam. His music is such an important part of Heave Ho, and we couldn’t imagine the game without it.And because he is a super kind guy, he’s remastered it so it sounds better than ever. By the way, did you know that Camille has another life as a black metal musician, including drumming with
