Source Policy

Heatwarped Wiki is an unofficial reference site. This policy explains how we decide what counts as confirmed information and how we present sources on every guide page.

Primary sources

We treat the following as primary (official) sources for factual claims about Heatwarped:

1. The official Heatwarped Steam store page — developer, publisher, platform, release status, demo availability, and published system requirements.
2. The official Heatwarped account on X — direct announcements from the project.
3. The playable Steam demo — evidence for features, vehicles, and systems that can be verified in a public build.

When a detail appears on this wiki as confirmed, it should be traceable to one of these sources unless explicitly labeled otherwise.

Reference and community sources

We may cite reference databases (for example vehicle-identification communities) or community discussions (forums, Reddit threads, player reactions) to show what players are observing or debating.

Those sources are always labeled separately from official confirmation. Community enthusiasm, comparisons to other games, or speculation in comments do not become wiki canon.

What we will not publish as fact

• Release dates, platforms, or features that are not announced on official channels.
• Vehicle counts, licensed brand lists, multiplayer modes, or storage requirements invented to fill SEO gaps.
• Rumors copied from third-party news posts without a primary-source check.
• Real-world car inspirations presented as developer-confirmed when only community guesses exist.

When Sealime has not announced something, our pages say “not announced” or “unconfirmed” rather than guessing.

How pages are updated

Each major guide states when its Steam- or developer-derived facts were last checked. When official information changes — for example a release date is posted or new demo notes appear — we update the relevant page and its “last checked” note.

If you believe a page contains an error, please contact us (see below) with a link to the official source that contradicts our text.
