Game description
Curse of the Waves puts you in the shoes of Zachary, a college student who uses surfing as a way to distract himself. But things don't go as planned, and suddenly you find yourself underwater with something (someone?) talking to you. Dive in, choose your words carefully, and try to return to your life as it always has been.
Theme interpretation
As the ocean waves and as sound waves (kinda enemy waves too)

Nice job guys!! It`s a really cool game the visual novel part surprise me.
Muy buen proyecto chicos ;)
Muchas gracias! Me alegra que te haya gustado la parte de la novela visual :D
Amazing music!!!
I did not expect the twist at all. Congrats!!
Thank you very much! I really appreciate your words <3
Wow cool game! I liked the artwork and the twist at the end was interesting. Great work!
Thank you for your kind words!
I thought it would be just surfing game. Well made.
I’m glad you were surprised it wasn’t just that. Thanks for playing it!
Very cool game! Definitely wasn't expecting that twist! Really good job!
Thank you very much!!
Haha definitely was not expecting that ending. Nice job, fun game!
Ooooh we’re curious, which one did you get? 👀
i cant beat the cave minigame
Oh noo… D: is it because of a bug or the difficulty? Your feedback is appreciated!
the dificulty, the waves are impossible to escape
Absolutely enjoyed this one! Ggorgeous visuals, great audio, and a genuinely funny little story running through it. The text was a bit on the long side for me, but honestly that didn’t take away much. Overall one of the strongest games I’ve tested so far.
Aaah thank you for your kind words! We’ll add an auto-skip button as a quality feature for the future!
I really love the art! The minigames could be a bit longer (I liked them and would like to keep playing). But overall a cool visual novel.
Thank you for the feedback! We’ll work to make an infinite mode for the surf minigame, stay tuned!
Very good! The artstyle is charming and the game itself is really fun!
Thank you so much! We’re really glad you think so :D
I'm in love with the music! And you all did such a great job with character design as well :)
Thank you we’re glad you liked it!
I expected this to be a simple dodging game but it turned out to have so much awesome lore!! All I want from this is some more content! It's great
Thank you for appreciating the story! Glad it was enjoyable ^^
