About Evo\Wave

Evo\Wave is a 3D platformer featuring the little AI named LAI-6 who learns new programs and skills to restore the world! Travel through levels inspired by the different graphical eras of the video game, repair the Evo\Core and gain new skills to fight the evil MagnaVex!

A 3D Collectathon evolving through different periods of video game history! The more you progress through the game while repairing the Evo\Core. The more you will experience wildly different graphics styles from the history of video games!

A retro OutRun graphic style inspired by the '80s with Synthwave music reminiscent of Miami 80! A bold yet limited color palette permeates the landscape, purple skies and teal vegetation are the norm in this virtual world. Awesome music will follow you wherever you go, making you feel like you’re cruising through the neon sunset.
  • Unlock skills like double jumping and the power of gliding through the air that will allow you to navigate through the levels and move around in new and fun ways!
  • Collect as many collectibles as you can, from Evo\Core peripherals and Components or Facts Sheets that will give you historical anecdotes about video games!
  • Watch out for glitches and corrupted enemies that MagnaVex will send to counter your progress!

Evo\Wave is a game designed to be accessible to all age groups, both young and old, and aims to bring some LGBTQ+ representation with LAI-6, our young non-binary artificial intelligence. In addition, a lot of attention has been directed towards visual accessibility by reducing elements like flashing lights and low contrast that would prevent some people from enjoying Evo\Wave!

[h1] [b]APPROACHING BOSS BATTLE...[/b] Evolve stages into more complex graphics and fight with evil Magnavex. Maps are semi open thus allowing for some degree of freedom. Simple tasks to be done on each stage, like helping finding hidden pages, annihilating bad guys or searching for someone's friend. Character movement is a bit stiff, but overall as freebie I guess it's ok. [/h1]

Campy, a little janky, but free. Wall grab and clearly circled jump shadow are nice touches, but the loss of momentum with the spin jump is irksome and robs some of the fun of the movement. Still, it's free 99.

Solid little platformer.
Not recommended May 14, 2026
The platforming is actually quite good, with lots of fun abilities to use. What I didn't care for was everything else. Levels feel too big, the visuals get progressively uglier, and the actual objectives can feel tedious. Writing is bad, but that didn't affect my opinion of it too much, as I don't play platformers much for their plots.

A really original, fun game with a cool concept and entertaining gameplay. It's overall very easy but still provides a tiny challenge. I had played this game once years ago and decided to pick it up again, but this time with a completionist approach, unlocking all achievements and collecting everything. Took about 6 hours of gameplay. I'd say Evo\Wave is actually a fantastic game to get into completionism. The lore isn't really interesting, but I like its fourth wall-breaking aspect. The game's evolution is neat: with each level, the graphics change and you can gain new abilities that ever so slightly complexify the gameplay but require essentially no learning curve. Overall this is a really nice indie title, definitely recommend.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy
