Planet Surf: The Last Wave

The game is ok. Just not my cup of tea. You are supposed to catch certain symbols by using purposely squishy controls and a wave that goes around a tiny planet. I faild in stage 2. It is just hard and no fun. But if you like that type of "no real control"-games, go for it. It works. Even on steam deck.

Planet Surf: The Last Wave is a 2D minimalist 2-button action game where you "surf" on planetoids (by switching between left and right to propel yourself along waves as they come by). It doesn't really "work" at trying to recreate the concept of surfing, no small part of which is the 2D side view that just doesn't work for a "surfing" concept. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. The game features extremely lazy, minimalist "art", of the type you normally expect to see in low effort Flash/browser games and mobile apps. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing. The controls can't be customise…

Charming graphics and music, challenging gameplay.

This game brings something fresh to the table with its surfing theme and arcade-style mechanics reminiscent of classic Olympic games. It's fun, lighthearted, and has a nostalgic charm that makes it stand out. If you're into casual games with a chill vibe, this is definitely worth checking out. It’s a refreshing break from the usual and a pleasant surprise on Steam!

This game is great! I finished the 14 levels in about an hour's time, but only paid $0.59 so well worth the price. A few levels really make you sit down and learn the few mechanics at play, and i had a blast the entire time. I made a video with some of my gameplay https://youtu.be/uxhlmUwDQfo

A reasonably entertaining little game, quite a unique concept
