About the Game
Waves is a twin-stick shooter that can be played by anyone, but with a high enough skill threshold to keep even the most hardened shooter fan entertained.
Set in a Neo-Cyberspace arena your system is being overrun by bugs, errors, and viruses. The only solution is to kill every rogue process before it kills you!
Clear the arena of enemies while racking up a big fat Combo with swift kills and well-timed Bombs. If it all gets a bit too much you can use your Time Buffer to slow down the action and turn defeat into victory. Players can compete across seven different game modes with online high-score tables and Achievements in their pursuit of twin-stick perfection.

Adictive, simple, but adictive.
REVIEW #111
Waves
----------
I'm a sucker for a twin-stick shooter featuring geometric objects brightly outlined in "neon" light, and Waves is a good example of this concept done very well. It has excellent game controls, eye-catching visuals, a sharp-looking and well-implemented UI, good music, and well-balanced arcade-style gameplay. There's 7 game modes that are all fun, and each one has its own local and online leaderboard. I also love the "British millennial" style of humor in the game's text. Best of all, it's free!
There are spots that Waves could've used more polish. For example, while the controls are good, button mapping for controllers cannot be adjusted, and some menus are seemingly impossible to navigate with just a controller. Also, music loudness is very uneven and varies per track, suggesting that the issue is probably that overall volume wasn't balanced across each music file in the game's data. I also experienced dropout once with the in-game voiceover. However, these are all fairly minor annoyances rather than actual issues that make the game any less enjoyable.
One major thing to note is that Waves is single-player only, which may turn off some people. Personally, I don't mind the lack of multiplayer, as the game's design feels optimized for a solo experience, and I believe that adding multiplayer may not have benefited this title overall.
I'll admit that I was slow to warm up to Waves, but I'm really glad that I did. I have a blast with this game every time that I play it, and now that it's a free Steam title, I find no reason to pass this up if you like twin-stick shooters. I enthusiastically recommend picking up Waves.
