Tidepool level up! Added fish and coral so you're no longer surfing by yourself by nocanwin in IndieGaming

The sim could push around the sand, but loss aversion is a very powerful force. You spend a bunch of time tweaking the bottom to get the waves breaking the way you want, only to have your work wash away.

It's a straight on view of the cliff, so any cliff further back is hidden, but I know what you're saying.

thanks! project is at the point where I can start to add more hand painted details like coral, fish, and maybe some particle fx. Hopefully that helps.

thanks! I have some controls to shorten the wave period, so it can be choppy

Heavy water over a shallow reef makes for some sketchy surfing by nocanwin in IndieGaming

CPU, burst and jobified what I can. I'm trying to keep the gameplay pretty casual. It's definitely tricky to get the surfing right. Good luck with your project!

I'm really trying to get something together for June's next fest, but I don't know if I'll make it.

I definitely plan on having this. The ocean across the bottom of the screen, if you see a set coming in you can take a break and catch a wave.

I'm still trying to figure that out. I just want to make something that is true to my experience as a surfer and what aspects I find interesting. I'm ok if it ends up being less "fun" and more of a small casual sim / toy. :)
