Rather of trying to explain or lead the player with words, Space Waves allows the experience do the talking right from the get-go. As if floating on an unseen current of energy, the little wave you're controlling hurtles through jagged geometric tunnels. Your whole attention is required at all times; the slightest disruption in rhythm might lead to disaster. Players are compelled to fully immerse themselves in the flow of Space Waves by the peculiar attraction of this suffocating quiet.

As you go farther into Space Waves, its challenging but fair character becomes more apparent. Every player's downfall is due to their own mistakes since the game never tricks them with luck but instead constantly throws them a curveball. The regularity underlying the apparently random routes becomes more apparent with each repetition. Like performing a musical composition with precisely timed notes, the ebb and flow of the waves are no longer automatic reactions but rather a planned series of motions. Playing game requires not only physical skill but also the capacity to keep cool under fire.
