As requested by the organizers, we will be sharing updates at the end of each day, moreover, you can follow our every step along the way on GitHub. ⬅️

We hope this will serve as a learning opportunity or inspiration to You, nevertheless it provides us with a great point of self-awareness and reflection. 🧘‍♀️

Our story:
We are a fairly young game studio consisting of four members:
William Fernsby (Art), Agnes Lindberg (Programming), Vince B. (Narrative Design, Project Management, Community Management) and emBLAZE (Music & Sound Effects). Any guesses on why we chose W.A.V.E as our name? 🌊😉

Our journey started at university with our thesis project, which we continued to work on after graduation. After three years of active development, with the support of many amazing people ✨, we released our first game, RAFTERRRS - A tide-changing party game, which became quite a success. 🥳 (Go check it out if you haven't yet!!)

Currently, most of our time is spent on maintaining and updating our game. However, our restless passion and buzzing creativity has recently been so overflowing, that we agreed to find a way and pour it into a new project. 🌱 Soon after, just as if our hearts' desire were listened to, the organizers of WIP Jam 2025 reached out to us, and there was no hesitation in accepting their invitation. 🤩 Fun fact, this is our first game jam as a team, and we are fired up for this novel challenge! ❤️‍🔥

Is it just us or do you also feel the wave of excitement? 😃 Follow along during this week!
