WaveBeasts is an early arcade jet ski stunt racer set across an obstacle-filled ocean course.

This build is a free-roam playable prototype, designed to give a feel for the core concepts: racing lines, stunt ramps, boost rings, coins, hazards, duck dives, and freestyle tricks.

Explore the course, follow the buoy-marked route, hit the high-vis ramps, collect pickups, and experiment with the movement across docks, wrecks, islands, and city-backed waterways.

The menu/front-end is still incomplete, so the game currently drops straight into the playable course.
