I kept spinning out, being unable to dictate precisely where I wanted to steer towards. This makes controlling the boat itself incredibly difficult.

You don’t move the stick in combination with where you want to go, but instead accelerate your boat and immediately get off to an insanely high top speed. On top of a skateboard, you actively control the movement of the skateboard via the character in Wave Break, the game controls like Mario Kart. I’ll admit, it’s been years since I’ve played a skateboarding game, but even so Wave Break immediately felt wrong. There’s barely any time to get used to its weird mechanics. But from the word go, something just felt incredibly off about Wave Break. On paper, this setup sounds like a great twist on the Tony Hawk-style skateboarding gameplay. Perform enough tricks and you build up a meter that enables you to slow down time for a short period and unload your clip onto opponents.

Meanwhile, you are also playing against other players and are able to take them out by shooting them with your gun. Wave Break is touted by the developers as a Skateboating game, where you perform tricks, jumps, stunts, grinds, and twists to score points and complete objectives. Now to be fair, I probably should have done a little bit more digging before I decided to jump on board. Unfortunately, the only thing that broke by the end was me. So I fired up the engine, stepped into my boat, and sailed straight off into Wave Break.

My curiosity was peaked, especially when flashes of gunfights on boats were also shown. During a performance from the band Weezer, this weird ‘90s neon colored Wave Race-like game popped up in the background.
