Hera on the Wave

Hera on the Wave is an arcade surfing game about speed, timing and style. Ride the ocean, launch off the crests, pull off tricks high in the air and set a new personal record on every run. HOW TO PLAY The sea is split into three parallel wave lanes. Steer your surfer left and right, switch between the far, middle and near lanes, and watch the water ahead: obstacles and pickups come at you in patterns that get denser and faster as the round goes on. Jump from a wave crest to fly higher and stay in the air longer, which means more time for tricks. AERIAL TRICKS BY SWIPE Every trick has its own gesture. Tap to grab the board, swipe up for a backflip, swipe sideways for a board spin or a tail slide, swipe down for an air kick, or draw a turn for the Super Rodeo. Chain up to three tricks in a single jump, but land them cleanly: a perfect landing keeps your combo growing, while a sloppy one costs you points, and a fall costs you a life. HAZARDS AND PICKUPS - Seagulls, sharks and jellyfish will cost you a life if you hit them. - Turtles act as launchers and throw you high into the air for big trick combos. - Shields protect you from one hit. - Starfish and shells add bonus points. - You have three lives. Lose them all and the run is over. TRICK TASKS During a run you receive trick challenges with a timer, such as a specific trick, a chain of tricks in a set order, or a number of tricks in one jump. Complete them for bonus points and extra lives, but a missed task will cost you. LEVELS Ride past sunlit tropical islands, along an old harbour town at sunset, beside a cliffside Italian coast and out to a rocky Mediterranean fortress. Each level is a timed round with its own scenery, pace and personal best. A short interactive trick school teaches you the controls step by step before your first run.
