Arrow Wave

Arrow Wave is a minimalist, fast-paced action game where you control a wave-shaped arrow as it glides through increasingly difficult terrain. There's no storyline, no levels to unlock, and no upgrades—just you, the arrow, and the relentless challenge of staying alive through narrow corridors and deadly traps.

Gameplay Mechanics

This mechanic is inspired by the “wave mode” from Geometry Dash, requiring constant small adjustments and lightning-fast reactions to weave through tight spaces.

The wave never stops moving forward. Your job is to maintain vertical control with perfect timing—every click or release alters your path through the maze.

Controls

• Hold the left mouse button (or UP arrow) to make the wave rise.
• Release it to make it fall.

Main Challenges

While the game starts off with relatively simple gaps and turns, things escalate quickly. You’ll soon find yourself dodging

• Sharp angles
• Sudden drop-offs
• Tight, zig-zagging passages
• Rapid vertical shifts

Any collision instantly resets your run, pushing you to memorize patterns and refine your rhythm.
