Making Waves teaser
In Making Waves, players experience the passage of time as a fish who interacts with others to influence the future of the lake in which they live. The narrative-driven exploration game was developed by students Luca Arana Cervoni, Rylie Bowman, Atlas Clawthorne, Levi Coffing, Donovan Eidenback, Alyssa Luckritz, and Nate Reininga.
The game was pitched at the annual Game Design Shark Tank event held at the end of fall 2025, a milestone in game design students’ development. The “sharks” selected Making Waves as one of five games that would progress to production in the upcoming semesters to be released in spring 2027.
