In Space Waves, the space is constructed as an infinite maze of light. The rapid color changes of neon give the impression that you are moving through several levels of space. Although not very intricate, the visual effects are sufficient to give the gameplay a lively and dynamic feel. The quick tempo and fluid gestures provide an almost mesmerizing effect. Everything around you gradually disappears as you enter a state of extreme focus, leaving just the ship and the waves in front of you. The game is very addicting because of this exact situation. The best incentive in Space Waves is the sense of fluid control; ostentatious prizes are not necessary.

Space Waves is unique in part because of its delicately crafted difficulty. The difficulty levels range from waves that are very simple to master to routes that need almost flawless accuracy. Without feeling rushed, players are free to test themselves to the best of their abilities. Every level you finish is similar to a turning point in the development of your control abilities. You start to notice that you make fewer errors and respond more quickly and confidently. This provides a powerful incentive to keep investigating the next, more challenging waves. Space Waves deftly turns competition into a conversation about your own boundaries.
