I can't recommend Surf Sandox. I've played a lot of True Surf on ios, and I'm always looking forward to trying new surfing games. There isn't enough here to engage you, even for a "cozy/chill" game. Everything feels underdeveloped. I absolutely hate writing a bad review, and I know how hard good people work on these indie games and wish the devs all the best on their next hopefully more developed project. Pros: - Great visual design (caused me to check it out). - The free scalability of the window is a nice feature. - Good sound (realistic relaxing surf). - Good price (It isn't worth the time though unfortunately.) Cons: - Above all. The surfing isn't very engaging or enjoyable. Movement and interacting with the wave is incredibly limited and almost immediately uninteresting. - The mirror image left and right shore break is unnatural, distracting, and unnecessary. - Nothing to progress or incentivize you to advance. Nothing to unlock or increase challenge. - The screen cropping of the environment feels constricting.
Chill and challenging. Getting it right feels awesome. Not getting it right feels awesome. No High scores. No progression. Just the next wave. Gnarly.

Have only played a little bit (played the demo a good bit)…not many “surf” games on Steam, but this one is about as chill as it can get if you want to kill some time. Would be nice if they added a music option…listening to the waves and nature is cool and all, but the option for some 8/16bit music would be epic.
I made my character black and he immediately drowned when he fell off the board. 10/10 realism
AWESOME GAME! I’ve been waiting for this for months glad it’s finally out. Extremely relaxing, great sounds and visuals! You could keep this on all day and relax to the sounds of the waves if anything, hop in to catch a wave and go back to relaxing
A great game to just sit down and decompress would love to have some bioluminescence during the night.
Awesome game, I love the graphics and colour choice. It would be nice to have a slightly larger/longer map, it does feel a bit cramped, but that's also just my take. Very fun game, well worth the money.
Super relaxing and captures the essence of surfing in a simple, yet beautiful, pixel art style
