VS/Studio built Among the Waves around a woman carrying a divine child through Alatiri-M, a fortress that is the last refuge for the last humans on Earth. The combat loop runs on the power the child grants: manipulating gravity, changing the player's own mass, and switching waveforms to unlock new abilities. The fortress is a labyrinth of marauders, madmen, armed groups, runaway combat drones, and beings called "Born," and the goal is the legendary "Gate of Birth" hidden deep inside it.

The demo covers 7 active abilities, about 10 passive abilities and consumable items, exploration of 20 locations, 2 bosses and 6 enemy types, and encounters with 4 characters. The full game is scheduled for Steam release on PC in 2027.
