Good, but could be better
This game is really well done, seeing the difficulty of creating this app in OpenGL. As a fellow developer I must give you props for that. As a surfer, I have to say it could be a better. One thing I think you should change is the sea floor. When you wipe out its about six inches underwater. If you made it a few feet deeper it would make a huge improvement to the gameplay, or you could even do the animation that happens when you wipe out in the tube. The way you have to pump up and down the face of the wave is really cool, and feels somewhat natural to me, but a tutorial would help for beginners. Also it would be really cool if you could add a bit of foam to the top of a wave when you go for a snap. I love how you can get Ina barrel, but it feels a bit to low compared to real Surfing. Overall, you did a great job, I hope to see an update in the future.
