Dear users,

The HOMEWAVE demo is now available! 🏠✨

HOMEWAVE is a cozy game about decorating virtual rooms inside a fictional nostalgic operating system, chatting with clients, taking freelance jobs, and exploring a warmer, more personal version of the internet.

This demo includes a lot of improvements and new content compared to our recent playtest. Here’s what changed:

Improved narrative We have rewritten most of the dialogues to make the characters feel more vivid, distinct, and memorable.

The main story has also been expanded. The mysterious hacker storyline now continues a little further in the demo.

Room mood system Decorating is now not only about placing the required objects.

Every item has its own mood, and each room has an overall mood you need to match with the client’s needs. To understand what they really want, pay attention not only to the order itself, but also to your conversations with them.

Desktop widgets HOMEWAVE OS now has new widgets for your desktop:

  • Weather widget with matching ambient sounds

  • Stickers for your workspace

  • Drawing widget where you can doodle inside the OS

A little more coziness for your digital corner.

More items We have added a lot of new furniture, decorations, and other objects for room customization.

More styles, more details, more ways to make every room feel personal.

Other improvements The demo also includes:

  • Interface improvements and polish

  • New music in the HOMEWAVE OS player

  • Optional CRT monitor effect

  • Portfolio section on EasyWork, where you can view your completed orders

  • Various small fixes and quality of life improvements

Thank you to everyone who joined the playtest, shared feedback, reported bugs, or simply spent time inside HOMEWAVE OS.

Your feedback helped us make the demo warmer, clearer, and more expressive.

Thank you for using HOMEWAVE OS. Make yourself at home <3
