The Surfer® is a fun arcade styled surfing game for the PC. Experience the emotion and adrenaline of trying to qualify for the pro tour. The Surfer® challenges gamers to drop in and conquer living, heaving waves.
As an indie shop we love the PS2 era surfing games – Transworld, Sunny Garcia and Kelly Slater – and we wanted to bring that feel back to consoles. So we set out to create a retro art style for the PS3 and then we focused on creating gameplay depth; still building on the past but aiming to be as innovative as we could be in our game design. So after years of R&D our unique Pump control emerged, a method that centers on the player using the physics of the wave to generate speed in order to combo. Head over to the PSN to buy it now.

PS. The original owners of Desura were awesome and if Desura was still alive, we probably would have released a PC version - but as with a lot of tiny developers, we got burnt there too.
Version 2.1 News, content updates and bug fixes. We're moving ahead with more PC and PS3 content whilst wrestling with the daily tech challenges the PS3...
The Surfer Version 1.09 is available from Desura now. Plus new news on further development
Version 1.08 featuring improved Direct X fixes, all cameras are now active as well as a cheat code area for those who just wanna surf.
We've just released Version 1.07 of The Surfer! To celebrate, we'll happily send you a free game manual along with any Version 1.07 of the game purchased...

is this still happening for PS3? I've been waiting my whole life for a PS3 surfing game hahaha
Yep, you bet. Painful, & slow yes, but we're inching our way forward through the Sony TRC and it's coming along. We're aiming for mid next year.
Hi can you please tell me if the surfer is out on PS3 or not? If so where can I get the game from?
Hey,
Sorry for the late reply. We're due this year for sure. It's coming. We work extra jobs aside from development so it's a slog. No dates yet.

Cheers, genuinely appreciated. We're still going hard. Not sure yet as we've got a mountain of work ahead. We will let you know when we can be 100% sure.

I really hope this gets released on the PS3 soon... There aren't enough extreme sports games out there anymore. It seems as if the only games that do come out are first person shooters. I will ask of one thing though, please ensure that there is a split screen mode so you can play with friends while they're at your house. This is another thing the gaming industry seems to forget, playing with friends extends further than online. What happened to being able to stop by a friends house and run some coolboarders or 1080 head to head?
Hey guest,
Sorry for the delayed response. Yep, definitely doing this, already running on ps3 now.
