Bikini Bay
Build a surf camp, shape the boards, and take your team to a world title.
Bikini Bay is the Grand Prix Story of surfing: a ten-year arc where you build a camp from a shack on the sand into a program that wins world rankings. Scout and develop surfers, craft boards whose shape actually changes how they ride, read the break, and send your team into heats and tour series against four rival AI camps with personalities of their own. Chunky Kairosoft-style pixel art over progression loops that keep paying off.

Dev log //
A surf-camp builder where the board shaping and the business sim had to be made to care about each other. Most of the history is that integration rather than either half on its own.
