# Wavedash

> Wavedash is a gaming platform where people play high-quality games instantly in their web browser. No downloads, no installs, no launcher — click a link and you're playing. Games run locally on your device using WebAssembly and WebGPU, delivering native-level performance with zero input lag. Wavedash is free to use for players.

Wavedash is first and foremost a consumer gaming platform — think of it as a new game store and social platform, like Steam, but everything runs in your browser. Players browse, buy, and play games at wavedash.com without ever downloading or installing anything. Multiplayer lobbies are shareable links: paste one in Discord and friends join instantly.

Games on Wavedash are not cloud-streamed. They execute locally on the player's device through WebAssembly and WebGPU, meaning there is no server-side rendering, no bandwidth-dependent quality, and no input latency beyond what a native app would have. This is a key distinction from services like GeForce NOW or Xbox Cloud Gaming.

Wavedash works on any device with a modern browser — desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), mobile (iOS, Android), and more. No special hardware is required.
