Summer In The City
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Help Summer Summerson, an eighteen year old girl from the middle of nowhere, to achieve her dream of becoming a professional photographer. After participating and winning an online photography contest, Summer receives an offer for a scholarship at one of the most prestigious art colleges in the country.
But in order to follow her dream she will have to leave her rural home and move into the big city, a new environment she never experienced before. Help Summer tackle that exciting new environment while meeting it's inhabitants.
While not all but many of the adult visual novels play with the theme of "corrupting the innocent", this game will take a different route. The characters in this story will embrace their sexuality, and create a sex positive environment around them aside from dealing with any of the daily struggles. It is somewhat of an adult coming of age story, learning about yourself and your desires and how to come to terms with it. Kinks and fetishes will play a part, so it will get dirty but in a fun and consensual way.
This is an early version of the game and it's getting updated regularly. You may or may not run into bugs and issues. Saved games may become obsolete after installing an update.

just played through whats available so far, and honestly im super impressed really looking forward to the continuation of the story! :)
Happy to hear. I'm currently working hard on update 0.40. Aiming for a release in July. Stay tuned :)
One of the better new vn's out there
Refreshing game. Funny writing, sexy girls.
And you can play a just-girls route.
I love it.
Fantastic game! Has a lot of character in the writing, which I appreciate. Keep up the great work!
Unexpected Disco Elysium references!
This was amazing! I had a lot of fun with the script, the characters, the visuals went from cute to sexy and I loved them, even the UI felt fun. I never once felt bored or like I want to just skip some of the text. I really hope you continue the story, Please please please make more.
Wow, thank you so much! No worries, I'll keep developing the game. Hopefully for a long time, we'll see how it goes. The first content update will be out on May 18th.
Nice noods
That was really well done
This is by far one of the best games I've ever seen on these sites. Keep doing what you're doing you'll only get better.
Wow, what a comment to wake up to. Made my day already!
Can't wait to see what happens next
Wow! That was great! Quite a lot of content for Prologue. Nice renders, nice music, good story, good character development and good choices that make sense and that allow you to develop the story to your liking. Overall: Very good!
OK, here are my first impressions after a couple of hours of playing the game:
- the girls are cute;
- the story is engaging;
- not too many characters, at least for now. I prefer less characters and their evolution rather than too many that we don't see much;
- I liked the funny bits;
- I appreciate that we have the choice to go bisexual or lesbian;
- I hope to see Lily soon ;) ;
- I have to disagree about your writing; I really don't think it's mediocre, on the contrary, it's better than many other games I've played;
- the only 'negative' comment I would give is about that very large pink text box. It takes about 1/4 of the screen and I would like to have a setting which would enable to adjust the transparency
So, all in all, I enjoyed the game so far. I'm gonna replay it with different choices to see more content. Keep up the good work. Eager to see the next update. Thanks.
Thank you so much! Makes me especially happy that you enjoyed the funny bits. Writing jokes that actually land is probably the hardest part of the writing process.
New characters will be introduced eventually, but I also prefer to keep things on a smaller scale for now in order for the characters to be able to "breathe" if you will.
An opacity slider for the textbox will be part of the upcoming content update.
Thanks for the reply, and for the opacity slider.
what languages supportes in game?
Only English as of yet. Will add more as soon as they're available of course.
Can you please add Ukrainian in the future?
I would love to, but it could take a while.
Keep developing the game! Loved it so far!
Happy to hear. I will!
Will there be the option to do a virgin playthrough? To me, engaging in sexual activities in this type of games is only exciting when I have the option to say no. Otherwise, it makes it feel forced. Like I want to CHOOSE to do it.
You will be able to avoid every single sexual interaction, but be aware that this route will have considerably less content. It is still first and foremost an adult visual novel.
Great new game, love it so far!!! keep going
Thank you! Glad you like it. I'm not comfortable enough just yet to give a specific date, but the next content update should arrive soon. Stay tuned.
