So now be ready for New Year's Eve Heat

I'll take any heat I can get from Eve!

 

[BadassDolphin]

Purple and black are her colors, so she'll probably just kick you in them.

That's my fetish actually sooo

Status Update #56


Good evening, night, morning or day!

This week we... well, we did pretty much the same as last week. Editing, dialogue proof-reading, and post-processing renders. New renders were also made for the last scene, and some supplementary renders for other scenes.

There is a semi big branch right at the end of the update and we're thinking about the best way to put it together. We think a lot of people will be met with greyed out options again, while others will finally get to act on a certain choice they made earlier in the game. We know the paths for this scene, and a couple others will also converge a bit later. But the context will be very different.

Aside from that, we also fixed some in-game icons and bugged out links, and reworked some hover buttons. Great success. Generally making the code slightly more efficient and future proof. There were also a couple of new clothing morphs for Bree made.

Next week, some ❤ for the Android version.

Update when

Lately we've been answering a lot of "update when?" questions again so we figured we might as well confirm it publicly as well. Yes, Summer Heat will be updating this year. Or in other words, before GTA6.

For the anxious ones, at this point in the development cycle we recommend checking the title of the status updates. If there's no release date in the title, there won't be one in the post either. The status updates are more about keeping you in the loop about what's happening on a weekly basis, and not a magic hat to pull dates out of. When the fabled release date is here, it'll be announced very clearly in the title. Until then, the TBA remains.

We'd love to give you a date, and we almost did a while ago. It would've been Inaccurate however, and now you'd be reading about delays instead. We're not fans of delays or excuses, which is why you won't see either in our status updates (we hope). This comes with the Unknown debuff instead, but is that any better? We personally prefer guaranteed dates and no guesstimates, but we understand that everyone has their own perspective.

In the future we can also condense our yapping into bullet points again, if that's preferred. Like in the good old days. Opinions are welcome, as always.

Other news

The monthly special render poll will be up this weekend. This time, the theme will be Halloween. Kate was the winning lady for September and won't be in the poll, but who else would you like to see win this month? And would you like to see the side girls included? Below you can find the previous two Halloween renders. The pumpkins will also be returning.

This year or before late May 2026 are really two different estimations

I don't know why my post talking about how I love the renders in this game was deleted with my pics of Cassandra... I wasn't even talking about any other games at all and didn't even mention any LOL... Ridiculous power tripping but okay I'll repost my beloved pics of Cassandra... Hope to see more of her soon...

Thanks Wolf! Appreciate the update as always man.

It's good that you caught that. They did say OR.

 

[John 7]

Hi everyone, is it worth to play the game at its current state? Or do you think it's better to wait for more updates to have a richer story experience?

Yes, the game is worth every minute , isn't a waste of time .The next update will be released by the end of the year.

 

[3J1E]

Yes, the game is worth every minute , isn't a waste of time .The next update will be released by the end of the year.

I realise that this has probably been asked before and no-one will know the answer for definite except the devs, but from playing the story so far does it feel like the story is at a point where actual scenes with the main LIs are at least close?

I haven't played the game, although it's been on my list to try and possibly support for what feels like forever! But I prefer to wait until at least there is the start of relationships and sex scenes, particularly with bree and eve. Have no interest at all in content with side girls, just want to be able to run solo routes with the main LIs and at least get to the point of a relationship starting in my first play through.

It would be nice if that's in the next update, but there are plenty of other games to play if it's going to be another couple of years!

seriously very hard to tell , but in current state i'd say there's nothing for you still at this point

Thanks for that. I know there's nothing with the main LIs right now, but with an update coming up soonish I was just trying to get a feel for whether there was likely to be when that is released. I know it's impossible to tell for sure, but sometimes the story gives an idea of whether these things are close or not!

Will just keep an eye on it and see i guess, it'll get there one day hopefully even if it's not with this update!

 

[maxthruster]

I think it's pretty likely we'll start getting to sex scenes soon enough, the writing is already on the wall for a few of the relationships... But "soon enough" also means like, within 3 years due to dev times. Unfortunate, but that's just how it is.

 

[jaaaximus]

Eve will be old when I finally get a chance. That's it.

 

[jaaaximus]

But that makes me wonder something... if they're still creating renders of the game today, how many images will this update have?

The dev confirmed it's over 3k. My guess is between 3k5 and 4k

The Update at above 90%

 

[Sony676]

By now it’s become pretty obvious that they completely overestimated themselves with that “95% done” statement from about two months ago. This latest report makes that clear at the latest. While I’d still like to see them at least throw out some numbers again, things are at least starting to look a bit clearer — even if it’s still somewhat unsatisfying.

I think it’s purely tactical that they’re no longer sharing numbers (like how many renders or animations there are), because doing so would either fuel more negativity — “WHAT? That’s all?” — or they might actually be able to create a surprise effect with the finished update in terms of numbers. Of course, that’s all pure speculation.

It definitely doesn’t read like pure polishing work anymore after that supposed 95% mark (where the update is basically done with only 5% polishing/testing left). They probably assumed they were “finished,” looked at the overall build, and realized it felt too underwhelming or incomplete. So they went back to creating more content/renders, etc. That would be my hypothesis for this somewhat drawn-out “chewing gum effect.”

And honestly? Even though the wait is long, I’d be willing to accept it — at least if they’ve learned from last year’s underwhelming update and are now putting in extra work to deliver something more satisfying this time around.

If that is the case, I do wish they'd be straight up about it. While I'm sure a lot of people would be pissed about it, the transparency would be appreciated.
