    Insane. I don't remember playing a game with this enthusiasm and concentration without any lewd scene. I was so much dreadful at the end, coz I simply didn't wanted the game to end. Looking forward to more updates.

    In the year and a half I've been on this site...and the 70-80 games I've played through, I have never seen something of this magnitude before that has left me a bit speechless.

    The cinematic transitions and sequences in this game amazed me as well as the animations and level of details in each render. Most games, even with decent animation, only do it for a few frames or a few seconds. What we get here are essentially short films that almost make you forget that this is meant to be a game.

    Aside from that, there is a remarkable amount of depth and plot development behind every major character we're introduced to and the writing, albeit with a few bad errors, is rooted in realism and even had me deep in thought

    There just isn't enough to say about it. I thought CoBD, BaDIK, or Nadia slammed the door shut on other games being able to reach their level but this has pushed that door wide open

    Version Ch.3 Final

    Last played this in the first release I think ... this game looks so great and especially the mood-shot animations are gorgeous.

    Same for all the girls. This game has probably the highest density of hot girls I have ever seen. And the major ones have some nice character building and development.

    And that is just the visuals - the story is really great and balances sad and funny tones extremely well.

    I dont like to give 5 stars for unfinished games, but I cant find any obvious problems or things to criticize.

    A pretty nice surprise. Besides some minor exceptions, the characters have a great personality development. The biggest example was me at start hating Bella and finding Victoria so damn annoying, but after some time I ended up liking them quite a lot. Also the models are quite nice.

    My only con is that some ambient lights could be brighter, but nothing that doesn't allow to play (and that barely happens). Also, while the mixed locker was neat, I think it should still have a bit better explanation or even show some level of ressentment by some students. I mean, I know it is a porn game but... yeah. If the goal of the game is to show charisma and emotions, then that fact can't be put aside on a mixed locker imo. Unless it was made on purpose to work as a contrast to the game, I dunno.

    Anyway, the character development, and the great work in showing their emotions is the biggest point of the game. The dev made a great work in making a player engaged to the story, and enforces you to have a much bigger conection to the characters before you see the titties. Some slow burn games tend to fail because they lack substance or reason to mantain the player hooked with flow of the story. This one has a quite excepcional show of emotions, changes of pace and atmosphere, that usually go along and fit pretty well with the scene/story.

    This is what you should expect from a slow pace game, and even if you don't love slow pace games, you should still give it a try. Looking forward for the next releases, and definitely worth of patron.

    Stunning.
    The art is amazing. The lighting, staging, models are truly spectacular.
    The characters are genuine and unique.
    The story and writing are tremendous.
    The use of animations and music for setting a mood and storytelling is brilliant.

    I hope other visual novel artists see this work and see what is possible. I am eager to see where this project goes.

    A masterpiece. I don't know how to describe this game in any other way.

    The cg is beautiful, the animations are beautiful, the story is nice, the songs are nice... this game is a solid 10!

    Just do yourself a favor and play Summer's Gone.

    Really, this is probably the best game I've ever played in this site. And I've played a few. The plot is just awesome. Maybe in the first minutes it looks like we have so much drama to come through, but everything will become more and more interesting in the future. The characters are really deep, awesome renders, good music... and the dialogues are just brilliant. Really fucking brilliant. Some made me laugh a lot, others just feel on point. And yeah, there's no sex escene but man... I don't care if games are so good. Congratulations to the devs, awesome work

    Summer's Gone has the potential to become one of the all time greats, and that's not an exaggeration in the slightest.

    Storyline is super unique and interesting (for the most part).
    Models are drop-dead gorgeous, environment and graphics are fantastic.
    But what really sets this game apart from the 'competition' are characters.

    Every character, other than looking freakin' fantastic is different and special in it's own way. It's insane how easy it is to immerse yourself into the game's universe.

    One moment I just want to
    You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
    And that's just a small part of it all.

    There's still no lewd content per se, but the constant teasing is super hot and really well thought out, which is probably what makes the game so good (hope it continues in this manner).

    I truly hope Ocean will continue telling the story his way, without any interference (e.g. Patreon) as this so far has been pure perfection.

    Speaking of which, I rarely consider donating money (living in a third world country and all that), but I'll definitely show my appreciation and support over the following months as this game really blew my mind.

    Cheers and stay safe!

    This game is my favorite AVN!

    I have played many, but none as addictive as this, you just want more and more!

    The game is story focused, so it's big plus for those who enjoys the story of an AVN game.

    All the girls are amazing in their own way, some have more screentime then other, but that will change as the story continues.

    I'm not that intereststed in the sex scenes and I don't play it for them, they are just bonus to the story.

    The slow build with your favorite girl will be well worth it when the time comes.

    If you play and enjoy the story of an AVN and not just for the sex scenes, then you will love this game!

    Con: grotesque boobs and asses, some weird haircuts.

    I don't know about modern day America, but in my college years (at least in European countries like DDR) none of the college girls had such mammoth boobs and asses. Most of the girls were actually skinny, having normal or small boobs and buttocks. So I really wish the devs were more realistic and had better taste in human beauty.

    As well, the second haircut of the MC is a bit too much. Not just gay-like but not realistic at all.

    Pro: the story is really good.

    A bit depressive beginning turns into healing; with beautiful manifestations of friendship and affection.

    Very good writing. There are many choices and visual details.

    Many characters, all quite interesting. Girls are so pretty that even those boobs and asses can be tolerated.

    I don't usually write review, but the amazing story telling is something else here

    I player countless games on this websites, and i'm not saying the best game there is, but it is defensively up there

    Story 10/10 - Amazing story, that draws you in the world, there is no useless dialog that makes you feel as if it's there just to be there, the story telling and getting to the point was perfekt.

    Animation 8/10 - Even though there is no sex scenes, but man the animation is beautifully done, can't wait to see it action.

    Graphics 9/10 - All the characters are beautifully done, there is some generic designs, but all the characters are so unique in personality that it doesn't really matter.

    Overall, 10/10 game that I will be keeping an eye on for future developments, all the luck ♥.

    Seriously one of the best games that I have ever played. Obviously there aren't any sex scenes yet, but honestly, that is not a negative. Summer's Gone has such a captivating story that immerses you right into that world. It's so good that cheap sex scenes, that come easy to the protagonist like in most games on this site, would honestly bring the quality of the story and game down.

    The art is flawless. Every character is beautiful in their own unique way. Can't say enough good things about the art. Pretty damn close to a perfect game. I can only think of two negatives, and they are pretty nit-picky.

    The newest update had some grammatical errors. Nothing too bad... I'm guessing the creator's first language isn't English. It wasn't anything that took you out of the story, and I only noticed it in the new update, not the first two. And lastly, there was a large hiatus in between the last two updates. I hope that was just a one time thing, because this game is way too good to get abandoned.

    Absolutely fantastic, one of the best in a while.
    The character design is great. Girls are well proportioned. Story is believable and the variety of girls should cover everyone's liking.
    At the very first glance, you have much apprehension about this game, but once you start to play it, you will not leave your screen. The renders overall are top notch with amazing animations.
    This game just increased my desire to become a patreon. Seriously though, for such a brilliant masterpiece, we should support the dev. Huge thanks for this game. Keep it up! Can't wait for the next updates.

    Also images in the OP don't quite represent game's quality since the most recent chapter has much better renders.

    (Warning, the following content may contain spoilers)
    I really like this game , the first two chapters are still a bit rough, the graphics in the third chapter are real gem quality, and the story and the characters are very impressivet, i am not an English native so I had to spend 6-7 hours to read every line word by word from Chapter 1 to Chapter 3 , I don't do this often, most of game’s dialogue on this site I'll just 'skip it', and this is why I am also very worried about this game at the same time.
    Because the branch of each character and the consequences of the options you have selected looks will cause very different consequences, and each option has a lot of contentthese to play. This really shows a very big picture--maybe too big.
    Meanwhile , the game lacks very hot scenes, i'm not sure if this will attract enough people to provide support to let the maker to continue to complete this game.
    Finally, let's talk about the story. The overall tone of the story is close to reality, it doesn’t look like will have something like harem in the future , in other words, we have to choose a girl and give up other girls in the end. Or even worse, we have to face NTR. I think I have seen this trend in the game now(e.g. Let Jeff take over MC to protect Nami). I have to say, I am struggling with this. My bottom line for this is that other girls can eventually be with other guys, but please don't describe the sexual scenes between them, please. The reality of the real world is reality enough, maybe we can be 'less reality' in the game word.
    Of course, the above are my personal opinions and suggestions, and you can hold different opinions about this for sure.All in all, I would recommend this game to all players.

    Summer's Gone chapter 3. We waited for this for a whole year and it's so WORTH IT

    Story: 4.5/5 Great plot without cliche. Very unusial MC who definetely got my attention from very first minute. Storytelling is quite usual but it definetely keeps your attetion. Also Good humour is one of bright sides of SG. But some characters are not fully developed for now and i simply can't see their motives.

    Graphics: 6/5 No words just see this screenshots! Great improvent after ch2. Also i want to mention cinematics - they are SO GOOD

    Music: 3/5 Sometimes SG becomes like a simple Ren'Py novel without any sound. Even some ambient could give extra points to atmosphere. BUT music which is in SG now fits perfectly

    Overall Summer's Gone is very good game with potential to become great. Definetely must play if you're not afraid of actual 0 lewd content in game)

    Wow, what can I say. No porn, but what a game. I can say I am very impress. It is one of the best animation I have seen. I think is more about the perfect moment the animation is done at the perfect time. I really like the last animation, went the sister was helping the main character for the date with Bella and after you see Bella mom give a kiss on Bella front head. Just to see both the two scenario was very well done and professional. I give a Big kudo for the story line and the animation.
