RPGM - Completed - That Summer – Hannah’s Summer Vacation [v1.0.1] [七十七]

This game is frustrating to say the least. Has quite a bit of potential but then falls quite flat.

Pros:
For an event finder game -> the toggle for run speed is a nice touch.
The art when on the upside is done well. (however is very inconsistent and the art on the downside is quite bad -> at least the new version they stopped her standing picture looking like a complete derp).

The pathway story progressions are ok and straightforward on how to unlock. But because it's so linear, gets a bit bland. Still I'd say the pathways get a little more on the positive side for at least being there.

Uncensored

Cons:
Biggest one is the world interaction for an exhibitionist game is done not well.
- The highlighted exhibitionist scene finders in the open world have too many parameters to meet; just get a single still image event that is somewhat inconsequential. And for all of these events to be dangling in front you everywhere while you're walking around trying to grind the stats is rather disappointing. Just hide the ones that you can't interact with in the outfit worn and have some indicator if your lavicious/exhibitionist level isn't enough; Otherwise its just a click on every potential event just to find you don't have the right outfit/stats and feel like its not worth bothering clicking on them at all.

- There are also no spontaneous interactions with random NPCs when exposed (And in general a significant lack of NPCs) making the world feel quite empty.

Menu QOL is done poorly: having to manually go back to the equipment and select the outfit can be remedied with 2 common events. Current state is just tedious.

Balance is done quite badly as well. Balance for stats is abysmal especially around levelling. Balance for certain things like body paint doesn't fit the theme.

Having a high number of outfits is good and bad at the same time. Whilst it's nice to have the pick of the litter with the outfits, they don't really mean much in terms of story as the CG half the time doesn't correlate with what is worn, and you can just buy majority of the outfits instantly. The other issue as mentioned earlier is just there's too many restrictions on accessing the overworld events as you're almost always going to be wearing the wrong outfit.

Overall:
Honestly this game feels like it's just a concept rather than an actual game. Concept being all the story lines and events all mapped out; but with an overarching story completely removed along with any semblance of balance/pacing. Would've done well if they did anything like introduce new areas one by one with an introductory event rather than everything available instantly and make the player run around cluelessly looking for places to increase stats for events that don't really mean much; all to just miss 90% of the content of the rest of the game while solo progressing story lines one at a time. 2.5 stars is what I'd give; the dev at least looks like they're trying to add lots of love to the game; but the game just feels like it's missing a lot of things.

[v1.0.1]

I genuinely think some artist got scammed into this.

Wander around and either make poorly informed decision to do something or have something happen by itself.

The art is good, lacking more than one slide per event, but good.
The gameplay is generic, lacking, nonsensical and annoying.
The translation is odd and menus are lazy.

Well i played the game after seeing the reviews and GOD its a bad gameplay. Its just a Grinding game not even the rewards are good (H scenes) It was a nice concept but very bad ejecuted. The desings are meh and the story just bad. soo
Not recomendable bad wank bad game 3/10 (Sorry for my bad english)

Feels like a work in progress game...
Has a lot of potential.
The author thought about a lot of minor details for the begin of the game, and they kinda make a lot of sense, and thus, make the game quite entertaining...
But, when you go through it... high and specific requirements, with no diverse ways to acquire...
It's not even a limited game, it actually has A LOT of content, and some of them are pretty fine.
The art is not the best, but it's good enough to keep interested...
I kinda understant that the premise of the game is to give some challenging while engaging the girl to roll the events...
But it's honestly bad written.
She managed to do a lot of things with her father, and then with his brother, and then things just go wild all of sudden...
Feels too dumb to lock so much content behind boring grinding requirements.

That Summer - Hannah's Summer Vacation is the same "exhibitionism" game you've played a dozen times but with worse game mechanics than usual.

The gameplay is the real dagger to the heart with this one. There's essentially nothing in the way of a tutorial and no hints, tips or quest log to get you started. While RPGM isn't so wildly complicated as to make this scenario unplayable, it still means that wandering aimlessly is the only way to figure out how things play.

To save your time, you've got 60 days to wander around and do summer stuff. This is mostly part time jobs, going to summer school and exhibitionism. Doing most anything boosts your stats and you need stats to get into certain jobs. Doing a thing two or three times will unlock a scene each time until you reach an ending after five or six scenes. Yeah, that's in the realm of 10-18 repetitions per storyline... Watching an ending sets you back to the beginning of the 60 day timer, maintains your stats, and unlocks the recollection room, which does have an unlock switch. Apparently it doesn't apply to the exhibitionism scenes though.

While I kinda like the art, the grind just isn't worth it to get all the scenes. Each story line involves the MC being taken advantage of since apparently she lacks the proper nudity and sex taboos because her father and brother have been molesting her for ages already. This is naturally pretty fucked up as the game is deliberately vague as to her age at the start of the game, much less earlier.

As if all this irritation wasn't enough, the game is also pretty buggy when it comes to unlocking clothes. You need certain outfits to see certain scenes and certain outfits are either in a hidden store or bugged as to the unlock conditions.

Overall, don't waste your time. While the art might be interesting, slogging through a mostly broken game with lots of grind and terrible gameplay just isn't worth it. There's about a half dozen games just like this one that do it better.

Fun little games but are very grindy, but if you love that kind of stuff, then this will be up your alley. This game is very dark, and I mean very dark. Don't let the colorful and upbeat music fool you. The main protagonist is a klutzy, naive young girl who is very nympho. But she let everyone walk over and step on her like a doormat. Anyway, I think it is a pretty chill game you can sink into for a couple of hours, that's just my opinion. Btw the music is pretty sick not going to lies.

P.S. This game has so many costumes and I love it!

This game gets 5 stars for one simple reason:

The main character looks like an attractive human and not like pedo bait or some mutated monstrum. It's sad how rare this is.

Other than that, it's a solid game. No battles. Tons of scenes (with varying quality) and decent pacing.

nice system

In the vast realm of hentai gaming, where fantasy and desire intertwine, this game stands out like a rare gem in a sea of ordinary stones. From the moment I clicked play, I was whisked away into a world where every fantasy I've ever harbored found its manifestation. The artistry alone is enough to leave one spellbound, with intricately detailed characters and lush, vibrant backgrounds that draw you into their seductive embrace.

But beyond its visual allure lies a gameplay experience that's equally captivating. The mechanics are finely tuned to keep you engaged, whether you're navigating complex dialogue trees to forge intimate connections with the characters or engaging in heart-pounding action sequences that leave you breathless with excitement.

And oh, the stories! Each narrative thread is woven with care, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the deepest recesses of human desire. Whether you're drawn to tales of forbidden romance or lustful encounters that defy all reason, there's something here to satisfy every appetite.

In short, this game is a masterpiece of erotic storytelling, a tantalizing journey into the realms of passion and pleasure that will leave you yearning for more with every click of the mouse.

i gonna to make a short review or a description of this game : this is more like a prototype or a proof of concept , this is not a finished game at any level , lack of quality of life , no direction whatsoever , any thing must be manually activated by the player , all this game has is asset all around the place , , but the "asset" is good that why i rate this 3 star , playing this is more like a play test section , not even a demo

Athia describes this game perfectly. The lack of information is serious, I couldn't even find the second shop. Personally, I didn't think it was much of a grind. and as far as corruption is concerned, it is non-existent. a good idea, a very bad implementation

Very good sandbox exploration game, it's maybe a 4.5 but I cannot give half stars.

The whole point of the game is to find stuff to do during the summer (mainly summer jobs) you do the "normal" activity for a bit, then you get progressing scenes. you can keep track of where you are in the various quests with the rope just outside your house.

The countdown does not really matter, after you get an ending you restart the summer with all progress and items.

There are also various items you can find and buy around the map, and some hidden with short quests.

Kink so far are pretty nice, manly noncon.

Pregnancy is only endgame.

This game is honestly very close to being great imo, but there's a few things that really hold it back. First off though I will say, there are a lot of scenes that look pretty good. If you're into exhibitionism as well, this game has a lot of content for you. Additionally, I think that while the 60 day limit is kinda tight, you can certainly still see a lot of scenes in the first playthrough.

The main problem is the lack of direction, some may like the freedom of a sandbox game like this but the problem is, many times it can feel like you are wasting your time grinding for no reason. At the start of the game it is really hard to level any of the "skills" as many of the jobs and events that do level those skills are locked behind very high requirements. (The easiest way I've found is to run around every location and find chests that give either money or items to increase skills.)
Additionally, there is almost no information given about how an event effects time. Most jobs in the day set the time to night, and night jobs skip to the next day after, but in some cases day jobs or daytime events will skip straight to the next day, and be especially careful once you level your exhibitionism enough, as the jail event will skip 5 whole days.
There's also a decent amount of bugs and seemingly unreachable content, with many scenes not activating despite having the correct clothing or high enough stats. Some spots also have hidden stat requirements (eg the sex shop in the northern town) and you really just have to keep checking to see if you've met them.

Overall, I think this game could be fantastic if someone could mod in some QOL changes, but for now it just requires a bit too much gameplay optimization.

I have a LOT of gripes with this game, although it's not entirely irredeemable.

I'll start with the nice things : I like the aspect of the girl that has been almost totally desensitized to naughty things because of her background. The corruption isn't realy corruption, more like acceptance or lack of fuck to give that rise. The art is also pretty cool, at least i like it, although there are a LOT of scenes that are made of 80% text and 20% images. Just having something to look at while reading the text would be nice, even if it's just a standing regular image.

Now, for the fun part. This game crushing flaws.

First : an incredible lack of information.

This game revolve a lot around clothing to trigger quite a lot of scenes, or to to the same activity multiple time. Where do you find these clothes ? NO CLUE ! There's two shops i found that sold clothes, and idk if there's more than that. One of them is locked behind a lascivious check (or if there's any way to get to it without that, i didn't find it), and the other one look like a a two square wide 10 square long building on the extreme edge of a map with the entrance being at the north of said map. It looks like a warehouse you can't enter at first. It's a clothing shop. As i said before, jobs scenes are also hidden behind path progress. Which is fine. But how many time should i work to trigger the next scene ? Your guess is as good as mine. Sometime you only need to work once. Sometimes after 5 days of work, it doesn't trigger. You'd then assume there's no more scenes, but there still are ! You just had no way of knowing !

Second : a GRINDFEST.

All of the jobs can level a stat, and not by much. And for some reason using a save editor couldn't speed up the process. Luckily, there are equipments that allow to boost almost all stats. There's just one i couldn't level easily enough and didn't find an equipment to boost, being Eloquence. It is, by default, you lowest stat. I don't even remember if you start at 1 or at 0, but to just unlock the neighbor tutoring, you'll have to grind eloquence for several days. And so far, all the jobs and activities i found that level it does by only 1 unit each time. It is atrocious. Of course, as you get more stats, more activities open, but the beginning is painstakingly slow to build up.
Money shouldn't be a problem, outside of the different jobs i found quite a few chests that had 50k dollars inside.

Third : The 60 days time limit.

It does sound like a lot ! IT'S NOT !
All activities aside from a few and the exhibitionism spots will eat your entire day and release you at night. There, there's a few activities open that will eat your night. You just did two activities and are down one whole day. Some activities will eat both your day and your night. Count in the stats you have to farm and grind, and you're left with surprisingly little time. I am currently down to 6 days left, and i don't think i've started more than a third of the activities. I don't know if there's a NG+ that allows you to start anew with your stats, but given the QoL aspect of this game, i highly doubt it. Luckily, it seems that you can modify the amount of days left using a save editor.
EDIT : Triggering an ending does just reset the days counter. You keep everything, including route progress. Therefore, that last one is a non-issue.

I could also go on about the poor quality of life as said above, but i think i've said enough about this game.
