Summertime Saga is a high quality Dating Sim/Visual Novel game in development!

DarkCookie now has a team helping him deal with development! Which means he can focus on the story, art and design of the game! The more pledges, the more time he can spend adding content to the game instead of working on his day job (freelance, mostly). He plans on doing a lotwith this game by continuing to add quality content and expand the universe (potential story expansions) over time so he's in this for the long run!

The game is free as of now but if you pledge a small monthly fee you can have access to the latest playable version of Summertime Saga, watch DarkCookie work via his video stream, read or post Patreon-only feed on content progression and you get to help him financially which is greatly appreciated.
