Summer Blue Steam Page Goes Live: Four Heroines, Hand-Drawn Animation

Summer Blue opens its Steam page: wash up on a fading island, work bar shifts, cook and date four heroines, all in fully hand-drawn frame-by-frame animation.

Summer Blue, a romance adventure developed by WorkNite Games and published by Alice Publication, now has its Steam store page up and ready for wishlists.

An accident leaves you stranded on a small island that has seen better days. Between part-time work, cooking and everyday hangouts, you get to know four very different heroines and slowly piece together why the sea that once glowed a brilliant blue has gone dull.

A Sea That Lost Its Glow and the Island It Left Behind

People used to travel a long way just to see the water around this island shine blue. Once that glow faded, the crowds stopped coming and the island started to slip into decline. That is the place you land in by accident, and where you first cross paths with the heroines.

Each girl is tied to a different corner of island life: the guesthouse, the bar, the dive shop, and the island itself. Every one of them brings her own personality and history, and the more time you spend with her, the more of her hidden side comes out. Each has a full route of her own to follow.

Over one summer you go from first meeting to everyday companionship, and the bonds you build along the way could be what helps the island find its light again.

Island Life Built Around Romance

At its core Summer Blue is a dating sim. You close the distance with each heroine through casual conversations, cooking and dates, learning what makes her tick until a summer romance that belongs to just the two of you takes shape.

There is a light life-sim loop on top of that. You earn money with part-time work such as cleaning rooms at the guesthouse, mixing drinks at the bar and minding the shop counter, then plan out each day however you like, spending the slow island afternoons with whichever girl has caught your eye.
