Erisa's Summer v0.4.0 is LIVE!

 


Hi everybody!

As of this moment, v0.4.0 of Erisa's Summer is live and available for download!

Direct download from my itch.io page
Or, use one of the filesharing links from the F95zone page

All day 1 content from the RPGM version of the game has been remastered and added in to the Ren'Py client. Several new scenes have been added and existing scenes have been expanded to enhance gameflow in the new client. A few new scenes may have been added to the end as well...

An Android version has also been added. If it sucks and/or is broken, I do not intend to provide support for it beyond initial build. I apologize, but Android support is above my (free) paygrade. You'll have to start from the beginning to enjoy this update, but I hope you'll download and do so!

Support: As always, this game is released totally and entirely for free! Some folks have offered to support me through a Patreon or download fee in the past, but I'm simply not interested.

Instead, if you want to support and motivate my development efforts, I ask that you identify and donate to an animal shelter or charity of your choice. If you do and would like to share confirmation withme, it will definitely make me feel good and motivate me to keep going! Also, as further incentive, I'll gladly provide a 4K still of any existing game image for any confirmed charitable donation.

Of course, if you just want to play the game, that's fine too! Enjoy! If you do feel like leaving a few words of encouragement or a positive review, that's great too!

Ren'Py Day 1 & 2 - Coming this Friday!

 


That's right, you read correctly! Be prepared to get off your couch and run like Chrissy to grab the latest update to Erisa's Summer this Friday!

This update focuses on unifying the content previously only found in RPG Maker with the content for Day 2 released solely in the Ren'Py format. From now on, everything well be Ren'Py only - with everything all in one place!

The update also sees many (if not most) of the Day 1 images remastered or retouched to enhance quality. There have also been a handful of brand new scenes added to the game (starting with the intro!). These new scenes either add new information or optional information into the natural game flow, or fill the cracks that were previously open world gameplay in RPGM. I know, I know, you're all bummed that you can no longer find out about the stoner bros next door or read the Mitch Hedberg joke about Dufresne Hall, but the experience, I promise you, is both more seamless and better motivated.

I've finished proofreading and technical checks today and am upgrading just a few more renders that didn't pass my quality playtest. I'll continue to spot check and work on a few other odds and ends, but the full Erisa's Summer experience (through Day 2!) will be released on Ren'Py this Friday.

And from there - we head to Day 3!

Thanks as always for your support and enjoy!
