About Summer Islands

Create almost infinite numbers of maps with different seeds. One island, several or the Summer Islands mode. From small 100x100 maps up to 1500x1500 maps. From high mountains or just sand islands. Everybody finds his small island in the wide ocean or in the big archipelagos.

Build cabins, villas or expensive hotels directly on the beach or in the mountains. When a building is finished, tourists can come by boat or plane. The tourists want to be preserved. Build bars, discos, golf courses, supermarkets and many other buildings that are popular with tourists and will make you rich as the owner.
Buy new buildings from a wide range of building types. From houses and hotels to restaurants, stores, parks attractions etc. Here you can distinguish between mass tourists and luxury tourists. Buildings with luxury tourists earn you more money, but are expensive and have a lower capacity. Also note that mass tourists and luxury tourists have different preferences as to which buildings are nearby. Borrow money or pay off your debts. Go out and advertise, or take out insurance. Check if your buildings are doing well and you can raise the rent. Hire consultants to protect you from sabotage, for example. Or would you rather unlock more sabotage? That is entirely up to you.

Unfortunately there are also natural disasters that can destroy your buildings. Whether tornado, earthquake or meteorite, everything is possible.
In quiet times the competition comes from your enemy and expands over your land. Maybe there are some sabotage possibilities! In the Map Editor you can not only create your perfect map. You can also fill it with events. Which buildings should be unlocked under which conditions. A match where you cannot build roads or there is no minimap? You want natural disasters to occur under certain conditions at a certain place? Try it out!

New Review: So I had a lovely discussion with the developer, and went through a play of the campaign with him alongside. He showed me a few things that were not immediately obvious in the playthrough, and were not taken into account on the tutorial video in the game. With this new information, I was able to complete the campaign mission. He also has taken onboard a lot of feedback (30 points I believe were mentioned) so there may be a new update coming soon with this feedback to hopefully give other players a boost in getting the most out of this game. When it 'clicks' and comes together, it makes sense to me, and hopefully it will do to you as well. I am pleased about the constructive discussion we had, and the steps forward me as a player have taken, and he as a developer has taken from this. I look forward to a bright summer future. Original Review: **Seven attempts, seven bankruptcies** I cannot complete the first campaign mission, despite having played tycoon and management games since 1994. I am 39 years old and have considerable experience with the genre, including Theme Park, Theme Hospital, RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 and 2, Planet Coaster 1 and 2, Parkitect, Planet Zoo, Hol…

There is a lack of "information" about how to play the game (especially, about what to consider in detail and what means what), or probably I just don't get it. And there are some issues as well. But the developer implemented my resolution very quick after my request (it was unplayable without), and I want to support indie developers, so I giva a positive anyway.

Please reimplement an option to adjust the terrain by mousewheel like in the original game. Performance has been cut to 60 fps, why? Please don't change too much in comparison to the original game. Apart from this, nice remake.

A great and fun game, especially for those nostalgic for Holiday Islands like myself. Unfortunately the game becomes unplayable when getting close to 10000 tourists. Until the performance issues are solved, I cannot recommend this game.

This might be a personal problem, but the tutorial for this game makes it extremely difficult to figure out how to make any given building profitable. I keep building stuff next to each other that is supposed to have synergy, and yet everything costs exponentially more than it makes. I don't really understand how the proximity of shops and attractions to hotels is supposed to improve their earnings, which seems like a tutorial problem. Whatever I'm supposed to be doing, I'm clearly doing it wrong, but the tutorial and various graphics UIs don't make it any clearer what I should be doing instead.
