"The Scent of Summer" is a low key asset flip, a bunch of other people's assets assembled badly to make a basic game. Typically this kind of thing is done by amateur developers without sufficient budget, talent and/or staff to do the job of game development professionally. It's then quickly rushed into Steam Direct. And, unsurprisingly, this never results in a product with any quality, interest, or value for gamers. This is a creepy "experience" game where the developer projects his creepy fantasy of having an imaginary girlfriend who's a high schooler. I have to say it's got to be difficult having an imaginary underage girlfriend when you're not allowed within 200m of a school. As a game, though, apart from being a creepy, cringey mess, it isn't really. At best you could pretend it's a walking sim, more likely this is something that got the developer on a watchlist. So the visuals might look almost tolerable at first glance, if mismatched looking in places. But that's only because the "developer" is using other people's assets. When a dev is too lazy or untalented to make their own art, they usually aren't capable of competent coding or game design either. That is exactly …

Игра 'The Scent of Summer' - это глоток свежего воздуха в жанре визуальных новелл. Сюжет, на первый взгляд простой и легкий, оставляет после себя приятное послевкусие летних каникул и новых знакомств. Художественный стиль очаровывает своей мягкостью и пастельными тонами, идеально передавая атмосферу умиротворения и тепла. Саундтрек ненавязчивый и мелодичный, отлично дополняет визуальную составляющую, погружая в мир игры еще глубже. Несмотря на кажущуюся простоту, игра поднимает темы взросления, самоопределения и важности человеческих связей. Персонажи хорошо проработаны и вызывают искреннее сочувствие. Хочется узнать их истории до конца и повлиять на их судьбы. Игровой процесс типичен для жанра, но наличие нескольких концовок добавляет реиграбельности. Однако, иногда выбор между вариантами ответа кажется не совсем очевидным, что может привести к неожиданному результату. В целом, "The Scent of Summer" - это отличная визуальная новелла для тех, кто ищет расслабляющую и трогательную историю с приятной атмосферой. Рекомендую!
