Summer Vacation - A gay visual novel
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Mathieu is about to start college. But first, one last summer at his uncle's house will change everything. What begins as an ordinary vacation becomes a journey of self-discovery — exploring identity, desire, and the messy reality of first relationships.
Every decision shapes Mathieu's journey. Navigate complex relationships where your choices might have real consequences.
Summer Vacation is my first visual novel — a passion project about storytelling, identity, and that exciting age when anything feels possible. I hope you'll enjoy the journey as much as I enjoy creating it.

weird, will need more info on discord / bug ! Thanks
when update?^^
now :)
goodjob thanks!
Dude, how do you make a character as interesting as Team and not put him alongside the main characters of the story as the protagonist's romantic interest? He would fit into the story playing the role of a streamer or even an adult content creator and falling in love with the protagonist. I found Fabian's jealousy when Tim flirted with the protagonist at the party in front of him interesting. He would be a love rival for Fabian. It would spice up the story, it would be a game of seduction. Many may disagree, but am I the only one who thinks Tim fits better than Carlos and Blondie in the story? I just think it's a waste of Tim being a secondary character; he could be developed to be one of the main characters like Peter. Because Peter would be Bicurious, and Tim a content creator who ends up liking the protagonist.
Hey, thanks for sharing. I don't know yet what I will do with Tim :). You know, the magic is as it is still in dev, I can rewrite or create new things, even in "the past" ^^ We'll see ^^
I've seen 0.9.10.... wtf, if you are making Jin supernatural, I've lost all respect for this VN. There is enough going on to draw people into the story, why dilute the narrative with that fantasy bullshit?!
Hey, I forgot to answer. It's not like Jin being supernatural, he's just a nice analyst haha. And everyone dreams so. Don't worry, he won't change into a "I-don't-know-what" :p
won't there be a new update soon?
Well I wish this was updated on here.
It would be nice, since 0.7 is s19, and they just finished s26. you can find 0.8.3 which is s21 elsewhere. We've been waiting for a year for a public update, it's getting tedious
This has quickly become my number 1 interactive novel. The level of exploration and fun is great. I follow the game on Patreon where the game gets most of its updates/communication from the developer. I'm so excited for whats coming next. I hope this project continues on and on. Nicely done developer! :D
When new update can't wait new game
Good story, I want an update
I can't download this game in android, I hope you will notice this,I have 3 phones but none of them have installed this game,I hope you will fix it
I downloaded yesterday and it worked. I think the apk is unusually slow at the "staging app" stage but it does work.
Why i can't open the APK file for the Android version? Tried download it again but the same thing happened 🥲
Mostly of the characters are gay, your wish is like finding a needle in the hay.
is there a guide or a walkthrough
Hello, not yet no :)
Is S24 public yet?
already asked...
when is S24 becoming public?
not yet, it's too early:)
how about now? since s26 is now done, and there hasn't been a public update in nearly a year
With his massive🍆 I think the MC should
If you choose to romance Carlos MC tops him in the cabin
Can you tell me if there is a guide for the game?
Hello, no there is no guide available for the moment :)
Obrigado pelo esclarecimento
Just finished it. Nice work! Hoped to see more of Peter!!
thank you 🥰
Cool game, I'm waiting for the update. Regards.Danse alveys. xd
thanks :)
hey, maybe some others already asked for, but when is the next update gonna be published?
I want to know as well TvT Fabian is waiting for me TvT
Mostly some of the partial updates are posted early on his Patreon but publicly update was mostly took a year to release ur lucky if he posted 2 public update in a year
He was giving us the public updates every 3-4 months but for whatever reason he has decided to take a longer time since S21. Not sure why cause this is a great story and I for one would like to see more.
Its due to the fact I am also slower on Patreon because of my job ^^ I do my best guys :)
Is Uncle Steve finally coming to their Uni to get some action with MC? The hot prof needs some action too hehehe❤️🔥
for sure need some prof actions!
I've played through the game - I Love it & Fabien too! 🤭
Hey are you not doing the public updates anymore? You usually post them every 3-4 months but it has been over 7 months now and I read on discord that S22 came out on patron back in February. Just wondering cause I really like this story and would like to see more.
Hello,
I will do :) I didn't have enough content to update it (as I didn't update a lot on patreon neither). Thanks ^^
is there a walkthrough, I have OCD so I want the walkthrough.
Is there any new scene for Uncle Steven or are there any route only for him? Can we get the professor route? (MC's dad kinda hot too🤭)
Hm, I've seen downloads for S22 elsewhere, but... I think that's supposed to be the Patreon exclusive version, and it's been leaked? S19 is still the current public version, right?
I downloaded the game. How do I update it??
It doesn't have a self-updater. Downloading the latest version is the way to update to the latest version.
I need the update!!!!!
did you find out how to update the game?
*pokes you with a stick* you still alive?
I am having an issue on my MAC opening the files. I have tried on Safari, Chrome, and Firefox to download and open the game files. I keep getting an error message saying that the files can not be verified not to have malware and forces me to send to the trash. Any thoughts?
Yes. Go to systems settings. I pressed the ? button at the top. It explained what to do
*Careful, Contains Spoiler*
Just gotta let you know, I love the story so so much! *cries in excitement* and I also love the art style <3
The characters development, the dilemma, the conflicts. Everything is wonderful. Even the possible straight romance is kind of refreshing (even though it's highly unlikely I will choose this path xD), as such, it's more than welcome. Makes me feel like I really have the option, and knowing that there are many different paths you can take is nice.
I chose Fab and the romance is definitely worth all the wait. It makes it more anticipated and exciting!
Only thing, Matt's interested in Steve is one thing but Steve's also interested in Matt is a bit shocking to me (even if just one time thing)
Anyway, I'll be waiting eagerly for the next update. I'm hoping for more drama and conflict, and obviously more adult scene and room to optionally explore and develop various kinks :'D
Cheers!
I hope we can romance the guy with the red hair from the bathroom stall Tim. Tim and Uncle peter are my 2 favorites <3
Great Game. Great story. Went with Fabien route because damn, he's gorgeous and that first uninterrupted nsfw scene was so good.
Trying other routes now, Is the peter route still in development?
Have in portuguese Brazil?
I really enjoyed it. Can't wait for the next update.
It's been a while since the last update
It's like this game looked into my soul because I literally can't resist Carlos, he's like my dream man. I had a blast playing!
does anyone know if there is a guide, or if there is even need for one?
I am not sure if there is a guide out there but I don't think it is necessary as you can save at the choices and if you don't like the result of that choice then you can reload the save. Also there is no right or wrong choice cause they just give you different scenes and sometimes take you down a different path so you can play multiple playthroughs and make different choices to see where it takes you.
Just finished my first play through. What an absolutely fun and enjoyable game to play! Well done on creating a storyline that is both immersive and sexy. Absolutely loved it. I played with Fabian as my primary interest the first time around. Look forward to playing again with a focus more on Carlos second time around. Fantastic job and I cannot wait to see how you develop the game further!
