Borrowed Summer screenshot

Borrowed Summer is in early alpha. It's a Visual Novel personal project currently in development as part of my love for Japanese anime and gaming culture.

Premise

The story follows a boy who falls in love with a transfer student, only to realize that she begins to disappear after they open a cursed object hidden inside an old shed. As he tries to save her, he investigates the school’s history, the shed, and the ghost stories surrounding it, uncovering disturbing events buried in the past.

At the same time, his three closest friends from the Paranormal Activity Research Club begin to think he is losing his mind, because none of them remember her at all. He will try to save her at all costs... but can he do it?

Currently in Early Alpha
Only 3 key scenes rushed and stitched together.
4 if you count the ending.
Around 15 minutes of gameplay.
Approximately 600 lines written so far.
Estimated final scope: 2,000+ lines and roughly 1 hour of gameplay.

This version is still rough in structure and presentation, with AI-generated placeholder backgrounds and characters while the final environment and character art are still in production by real humans. So far the team counts with me, a 3D artist, an illustrator and 5 Brazilian Voice actors. Even so, the current build already reflects the intended tone, emotional direction, and narrative focus of the project.

You are free to play it.
