This update brings the demo closer than ever to the full experience we want to deliver: a horror romance visual novel with emotional weight, tough choices, and stories that stay with you.

But we need your help to finish it.

WHY KICKSTARTER?

Because we’ve taken Bad Summer as far as we can on our own. We’re a sister duo building this game from our tiny apartment, doing nearly everything ourselves: writing, music, coding, marketing, and more. And we’ve had help from friends and collaborators who believed in us, and in this game.

This Kickstarter isn’t just about funding a game. It’s about finishing a story that people have already fallen in love with and making sure every member of our team gets the recognition and compensation they deserve.

If you’ve played the demo, if you’ve seen the art, if a single line or moment stuck with you, please consider backing Bad Summer. Or even just following the campaign. Every bit of support matters right now.
