After one year of development, we are proud to finally release Summertime Madness! Working on the development of our debut title was a fantastic yet challenging experience, full of ups and downs, moments when everything went smoothly and others when everything seemed lost.

Working on our independent title was one of our biggest dreams, which we had to forge keeping in mind what was our experience, the tight schedule, the resources and the expectations that each of us had.

It was exciting to see the game grow from a 5 minutes-prototype to a complete experience, filled by the feedback and support of the testers, friends and players who were indispensable in helping us keep the right direction.

Sometimes we managed to do more than we could have hoped for. Other times we have had to compromise and accept our limits without them weighing on the players.

It has been a fantastic journey overall. Despite all what may be the shortcomings and the flaws of any indie game, this last year pushed us to give everything we could, day after day, to give you the best game experience we could.

From now on, I can only hope that for all the players out there, Summertime Madness will be a positive, inspiring and fun experience, capable to open new horizons as it has been for us.

I want to thank in advance all those who will try the game, who will leave us their comments, positive or negative, but who will be supporting us anyway. We will be here to collect your opinions, trying to be always present, helpful and available to anyone who wants to share their gaming experience with us.
