A tiny building game about beautiful lived-in houses. No rules or restrictions, just pure creativity.
Runs well on modern hardware.

It's simple, chill and no stress but far too limited with not enough to play with. I was waiting for the dev to add more backgrounds/ items but that just never happened? I'd say it's worth a buck at most cause' of that, or a bit more depending on how much you feel you'd get out of 'creative limitation'. Seems the developer has a habit of abandoning his games quickly after releasing them.
[i]If you ever wished you could just freeze time on a late August afternoon, where the only thing that matters is the way the sun sparkles through the leaves of a tree, SUMMERHOUSE is your way to go.[/i] The gameplay is based on pure relaxation. No rules, no timers, no "wrong" ways to build. You simply pick from a [u]variety of beautifully crafted blocks[/u] like windows, doors, plants, or little street details to create small cozy houses or natural sceneries in [u]different landscapes from seaside to mountains to suburbs[/u]. SUMMERHOUSE is all about the vibe. The way a bicycle leans against a wall, a cat peacefully sleeps on a windowsill, or washed laundry flutters above a mediterranean house roof. It's a [u]wholesome experience[/u] that entertained me with nothing less than the beauty of being creative. [b]SUMMERHOUSE is a little masterpiece in minimalistic cozy builders. For its small price of 5€, it's [u]absolutely worth a buy[/u] for some playful hours of pure creativity.[/b] https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3295372971 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3304335222 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3294956819
