posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Prototype began streaming the opening movie on Tuesday for it, Visual Art's, and Key's Switch version of the Summer Pockets visual novel game. The companies had announced in February that the Switch version will launch digitally and physically in Japan on June 20.
The game originally launched for PC in June 2018 in Japan. The companies have also released the game on smartphones.
The game takes place in a rural district of a certain isolated island, and the game tells the story of "one nostalgic summer."
Jun Maeda (Kanon, AIR, Clannad, Angel Beats!) is credited with the original concept. Na-Ga (Angel Beats!, Little Busters!, Charlotte), Tsubasu Izumi (Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka, Mashiroiro Symphony - The color of lovers), and Yūnon Nagayama (Angel Beats!) are credited with providing the original illustrations.
Yū Niijima (Koi x Shin Ai Kanojo, Majo Koi Nikki), Kai (Clannad, Rewrite, Harmonia), and Hasama (Tokyo Babel, Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi.) wrote the scenario. Maeda composed the music with Shinji Orito (Angel Beats! Harmonia), Donmaru (planetarian, Little Busters!, Giniro, Haruka), and Tomohiro Takeshita (planetarian, Angel Beats!, Harmonia).
