A relaxing game where you create cute little PS1 style pixel art houses. It has such a cozy and laid back vibe to it and if you're really creative you can make some beautiful looking scenes (Check out the Steam community screenshots to see).
It isn't deep but it isn't really trying to be and it costs less than an overpriced coffee.
Seriously though you can get coffee from Mcdonald's for like £2 and it's fine.
Anyway, the game be good, go buy.

Perfect for chilling and listening to your favourite music or podcasts.

SUMMERHOUSE is a delightful, calming, experience with no real goal besides to relax while building cute, tiny homes in beautiful pixel-art vistas. Definitely recommend!

This game is very cozy and has a great atmosphere in general. I enjoyed building a few cute houses in all of the different biomes and testing out the different architecture you could create with the pieces. It feels like a pretty unique game style wise which I think was pretty cool.

Overall this game is a good, cheap cozy game. However, I found it to be a bit buggy. I ran into several bugs:
- Background layer shows on foreground
- Main tile menu is off center constantly, sometimes requiring a full restart of the game to reset
- Blocks randomly have a hitbox and prevent placement on top of one another

Generally, I got bored of the game very quickly. I didn't feel like there was enough to do in the game, even though I love sims and cozy games with very little to do. Mostly because it seems very infrequent that you get a new tile to use, so you're stuck for the first several hours with the same small number of tiles to place. Additionally, there's very little depth of field in the game so you cannot make that large of a house, especially upwards, most houses can't be more than 3 stories tall.

Like some reviewers stated, it feels more like a thought experiment/design project than an actual game given how limited the gameplay and options are. Additionally, I found the controls to be extremely frustrating and I had to research what they were in the first place, this should've been in the settings menu. I received this product for free with a review code, so I can't complain too much, but I don't know if I could recommend buying this game when there are so many other cozy, chill games out there.
