Summer in Heat is a 3D animated simulator by Miconisomi, built in Unity. It is set in a small rural town where residential streets, fields, and distant mountains meet. You play a man who returns there during midsummer and works as a live-in janitor at his old school during vacation. There he reunites with his niece, who moved after her parents divorced, and her older childhood friend, who stays at school for club activities. Their old closeness has changed, and the story follows how he grows closer to them.
The current release is v1.02, dated July 28, 2025, for Windows. It is available in machine-translated English and Japanese, and it is uncensored. Development is ongoing, as this build includes a changelog. The update added a panty-related interaction and adjusted semen-related visual effects. It also fixed some motion and camera look-at behavior during intimate scenes, improved tail and pigtail handling, preserved settings after restart, added search by name or ID in online custom load, corrected debug mode entry, refined UI behavior, and added a debug option to set all characters to dangerous days. An earlier update improved offline custom character management and message-window display.

One of the best animation games ever. Needs a lot of add-ons and customization though. And gangbangs and other positions. I think that is only fair for a game that has reached quite an audience. I hope the developers can…
