The remake’s road to 1.0.0

Four builds in, here is the plan from 0.4.0 to the 1.0.0 parity release, and what is being built right now.

Summertime Saga: Realistic Remake has its own version line. It counts up through 0.x, and 1.0.0 is reserved for the release that reaches story and feature parity with the original game’s 21.0.0 baseline. If the original game moves past 21.0.0, the extra content joins this roadmap and the remake keeps counting.

This is the roadmap as it appears in the game’s Extra page in v0.3.5.

Done

  • 0.1.0: Foundation Prototype. Photorealistic prologue, the first playable morning through picking up Erik, free-roam rooms, the HUD tutorial, the animated town map, save/load, settings and the menu redesign.
  • 0.2.0: The First Day. The recovered first-day storyline, from arriving at school through Mia, Roxxy, Dexter, Principal Smith, Annie, Judith, athletics and French class to the walk home with Erik.
  • 0.3.0: Core Game Systems. Player naming, quest tracking, inventory, money, stats, phone messages, day progression and reliable event-state tracking.

In development

  • 0.4.0: Home and School Expansion. Complete explorable home and school spaces, classroom events, locker progression, garden work and early academic objectives.

Planned

  • 0.5.0: Living Town. Unlock the wider town, connect all map destinations, add time-based location states and introduce daily NPC schedules.
  • 0.6.0: Character Routes, Wave One. The first complete character arcs around home, school and the closest early-game relationships.
  • 0.7.0: Character Routes, Wave Two. The remaining school and town routes, with their locations, events, choices and progression.
  • 0.8.0: Full Story Integration. Every recreated route connected into one continuous campaign, including economy balance, unlock order and cross-route continuity.
  • 0.9.0: Beta and Polish. Close the remaining gaps, then accessibility, performance, save compatibility, regression testing and a final content review.
  • 1.0.0: Realistic Remake. Feature and story parity with the 21.0.0 baseline, in one photorealistic remake.

The remake is, and will stay, free.
