Prague
July 20th 1945
The city of Prague was under siege, ravaged by war.
Buildings were falling, churches were burning, and everything was to be washed away forever.
A painter lived there, isolated from the outside world. The worse the terrors of war became, the more the artist obsessively painted beautiful landscapes as a contrast to the evil he had witnessed. One night, a mysterious figure appeared in the house seemingly out of nowhere. The stranger walked slowly around the room, inspecting the paintings. He then sat down in front of the artist; to offer him a deal.
The chance to enter one of his own creations, far away and free of war. But he would have to find his way back out before midnight, or else his soul would become trapped in the canvas forever. Feeling alone, on the edge of madness, terrorized by the scent of death creeping in from the streets, the artist shook the mysterious man's hand, accepting the deal.
A few moments later, the house was empty.

2020 has been a tough year for everyone out there, and I have often felt overwhelmed too.
At the same time, the past year was perhaps one of the most important of my life, just as like a phoenix rising from its ashes, after years spent working in the video game industry as a formerly 3D artist, I finally had the opportunity to fulfill my dream of developing my own game.
It was a challenge as difficult as exciting, working hard 24/7 to develop something as dreamlike as I had imagined it, with a small team of 3 who dedicated all their time, their efforts and their passion to help me get accomplish this achievement.
In Summertime Madness you will find beautiful landscapes, intricate puzzles, dreamy creatures and a lot of hidden secrets, but more than anything else, I really hope you to find a glimpse of the very same passion, love and happiness we've put into this adventure while working on it.
