The developers studied community feedback on the game's visuals and decided to redo everything.

Earlier this year, Soviet Games studio announced "Everlasting Summer 2". The first promo art of the game caused a wave of criticism. Users drew attention to characteristic details, such as extra fingers, so the project was quickly labeled as "AI-generated garbage".

June arrived, and the Soviet Games team marked the beginning of summer with an important announcement. The developers said that they listened to community feedback and "their internal feelings", so it was decided to completely rework the game's visual style after the announcement.

According to the authors of "Everlasting Summer 2", they found new artists for the job:

Yes, we could have released a demo in spring with the old sprites, but we decided that quality is more important than a couple of extra months. Of course, it's worth admitting that this is a difficult and time-consuming process, and we had to find new artists who needed time to get into the project. Work is now in full swing – and we expect to release a demo version of the game within 6 months (we will try earlier).

Example of the new visuals:

The developers noted that a lot of work has been done since the first announcement:

based on your feedback, we have completely reworked the art style of the game, created new designs for all the main heroines, going through several iterations for each, and are now actively drawing the final versions of the sprites. The game's UI and music are already ready, and new backgrounds are in the works.
