Midsummer Studios

Happy Midsummer and Midsummer Week for us! The name came from @SolomonJake's Scandinavian roots, but we have embraced the idea of rebirth, optimism for the future, community, celebration and a welcoming spot for all. Yesterday's celebration prep in pics; now we take a week off!

"The larger, difficult part of this, which is also exciting, is finding a way to design the systems like other games I’ve made — with high stakes and interesting choices and making sure the player understand the results of their choices." @SolomonJake bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

"The player is the first person that needs to be entertained by their story, so getting players to surprise themselves is something that I've really thought about in our design." said @SolomonJake gamespot.com/articles/how-x…

"...we’re focused on story. Specifically the story that the players write themselves just by playing the game." - says @SolomonJake, CEO/Creative Director at Midsummer Studios, to Variety. variety.com/2024/gaming/ne…

"Our players will write meaningful stories just by playing" - @SolomonJake ign.com/articles/forme…

Midsummer Studios is thrilled to reveal our existence! We are building a story-focused life simulation in Md. We will be quiet as we build and iterate, but keep tabs on us as we will share in-progress work here as we approach Early Access. See you soon! midsummerstudios.com/news/studio-an…
