I don't usually send asks but I finally played ASE and I nearly stayed up all night because I couldn't stop reading. I love the sweet romance and the art design is fantastic. I would love to read more of Sam and Michelle's story if there is a sequel or dlc.

Hello there! Thank you very much for playing our game! We're glad to hear your feedback. It means a lot to know you enjoyed the romance and art design. We are currently working on a new game and story. It will take place in 1988 in the same universe as A Summer's End. We hope you look forward to it! We will be sharing more updates about it very soon here and on our website.

After all I will be the one to hold you in my arms February 16 is Michelle's birthday. She turns 24 in the year of the rabbit. 🐰🌕
