Summer Shattering Guide

by SiegH

I made this quick guide cause the game can be a bit confusing, due to the randomness of it. I'll go
through basic functions as well as how to initiate every route and get the ending you want. I
recommend MTLing your game since it would help you figure things out better if you don't read
Kanji. (MTL was pretty problematic for me as some lines broke the game, I'm not sure if its a
universal problem)

I made this quick guide cause the game can be a bit confusing, due to the randomness of it. I'll go
through basic functions as well as how to initiate every route and get the ending you want. I

Kanji. (MTL was pretty problematic for me as some lines broke the game, I'm not sure if its a
universal problem)

For starters lemme explain the mechanics real quick. You play as Keita a guy who moved out
of his childhood village in the past, now back in town, moves in with his childhood friend
Ryoka and sister Saki.
The point of the game is getting your stats up via collecting random stuff (mostly bugs), doing
jobs or working out, interacting with things while being with Ryoka and overall being an
oblivious cowardly cuck.
The MC doesn't have any H-scenes, other than the "happy" ending (I think, I'm not interested
in that route). You have some tools that you can use via button presses:
Q - will bring up your phone in which you can either call Ryoka, who might answer and give
you clues on what she's doing, or look up lewd threads on a forum (mostly about Ryoka), you
can only use your phone 3x/day unless you buy chargers.
W - will bring up the calendar, which you'll use to check the day or upcoming events.
T - will fast forward the time 1 hour/press.
A - will send you back in front of your house.
C - will close Ryoka's diary which you use to watch h-scenes. (the game doesn't mention this)
Lastly, you will trigger event, sometimes at random, when going back home, or moving
outside. You will also trigger skippable events on certain days when you wake up. Neither of
these two types of events have H-scenes.

Getting the h-scenes: there are two characters that get into these kind of situations, Ryoka
and Saki. To get the scenes you will first have to start up a route (or all of them if you wish)
by interacting with exclamation marks (!) while Ryoka is with you and generally fulfilling some
conditions. The game relies a lot on random chance, so even after you initiated a route, the
rate in which Ryoka will interact with the "villains" is mostly random, in fact if you don't get
the one you wanted, try loading and skipping past to the next time of day. If you want to be
sure you get the scenes you want, try to ignore all but one route, aka don't interact with the
exclamation marks (not sure if it works, haven't tried yet). As time goes by Ryoka keeps
moving from location to location. You can see her icon on the overworld map, which means
she's in that location and is potentially together with another guy. hunt down these
locations, and if you catch her with a pink heart then you'll get a scene added to the diary
and getting all of them will get you their ending. I won't go along every step of the way with
each of them since its pretty obvious and mostly random, the clues are obvious and follow
her icon on the map until you get all the necessary scenes. Also if you see anything new in
the environment, you might want to interact with it, often together with Ryoka.
Saki scenes: Saki is the sister character and you will see her scenes as soon as she commits
them (pink heart appears). She has 3 routes and all 3 can be completed in the same game, as
they don't need the game to end to complete. To watch them the MC has to be alone, as
Ryoka realizes what's going on and doesn't let you get see them to get traumatized. Also,
these routes are not random, they are done on specific dates, which can be found on a
posted note in the kitchen.

The bar (Monday and Saturday): to start this route you need to visit the bar (house in
the second roe that has a blue banner) and interact with Saki (!) on days she's working
twice (1 x 2 days). The next time you enter the bar on a day she's working she will be in
the large empty room surrounded by a bunch of men, just interact with the door and
you'll initiate the scene. Do it a few more days until it gets completed. On the last event
the door will be locked so you need to head to the (!) in the bathroom to climb up and
peak on her from above. Overall 4 H-scenes.
The store (Tuesday and Thursday): to start this route you just need to visit the shop (last
house on the upper left, not the tent) on a day she's working, get the old man what he
asks (buy them from shops in one of the towns) and wait until 2 o'clock so that the two
of them go up stair and the pink heart appears. Overall 3 H-scenes.
The shelter (Wednesday and Sunday): to start this route you need to go into the city and
talk to the homeless guy that's next to Saki with the (!) on him. Like before you're gonna
have to do this on two days.
After that there will be a scene the next time you visit them outside, after which the
heart will keep appearing on the tent to the right. Lastly, you can also find a photo left
outside the homeless shelter of the event you see on the 3rd day of the event. Overall 4
H-scenes.
Ryoka scenes: Ryoka is the childhood friend of the MC and they're both obviously in love with
each other, but the MC being the cowardly little moron that he is, she gets picked up by 5 of
the possible villain characters, eventually getting together with them which will reflect the
ending you get. Once you trigger the last event with a villain, you won't be able to complete
the other routes, so its 1 route per game and while any ending will open the recollection
room in the main menu, it will only unlock the scenes for the route you completed, no matter
how much you've unlocked the others, also the Saki scenes will be available there once
viewed.

First of all to get the "happy" true love ending you need to stop her from interacting
with any of the guys, which means stay away from the (!) and spend all your time with
her, don't leave her alone.
This will lead to him confessing to her on the last day event and they get together.
To get the normal ending, you just need to play the game without completing any of the
routes with the other characters. Basically she can fuck all of them up to the very end, if
you don't trigger the last event, it should be fine. In this one same thing happens, but
the MC stays a cowardly little shit and doesn't confess to her so they each head their
separate way. No H-scene in this one.
Oyama: A dirty old man who lives in the village in a house just bellow yours. To start his
route you need to first talk to him with Ryoka. He should have a (!) on him. Next you
need to talk to the village chief in bad that Saki works at, which is to the left of Oyama's
hut. He should also have a (!) on him. After that you should occasionally see Ryoka and
Oyama together next to his hut, or a (!) on the ground close to the hut which will trigger
a scene of Ryoka going into the old man's hut.
Masaru: A freckled little whimp who works at the onsen. To start his route you need to
talk to him with Ryoka in the onsen with a (!) on him, which is bellow Oyama's hut, next
to a house under construction. Next, go to school and overhear some girls talking about
bullying (not sure if you need Ryoka present). Then just go home and it will unlock a
memory scene. After that you will trigger one scene with them in the onsen, after which
their scenes will mostly happen to the bottom right exit where there will be a fenced off
courtyard with a shack.
Nobuo: A spoiled rich kid with a bad attitude who lives in the mansion to the upper right
exit, but usally hangs out in a tent just before the left exit, by the river. To start his route
you'll need to go to the liquor store (house left of the bar) with Ryoka and talk to the two
men arguing (this might need to be on a specific day, just keep visiting it until you see
the (!) on the men). Next you need to visit Nobuo at his mansion. Lastly, talk to Nobuo
who should be next to the stairs with a pink heart on him, on Wednesdays and Fridays.
He will want you to make a bet, take him up on the offer and you'll play cards. If you
lose, he'll take Ryoka into his tent and you're left outside, a kid blocking your way to
them.
Daisuke: A loud, dumb meat head pervert. He works at the video rental shop in the
town, second building in the upper rowe, you can't miss it. To initiate his route you need
to work part time in said shop, on Tuesday or Thursday, twice. After that you'll start
seeing the heart symbol when him and Royka hang out on the other side of the river
back in the village and later on you'll see the heart on the floor in the town, where you'll
run into Ryoka, in a hurry to meet Daisuke at his house.
The vagrant: A dirty homeless pervert. He has a name as I recall, but I can't remember it
and the game generally refers to him as the vagrant anyway. You can find him in the city
(have to take the train) right under the prep school building, sitting on a bench. He lives
just bellow in the homeless shelter inside the left tent. To initiate his route you need to
talk to him and then enter the prep school to get a brochure. After which you should go
home and Ryoka will find out about the prep school. Next you just need to go to school
and study by yourself (there's a sparkling chair in the bottom left room). Since she can't
rely on your useless ass, Ryoka will head over to the prep school and the homeless guy
will take notice. After that the route is triggered and when you see Ryoka's icon in the
city go there and you'll see the vagrant having a heart on him even though Ryoka is
inside the prep school. After a while you will see her follow the man inside his tent.
Later on there will be story weathers and the train won't work so you need to go to the
city on foot.
Then just go inside the darkness towards their tent and if you call her you'll see her
phone light up the tent, or straight up see their siluetes fucking. Towards the end the
homeless man moves into the village into the empty house in the bottom left, where
you'll see the heart appear.
Yasui: A dark skinned playboy classmate. You can generally find him at school in the
classroom. To initate his route you need to talk to him with Ryoka when he has a (!) on
him. The school is closed on Sunday and at night.
Next you need to go into town and talk to a wimpy boy next to the closes store, under
the video rental store (you might need Ryoka with you for this one as well). Then head
into the city and to the right if you go through the narrow alley to the left you'll see the
two black guys have moved away and you can enter the club. In the club you'll see a (!)
on a girl, talk to her and an event will happen where you're drugged and made
incriminating evidence of, which Yasui will use to blackmail Ryoka with. After that you
will see Ryoka's icon appear in the city so go there and right as you end you'll see the
karaoke bar on the upper left. Interacting with the door inside will hint at a "couple"
being inside. After this the heart will appear on the karaoke bar a few more times, and
later on they'll have a scene in the classroom as well.
Most of the routes have special events that are unskippable (but the H-scene can be) and if
you catch Ryoka and one of the guys, you'll actually see the scene this time. For example a
Festival held on August 25. Also, the game will inform you when there are paths of no return
including the very last day before the ending, which contains no special events, but the next
day you'll be going on a field trip which will result in one of the many ending.

Also, as a precaution be sure to earn money and get your points up via workout, jobs or
picking things up, I'm not sure if they're required for the events to happen, but better safe
than sorry.
