Summer Sweepers
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
🔞 Warning! This game contains sexual content! Adults only! 🔞
💋Most erotic events in this game are of either NTR or voyeuristic nature.
⭐This is a finished game! v10 is the final major update!
Explore a sunny tropical island with your friends! All missions feature freeform point and click adventure gameplay inside of a minesweeper map. There are many more endings and quests than can be completed in a single playthrough.
[Features]
- Over 100 sexy events.
- 13 illustrated endings.
- 35 quests featuring different puzzles and minesweeper-style boss battles.
- A gallery with all the events and endings that you've seen and hints to find the ones you haven't.
- Unlockable "new game+" boosters to speed up gameplay.
[Controls]
- Left click to move to a tile.
- Right click to flag or unflag a tile.
- Left click to navigate all other game menus.
[Hints]
- Minesweeper is a game that displays the number of "bombs" in eight directions from each tile. Your job is to find the tiles that are safe to pass through.
- Your allies can interact with the location you send them to if it list a character it requires. If there is nothing specific to do at the destination, they will either scout or clear out neighboring tiles depending on the character.
- Use flags to indicate spots you want to avoid. Scouts will prioritize unflagged tiles to check first, while fighters will prioritize flagged tiles instead.
[Future Plans]
This is a finished game. I may release small patches or bug fixes if anything comes up, but I have no plans to work on further major updates at this time.

It might just be me but this game is way too hard.
The amount of time given to you to complete quests/get an ending that isn't the basic one paired with the pretty crappy and useless abilities (especially at the start) as well as a whole heap of other things just make this game incredibly difficult and incredibly boring to play.
The game itself is good, the art is good, the music is good everything about it and its entire concept is fantastic, unique and amazing! And I love that about the game but the difficulty of it completely ruins it for me.
I have tried on countless occasions to get a different ending and so far I have managed to get 2 but no others. The layout of every mission is seemingly random where sometimes it'll be the same one you've done before and then other times it's one you've completely never witnessed leaving you unable to memorize the layout to help you in the future which just puts you at an even further disadvantage.
The money you need to complete other quests is also incredibly painful to come across as the highest I've seen so far is $32 which when you need at least $200 to buy the dress becomes an incredibly long chore with missions that are repetitive and bland and cutscenes that also fall the same way.
The way the text is hidden also makes the game incredibly infuriating as when you find those scenes after working so hard you can't even read what is being said unless you play the game more and use stars on a completely separate run through of the game to reveal it but then you also have the risk of not getting those scenes again.
Overall the game is good in theory and most of it is pretty fun however the difficulty of it completely ruins the game for me and therefore the execution of the game is a pretty big let down, and if you're looking to play this game and spend time on it then you must have patience and the ability to not get bored of extremely repetitive gameplay otherwise I would not recommend you play this game.
No hate to the creator of it I just personally did not enjoy this game and found it way too unnecessarily difficult for what it is.
Thanks for playing! It's unfortunate that the difficulty was off-putting and led to a bad experience, the various mechanics of my games can be obtuse for players at times. This was my first major project and I think I've gotten a bit better at making things more accessible since. The hidden text was probably not the best decision, I haven't brought it back in any of my other works.
If you want to try the game with a bit of a power boost, you can modify your save file to get more stars, it's located in C:\Users\*USERNAME*\AppData\LocalLow\Impy\Sweeper. Set all map awards to "true" in the awards.sav file to get more starting options. It's always disheartening to hear from players who are enjoying the premise of one of my projects but find some aspects of the gameplay troublesome, I'm sorry about that.
Thanks for actually taking the time to respond I appreciate that. I hope I didn't offend you at all like I said the artstyle, the music and the overall idea of the game is actually really great and very very interesting and I can tell you put a lot of work into it and I love that! It's just the difficulty of it that put me off unfortunately.
Thank you for the suggestion as well I might give that a try soon! Again I hope I didn't offend you or anything that wasn't my intent I just wanted to give my thoughts! I've been meaning to try out some of your other games so I'll have to give your more recent one's a shot sometime soon as well.
And no need to be sorry at the end of the day you can only learn from these things and I'm happy to give some sort of feedback and I just hope I didn't come off as mean or rude or anything as this is a very interesting game just with some unfortunate issues that make it way too challenging!
I always appreciate constructive criticism, especially when it's clear that the player was actively engaged. I'm happy to see your response! My games are quite niche in terms of how they are played, and the stories they tell, so they can't (and weren't meant to) reach absolutely everyone, but I do try to get a few more players on board when I see an opportunity. Difficulty is something that I can offer more options for on my end to allow more players to have fun, so it's certainly a very reasonable concern!
Try some of my other games if you have the time, perhaps one of them can offer a more fulfilling experience!
Do you need to start the sharing route by talking to ram to get a titjob from fio? trying to get all the endgins and fio for two is the last one i need
You will need to meet Ram with Cetra twice in the guild to start the sharing route. The titjob event should be available in any map that has Abigail in it. You'll also need to take Fio out to town once or twice to get her love to 15 or higher and avoid the endings that involve Oolie or Ram. It's been a couple of years since I've worked on the endings so I could be wrong about something.
I will release a series of patches for my older games this year because I am planning to get them to appear on Steam and possibly some other services. The 10e patch for Sweepers changes the following:
I just reinstalled and have no stars. Is there any way to get back the stars i had or do I have to start fresh. I almost had them all and it will take a while to get them all again.
If you have your old computer available, you can find the save files in the C:\Users\*your_name*\AppData\LocalLow\Impy\Sweeper directory. Copy the files over to the same location on your new machine.
Also shrunk fat girl scene is amazing
I put on dress and now I can't date anyone, even the guy even if I "wanted" (i don't) how to undo it
Edit: never mind I chose dress from NG+ menu, damn shame it just locks you from interacting with anyone outside seduction. UHHHH
Yea the dress is for its own routes if you want to flip the script on the girls.
13 endings?! Will there be some advices how to collect them all?
Also is getting all 3 stars necessary? Looks like it is pure luck once again but I like this game in terms of gameplay perhaps the most thus far, art is also very pretty
Stars unlock new boosters at the start of the game. After you clear the game once, there's a gallery that gives hints for how to find various events and endings.
new boosters? such as?
The greyed out icons you see when starting a new game. They help make various parts of the game easier on subsequent playthroughs and unlock extra features. There are also several starting classes that unlock as you get different endings.
How do i fail a mission?
You'll return to the guild after the turn counter in the lower right runs out. You can return to a quest as many times as you like, but if you want to quit and try another, go to the menu and choose "abandon quest".
Are you ever going to make a similar NTR game with an alpha like Ram, or a summer sweepers part 2? that would be awesome!
My next game that I will start making in October will not have a manly rival, but I've seen several request to see one again, so I think there's a very good chance of having one appear sometime next year.
I like to explore different genres and designs, so I don't think I will make a game that is exactly like Summer Sweepers anytime soon. There are a lot of common threads, gameplay elements and guest characters in my projects, and you will definitely continue to see some of what you have enjoyed in Summer Sweepers in anything new that I make!
y sera que podrias intentar hacer una version en español es que es un poco confuso todo y puess solo e logrado hhacer un logro
thanks
XUnity AutoTranslator es una utilidad gratuita que se puede utilizar para traducir juegos Unity a otros idiomas. Sin embargo, no creo que funcione bien con este juego, porque el texto se muestra una letra a la vez. Me deshice de esta característica en mis juegos más nuevos, por lo que deberían ser más fáciles de traducir.
pregunta el prota osea al que manejamos nunca va a hacer al cochinote con alguna chica y si se puede como lo hago que no he podido de ninguna forma
El juego se centra sobre todo en escenas ocultas, pero hay una ruta argumental en la que el protagonista consigue algunos eventos con las chicas. Tendrás que hablar con Ram una vez y luego unirte a su evento con Cetra en el gremio dos veces para iniciarlo. Abre la galería para comprobar los requisitos adicionales para esas escenas.
gracias lo voy a intentar
I am stuck on the first shady dealer quest with the chests of panties. I get down to needing 1 more key but I only have 1 turnip and 1 carrot and cant get the pot to make anything but onions or carrots since it spawns blue Edit: Quest is Black market bust
Do i need a passive power up to finish the quest like some of the stars require?
Pots change what they do based on the color. There's only 3 outcomes, so if you get the wrong vegetable, first remove it, then change the empty pot to the previous color, then put in whatever it gave you inside, and use magic again. This will give you the third vegetable every time.
If you just magic a pot back and forth with the same item in it, it will keep giving you the same two things.
Oh I didnt know i can change a empty pot. Probably should have tried that.
I don't think there are any softlock states possible in this game. I remember making an effort to prevent such things. If ever something like that does occur, remember that you can abandon quests from the menu to try them again or move on to the next one.
please add a volume slider and exit button
Click the "=" button above the "i" button for menu with the exit button. I'm not sure if I will update this game again, but I can include volume slider in the list of stuff to add if I do.
This is one of the best NSFW games I've ever played. I'm so glad that it's not only NTR and astonished that (from what I've seen) every bit of dialogue/interaction changes based on the protagonist wearing a dress. I really love that you can choose to have the protagonist be a femboy/sissy (or whatever different term applies here)- are there any other games out there with that mechanic and can I expect one more game similar to this from you? Of course it doesn't have to be minesweeper although it was a very welcome challenge xD. I would definitely pay money for another game like this!
Very happy that you enjoyed my game this much! Glad that you gave it a chance even if NTR isn't your thing. The NTR elements tend to be on the lighthearted side, though sometimes that just means that the people who like it don't think I'm going far enough, and those who don't won't try my games on principle. I tried to incorporate a femboy character into each of my recent games, but so far this is the only one where the protagonist can become one as a game mechanic. There is however an ending in Secrets of the Bastion with a bit of feminization, and a couple of dating events in Monster Monsoon with similar themes. No need to pay any money, I will always try to keep my games free and accessible for everyone, but I'm glad that you liked this one enough to consider supporting me!
Thanks for the quick reply! Yeah, to be honest when I read NTR part of me wanted to just skip over this game, but thinking back on Secrets Of The Bastion and Psychic Archeology Agency I decided not to (also because I like Minesweeper). And I'm so glad I did! Secrets Of The Bastian is in terms of NSFW too light for my taste, iirc there isn't even vaginal sex. Of course Psychic Archeology Agency also is barely NSFW but I just liked the gameplay a lot. Monster Monsoon I've yet to check out to its full extend. Anyway, I hope from the bottom of my heart that you continue to make games for many years to come, I'll definitely be checking them out before passing judgement :)
Thanks! Bastion's got some vaginal penetration scenes here and there, even a couple with big illustrations in the finished version. Psychic Archeology Agency had a bit more NSFW content planned, like events for certain imp deliveries, but there hasn't been any serious interest in seeing the game expanded among my subscribers. Monster Monsoon is about 3 updates away from being finished, but there's plenty to do in the current version already, so check it out if you haven't! Monsoon should be finalized in early Autumn alongside the "small but complete" version of Girlfriend Saves the city, and my next project will be a roguelike chess game with upgradeable pieces, so I hope you'll stop by to take another look.
The sphinx quest is giving me a hard time, specifically the pillars. It tells me that I have to have 1 red glowing pillar and 2 blue glowing pillars to make the relic shimmer at the sphinx, but when I have them, the relic isn't shimmering. Do I have to have the lit pillars in specific spots?
Any will work, make sure that you have the correct amount and no others lit. If you ever have trouble with sphinx puzzles, send Fio there and she will leave a note that tells exactly what you need to do.
I just realized that I had to act. I thought I would see a visual effect there if I had the pillars right.
would you consider bringing your games to steam?
Probably not. Maybe if I start selling my games at some point.
Where is the linux save data location and is there any setting menu to change things like the music volume?
I don't think I've added a sound setting for this game. It an be adjusted in volume mixer in Windows, but I don't know about Linux.
According to the internet, the save path for Linux should be:
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/unity3d/Impy/Sweeper/
The command:
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData)
will apparently get you what XDG_DATA_HOME is.
works great on steam deck
That's great news! There have been some requests for me to bring my games to mobile devices, and my attempts to do so never really resulted in anything good. Don't know if my pixelated games will do as well on Steam deck, but I'm very happy to hear that Summer Sweepers works!
Any chance of adding animation to this game? I would love to see it come alive.
I think I'm finished, the only updates I am considering making is to adjust some of the clunkier levels.
I want to try dipping my toes into making animated works again some time in the near future, so there's a good chance that at least one of my new games in 2023 will feature some animations. It's a question of quality over quantity. If Summer Sweepers or one of my newer games were fully animated, they would quite likely have just 20% of the events they currently do.
I have another question, is there a way to access the gallery?
Oh wait nvm i found out
It should open after you reach any ending if I coded it right.
I have a question, where is the NTR? I downloaded this game for NTR, and i was happy when ram appeared, but how do i get him to do a scene with espa or fio? Thanks.
Events can start on split tiles (shown with shaded strip on the map) when you're not present. You'll get most of your events just over the normal course of playing the game, it's actually quite hard to avoid them. New scenes will unlock as the stats of the characters change, most notably the "bond level" which only goes up after you complete a mission. There are some tile and character combinations that are harder to get, but you can check the gallery (which unlocks after your first game) for details on how to reach them. There are over 100 events in this game, and most of them are NTR themed.
thanks
how do you get the dress
Meet with Ram twice when you see him alone marked with a "?" on the map. After that, invite any girl on a date and you'll have the option to buy a dress at the clothing shop for $200. The person you're dating needs to be on the shop tile with you.
thank
I'm pissed I didn't read that its NTR
How do I find the 2 Memory Orbs... I am just getting infinite disposable keys and no options to use them
In the 2nd quest? Send your girls to scout the enemy tiles and then send Miwi the robot to attack the tiles that have a bandit's face on them. You'll find treasure chests that you can unlock hidden behind them.
Hey, I wanna ask how to get disposable keys? I've been looking everywhere but no luck. I tried to send the girls on random tiles so they hopefully find some but nothing. I see the rabbit and monkey trading Stone and Carrots but for Disposable keys which I've yet to find. Great game btw, really like the art style!
Edit: I'm so stupid. I really thought I should give them (animals) a key for the other stuff. I'm so dumb. So sorry, but amazing game nonetheless.
You'll usually just find everything you need through trade and there's multiple ways of getting it. I think there are a couple of maps that require a specific skill to complete the bonus objective, but the main goal always has a few different solutions.
I'm afriad I'm not sure how to use companions effectively. From what I can tell you can only ask them to do things that are one tile away, but they also move around the map somewhat randomly. I'm not sure if I have to wait until the person I need just happens to come within one tile of the thing I need them to do, or if there's some way to make them follow me or move more than one square away that I am missing.
You can chart a path on the map using the blue arrows. Click a neighboring tile once, then a tile next to the one you clicked. Keep the path going until you reach the point you want to send them to, then click the "x" on the tile to confirm the path.
How do you unlock the town? I've played through twice now and haven't been able to figure that out.
It appears as an option by talking to one of the girls in the guild after completing your first four quests.
am i the only one who can't figure out how to do anything? all i can do is click around the map and nothing else. Right clicking has no effect
There's a menu that appears in the top left-hand corner of the screen that allows you to interact with various map features and request tasks from your companions.
Not sure if you still answer comments for this one, but i had a question about the stats. What exactly are the horny, lewd, bond, and love stats? Is love like love toward the player, are horny and lewd the same thing, is bond in any way related to love? Sorry if you've answered this but i am very curious
There's a page that unlocks in the in-game manual after your first game that explains them. Love is primarily used for getting different endings and is gained from conversations and dating. Lust goes up from various interactions and resets from sexual events. Lewdness increases up to a limit from most events. Bond level goes up for each completed quest.
Different scenes will occur based on how high the stats are, the galley gives hints on the requirements for each one.
hi does this have frottage scenes?
Not in this game. I'm not opposed to maybe adding a scene to one of the new games I'm making, but I don't think Summer Sweepers had any.
Finally tried out the final major update. Congratulations on finishing a project! All the quality of life additions make the game feel much better in my opinion. The minesweeper aspect is quite interesting and there's a good amount to see and play in each of the quests. The art and character designs are still great, I like them a lot. Good job.
Thank you, I'm happy that you took the time to try it out! It's the first really big project I have every worked on, I've learned a lot from it. I'm hoping to make my new games just as big and as full of content as this one, though I may try making some new smaller ones in the future too.
I can't work out how to get Miwi to fight enemies in mission 2. It doesn't let me chart her path onto enemy tiles. I've tried walking onto enemy tiles myself but it won't let me.
Send her next to them. You can also right click on an enemy tile to prioritize it as a target.
Is it possible to make this game windowed?
Sure, you can hit alt+enter for windowed mode. It does not resize without external tools however, I might look to see if it's possible to allow it in Unity build settings.
You planned add more languages? For example russian
It's might be too difficult to add new languages with the way that the game is set up. Try "XUnity AutoTranslator", which is a really great tool and I use it all the time to play Unity games in languages I don't know. It can be configured to work with multiple different translation services, so you should be able to find one that works well for you. Most of the games that I'm making are focused more on gameplay rather than story, so don't worry if you can't understand the plot.
I know this program, it does not capture the text of your game well
I think it's the best I can offer for this game, but I'll look into ways of making my future projects easier to translate.
Will there be more pictures of sex scenes? It's just that some sex scenes only have sprites. And there are no pictures, thanks in advance for the answers :)
Yes, version 10 will have some additional closeup pictures and illustrations for all of the endings. Not every event will have a picture, but there will be a few more.
no matter how much I put together in the same square, abigail, oolie and espa i cant trigger the threesome scene :/ i need help
Gallery lists the requirements for each event and you can check them on the map by pressing the "i" button. One of the participating characters might not have a high enough stat to trigger the event. I'm also adding some additional help with getting rare events in v9.
Some events being very rare is just somewhat of a design flaw in how the game works, it wasn't really built to get as big as it did.
I just realized that bond level was set too high on that event in v8. It's been fixed for v9. It should still be accessible in v8 by taking Oolie's repeatable quest a few times.
so when exactly v9 realesd on public
December 10th for public release. The early access version will be up on my SubscribeStar in a day or two.
I don't really know how the registration on SubscribeStar is set up for card details. I'm only registered as a creator myself. Try support@subscribestar.adult to see if they can help you.
Don't stress too much about it if it turns into some difficult process, just having others playing my games is already the most important form of support I can have.
nevermind I change the browser the issue was some cookies blocker stuff , I already purchase the tier $1 i wish could have been helped more but you know the chinese virus hehe, and you deserve even more support your game is awesome, also i have a question, the v8bis the current version or it is already the november update?
Thank you, I appreciate the support. V8b is the October update, it's the latest version currently uploaded. V9 will be available for early access on my Subscribestar account in a couple of days and will be uploaded here on Itch for all on December 10th.
where the new virson?
v8 is up. I haven't posted a DevLog because I'm still wrapping up the v9 update. I like to post the notifications and previews simultaneously if possible.
ok i cant wait for v9 plz hurry🤗
your game is aesome btw . i love it
Do you think that an Android version is at all possible?
I doubt it. I briefly experimented with the concept, but there's just too much stuff to adjust to make the game experience feel good on mobile devices.
Will it be difficult to implement sounds such as moans? I mean in future versions
Sounds don't really work with the audio filter that activates during events. I might mess around to see if there's something I can do, but I won't mess with the game too much if it proves to be too much work.
