A funny auto-runner racing game. During the game we get to know the fate of a young girl who sets off from a cold land to warm countries to finally survive the summer.
Summer Catchers is a two-dimensional racing game with elements of adventure prepared by a small FaceIT studio. The publisher is Noodlecake Studios, known for its various titles released mainly on mobile devices.
The game tells about the adventures of a young girl from the far, cold north. One day she realized that she had never experienced a warm summer in her life, she had never seen the ocean or real albatrosses. She decided to change it and set off on a journey.
Summer Catchers is a so-called auto-runner. This is a specific type of game, very similar to endless runners. In this case, the client drives forwards by himself, and our task is to ensure that the client drives safely, using a variety of temporary pieces of equipment. We buy them in a special shop for money earned while having fun. During the ride gadgets are displayed on the side of the screen, from where we choose them at appropriate moments, e.g. using a bumper is useful just before entering an obstacle, and the afterburner will accelerate the vehicle on the straight road.
The levels are generated randomly, so we never know what will happen to us during the journey. Time to time we have been divided into several thematic locations, to which we get access, among other things by performing tasks for the characters we meet.
Summer Catchers has an atmospheric visuals created on the Unity engine. In addition, the developers took care of the atmospheric soundtrack.

Game Ratings for Summer Catchers Video Game.
Killa Penguin: 7 / 10 by Jake Arias
All of these elements are familiar enough on their own, but coalesce into something that feels entirely new, and there’s a kind of underlying artistry intrinsic to the design that becomes increasingly evident the further you play. That having been said, I feel nothing but contempt for the underlying gameplay.

Summer Catchers is an enjoyable romp helping Chu see the ocean. When I first started playing Summer Catchers I wasn’t too sure what I thought of the game, but you know what? It grew on me! As I’ve mentioned Chu has a can-do attitude which really does rub off on you and makes you want to try to succeed. I like the art style, and even the gameplay itself becomes highly addicting.
Use a Potion: 7.8 / 10 by Daryl Leach
Whilst it has its fair share of frustrating moments, it didn’t take me long to find myself addicted to Summer Catchers’ charming endless-runner style gameplay. There was enough variety to be found across its quests and mini-games to ensure that the overall gameplay never grew stale, whilst the delightful world and its characters were always a treat to encounter. Sure, it has its share of flaws and the random nature of the gameplay (and dependence on luck) could cause some irritating moments here and there, but the addictive nature of Summer Catchers kept me coming back for more each time. It won’t be for everyone, but those looking for a quick and satisfying title to enjoy on their Nintendo Switch in short bursts really ought to give it a try.
