Introducing Summer Cloud for game devs, in research preview
When making games you quickly end up with huge repos due to big assets.
Sharing assets with teams is rough and slow, and git is bad at this even with LFS.
You can now save all your assets in Summer Cloud, and ship just your code to Github, and let your AI agents keep everything in sync with our MCP and skills
Summer Board is now live in Summer Engine
- A miro like experience
- Ideate your game, and visualize your game style
- Summer AI can see your board, and use it as a reference to build your game
Excited!
The new 2026 AI workflow is going to destroy the old way of prototyping games.
Workflow:
GPT Image 2.0: cinematic + asset sheet
Codex: “make this image playable”

Hope you had an amazing weekend!
Monday news ☀️
We are starting to see people coming online in Summer Engine from all over the world now! All just sharing the love of games. It's awesome!
This also means, that I now need to work on multi-region architecture, to make sure that no matter where you are in the world, that you get a nice experience.
For this week, I'll be locked in on not making new features, but on making improvements to everything that is already there, and to make everything more stable
Thank you so much for making games with Summer!
Much Summer love,
Mathias

THE JURY:
Me, @s13k_, and I will ask some real game dev and AI people to jury again too
Sponsors and jury suggestions still very welcome, just DM me!
It will be interesting to see the difference in quality with last year, and the Vibe Jam can be kind of like a fun benchmark for AI coding seeing it close in on real commercial games I think

Summer Engine New Update! ☀️
Smarter project indexing is here and we cut token usage by 90%
- Assets discoverable by name - say "add the dragon model" and the AI finds it much faster in large repos (we know those game repos can be freaking massive!)
- Fallback content when desktop is offline so no more empty results!
Big wins today!
Oh and we let the video keep going in black screen in case you wanted to finish listening to the banger

BIG update coming soon to Summer Engine
I’m implementing full self debugging with in-scene snapshots and a “start the game and take a snapshot” flow.
This lets Summer actually see what’s happening in your game, visualize the state, and help you debug properly. It’s a huge unlock.
The snapshot is taken through the engine only. It cannot capture anything else on your PC. It does not screenshot your chat with Summer. The images are stored with zero data retention.
I’m very excited about this. It’s a big step forward. I’m deep in it, and this is why I didn’t launch the version yesterday. I want this in the Windows release. It’ll be worth it.
