Debug menu

The debug menu is a special list of operations unlocked by setting the game in developer mode. It provides a lot of useful features to cheat on Summertime Saga, or get out of bugs and softlocks. Using the menu can block the game so proceed at your own risk!

How to access the menu

2. Or write the following code in a text file, and place it in the same folder, after changing the file extension to .rpy:

init 100 python:
    config.console = True
    config.developer = True
    persistent.enable_save_locking = False

3. Restart the game, and press the keys ⇧ Shift+O to open the console.

4. Open the phone menu and click on the wifi network signal icon to display the developer menu.

Android:

1. Click on the network signal icon in the phone menu to display the blue developer menu.
2. Dismiss the text field by hitting the Android Back button a couple of times.
3. Click on the black icon on the top right, next to the exit button.
4. The console is now open and you can type in your commands.
