Shale Hill Secrets - Episode 12 Released to $10+ patrons!
🕑 Added 2023-06-01 00:54:38 +0000 UTCHello friends, how is it going?
We are pleased to inform you that Shale Hill Secrets - Episode 12 is now available to Gold+ patrons on Windows, macOS and Android.
We totally get how excited you are to dive into the next chapter and unravel the mysteries that lie ahead. We know, it is our fault. The mind-blowing cliffhanger from the last episode has left everybody scratching their heads.
We're not dropping any hints this time around, we know how curious you are to see how (or if?) the MC will get out of this new entanglement he's gotten himself into... So, don't waste anymore time, download the episode below and go play right now!
The Platinum Bonus Scene is here!
With this launch, we are also bringing May’s Platinum Scene (along with Episode 12’s assets in 4K resolution). In this scene, we’ll get a different perspective on how the friendship between Maggie and Haley could have developed in another universe. We bet you will love how this goes… Click here to access the complete post for this exclusive bonus content.
All patrons below the Platinum tier can download a small sample of the scene (the images attached to this post).
Game Install Instructions
IMPORTANT: Do not play previous builds (0.1.x, 0.2.x etc). Always play the latest build available (it contains all the episodes). Since we are constantly improving the engine, executing a previous build after you've run a newer one could corrupt your progress.
Itch App
Please consider installing SHS through Itch App instead of downloading it using your browser. Itch App will automatically keep the game up-to-date through smaller patches (as Steam does, for example), which comes in handy as the game gets bigger over time.

Having issues with in-game errors?
Try to install the game using the itch app https://itch.io/app instead of downloading it through the browser.
Patreon Authentication
The game requires direct access validation using your Patreon account. Your subscription (gold or more) must be active for the API to recognize it. If you pledged and canceled it right afterwards, the validation process could fail. Please re-enable your pledge (you won't be charged again) and try again.
If your browser doesn’t open when clicking “Login with Patreon to play this episode!”, please check your system default browser settings and make sure your preferred browser is selected.
If the authentication process doesn’t work, please make sure to whitelist Shale Hill Secrets in your antivirus/firewall settings. Also, log out and log in from Patreon in your browser. Whitelisting our domain (https://shalehillsecrets.com/) in your ad blocker/security extension in your browser can also do the trick.
Windows
Download the file below, extract the zipped file to a location of your choice and then run the Shale Hill Secrets executable. The game should open straight away after this. Do not try to run the executable without unzipping it first or you’ll get an error message! Do not mix these files with previous releases! This release contains all the episodes.
macOS
Double click Install Shale Hill Secrets.dmg. Then, in the window that opens, drag and drop the app to the Applications folder.
If the DMG file doesn't open, this means Gatekeeper could have quarantined it. It can be fixed by running this command in Terminal:
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine $HOME/Downloads/Install_Shale_Hill_Secrets_v0.12.0.dmg
Android Beta Compressed Build
Your device needs to be able to install APKs outside of the Play Store. If it isn't, you need to enable that option first.
After downloading the file, open the APK and select "update". Don't uninstall the previous version or you might lose your progress.
The current build for Android was made using Beta tools in order to keep the APK under 2GB. Please let us know if it is working well on your device.

The story has been heading in a very similar direction to what I thought. I hope I can choose to be bad with a bad person lol.
