🕑 Added 2023-03-31 23:17:42 +0000 UTCHello everyone, we hope you’re all keeping well!
We are delighted to announce that the eleventh episode of Shale Hill Secrets is now available to download on Windows, macOS and Android.
Drama and love are both prevalent in life, aren't they? On one hand, we experience fun, love, and engaging in activities that bring us joy with those we cherish. However, on the other hand, we may find ourselves doing things we are not willing to do to protect ourselves and those we love dearly.
In the case of our main character, these undesirable tasks often involve confronting dangerous individuals, putting their life at risk, and navigating through high-stress situations that… Well, let’s not get into spoilers here, right? Episode 11 is here – and it is a good one. Don’t waste your time, go have some fun!
Ah, just a reminder: join our Discord server! Here you can give feedback on the episode, report typos/bugs and discuss theories with other players.
We hope you all enjoy this episode, and we shall see you soon for more!
The Platinum Bonus Scene is here!
In this update, we are also bringing a new Platinum Bonus Scene, along with Episode 11’s assets in 4K resolution. Click here to access the 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
Note: There's a known bug in this release. The game can crash when the app is closed. This, however, won't affect your progress.
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_v0.11.1.dmg
Android
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.

I'm kinda pissed at the writers of this. I feel like you're gonna make me pick a favorite eventually and fuck you in advance for that. Quality writing though. I've actually laughed audibly several times.
