Hello everyone!
We are happy to announce that Shale Hill Secrets - Episode 8 is now available to Gold+ patrons on Windows, macOS and Android.
As you’ve come to expect, this episode is another big one. It includes multiple special scenes with many animations, along with a whole lot of story to get your teeth into - things are really starting to heat up! We generally do believe this is one of the best episodes of SHS yet, and we really hope you enjoy it!
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 handy as the game gets bigger over time.
If you can't find SHS on Itch App, go to settings and make sure the option "Show content marked as adult in search & browse" is enabled.

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 must be active for the API to recognize it. If you pledged and cancelled 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 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 the DMG file. 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_v0.8.1.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.
