Hello everyone!
Got a bit of a bigger update as we have updated the version of Unity we were using from 2019 to the latest 2021. This brings various improvements but most notably corrects a recently discovered security vulnerability.
Additionally, this update restores the soundtrack which was accidentally removed after the most recent update, sorry about that!

Quality of Life
- Adjusted inventory so it will now always select the last item the player was hovering over when opened
- Adjusted elevator in all episodes so it will now default selection to match the floor the player is on
Improvements
- Added a SYNC button to achievements screen which will ensure the local achievements and the platform achievements match
- Adjusted save system to ensure steam cloud saves now contain all progression instead of having some of it exist in the player's Registry
- Adjusted Quality settings so that VSYNC is now always forced on and additionally added a cap to FPS in cases where the player disable it, these will both ensure the game does not run at very high FPS on high powered machines
Fixes
- Possible fix for issue where Sal's walk animation would not play correctly
- Fixed issue where players could open/close the pause menu during certain actions
- This corrects issue where during episode 4 players could swap Sal and Larry's position or potentially softlock themselves
- Fixed issue where the game would not properly recognize when the DLC was not installed
- Fixed issue in episode 5 where 3D Sal's arm was not displaying properly
- Fixed translation issue at the start of episode 1 where the gravestone text could sometimes have overlapping text
If you experience any issues, please report them by either posting in the Steam discussions, the official Sally Face Discord, or by emailing me directly at [email protected] and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
Thanks and enjoy!

For those that missed the announcement, Portable Moose has made its first hire! Mike Thomas has joined me to help with programming and engine stuff. You'll see him on here as LoneWolf155 and can reach out directly for tech related issues at [email protected]. In addition to assisting on other games (Sally Face 2 👀) he's been fixing up some things in Sally Face that I wasn't able to on my own.
We've made a new public branch that we'd like to test a bunch of fixes on before pushing it to default branch. We've tested the game ourselves but would love to get some more feedback from anyone willing to play on this branch to help us find any potential issues the changes may have caused. Any help with testing on Mac and Linux is especially useful. The new branch is called "experimental" and you can access it by right clicking on the game in your Library, selecting Properties, then Betas, and changing the branch via the dropdown. Once we know the build is solid, then we'll release it on the default branch.
Reply to this thread with any feedback regarding this new build.
Thank you!

Additionally, I will soon be looking for volunteers to help with translating the full game into Simplified Chinese and French. Possibly also Polish and Japanese. As a solo dev, it's a lot to manage more translations though I hope that with the help of fans, we can get more languages available. I am also working with someone on the Spanish translation, which should be available around summer time.
If you would be interested in helping with the translations, please shoot me an email at [email protected] with your qualifications. Please only Simplified Chinese, French, Polish or Japanese for the time being.
Thank you all for your support!
