Feedback and bug reports

When playing Tiny Glade, you may choose to report a bug and/or send us feedback using our in-game tool. This helps us make a better game and address issues.

If you choose to send us a report, we will collect the data you voluntarily provide, such as save file, game screenshot, text description, and sheep emoji. We will also collect your game installation ID* as well as a timestamp and game build version. We use those to filter reports, and approximately determine whether any two reports come from the same person, or from multiple people.

*The game installation ID is not connected to your Steam or other platform IDs, and neither is it linked to any other personal data. It is randomly generated on the first launch of the game.
