  • Attempted to fix an issue causing multiplayer games to crash
  • Attempted to fix an issue causing multiplayer characters to lose animals or items
  • Fixed an issue causing the Teleport spell to not work when used

Micropatch 1.5.2 and Portrait Revision

Hi everyone, it’s Bruce!

We just released another micropatch that is live now on Steam for Windows, Steam Deck, and Mac! We’re still working on fixes and improvements behind the scenes, and this micropatch addresses some specific community-reported bugs and feedback from the last 24 hours.

First of all, we want to thank you for your feedback on the new portrait edits to some romanceable characters in Patch 1.5. As we’re getting closer to finalizing the last of the content for the Nintendo Switch release, we’re working on tying up any loose ends, and that includes any changes that have to be made that could impact Sun Haven’s intended game rating. Some players have also reported that they felt the portraits were not very family friendly, so we leaned on the safe side to ensure Sun Haven remains family friendly for all ages and players, on all platforms.

However, due to the community’s feedback, the previously adjusted portraits have now been reverted so our beloved characters are now back to looking exactly how you remember them! It’s always hard to find a balance of exactly what players want, but we’re doing our best to try and make everyone happy. We read everything in Discord and on all social platforms, and we hope you’ll continue to share your feedback and suggestions with us!

In addition to the portraits going back to their originals, we heard your feedback on the new WIP portraits, and we will no longer be moving forward with the new style, even with potential edits.

At the end of the day, we’re all people who love Sun Haven, and it’s heartwarming to see the passion this community has for the game we all love. Our next update will be full of community suggestions, quality of life changes, and tons of bug fixes.

Now, let’s take a look at the changes in this micropatch:


Micropatch 1.5.2



  • Reverted prior bust changes to some romanceable character portraits
  • Fixed an issue causing the hotbar to become inactive after using the Teleport spell
  • Attempted a fix on multiplayer games to crash when joining other players
  • Fixed an issue causing lost items to show as a ruby
  • Fixed an issue with 1.5 DLC pack prices not reflecting properly in the in-game store menu
  • Fixed an issue with the Sakura Print Bed and the Lacquered Wood Bed to have layering issues with rugs
  • Fixed an issue causing the Pop Sensation Performance Gloves to appear in the Tea Temple Pack Vendor list
  • Fixed an issue causing the Jet Black Kimono and the Teal Kimono to be missing their sleeves


As always, make sure you log out of Steam and log back in so you get the update! If you run into any issues at all, please let us know in the #report-bugs channel in our Discord server and follow the pinned report template so we can help!

Good luck, have fun, and we’ll see you in Sun Haven!

Micropatch 1.4.9- German and French Fixes

Hi everyone, it’s Tavielle!



We just released another micropatch that is live now on Steam for Windows, Mac, and Steam Deck! This micropatch addresses quite a few fixes, updates, and improvements for bugs, issues, and feedback from the community. Here’s what has been updated and fixed in this patch:


  • Added massive improvements to German localization


  • Added moderate improvements to French localization (more fixes coming very soon)


  • Re-added Brazilian Portuguese localization
  • Fixed some bugs and other issues related to Simplified Chinese localization
  • (Coming soon: massive improvements to other languages as well as support for additional languages!)
  • Added UI scale button allowing you to change your UI scale up to 125%. Steam Deck UI is now starts at 125% UI scale
  • The Mystic Miner perk in the skill tree now works in all mines in the game
  • Fixed an issue causing divorced spouses to not move out of your house
  • Fixed some touch screen issues on Steam Deck
  • Added tooltips to your inventory when moving items while using a controller
  • Fixed an issue causing the end of day screen not calculating XP correctly
  • Fixed issues related to UI on some resolutions

Known Issue: If the game is opened with 125% UI scale, Romanceable Busts will temporarily clip off the screen. To resolve this, simply change the UI scale setting (even to 124% and back to 125% UI scale). On Steam Deck (which now automatically opens at 125% UI scale), you'll need to make sure to do this trick to fix the issue until our next micropatch!

You can expect to see more fixes and improvements coming to all language translations soon! We appreciate your patience as we work through this process!

As always, make sure you log out of Steam and log back in so you get the update! If you run into any issues at all, please let us know in the #report-bugs channel in our Discord server and follow the pinned report template so we can help!

Happy Summer Sale tomorrow! ☀️
