Smile Steam Bridge Studio

Smile Steam Bridge Studio

Add Steam achievements to your Smile Game Builder games without modifying your project or rebuilding it in another engine.

Smile Steam Bridge Studio is a Windows tool made for Smile Game Builder developers who want to add Steam achievement support to existing or new SGB games.

The program reads the game's save data and connects SGB switches to Steam achievement API names. When a switch is activated in the game, the generated bridge can unlock the corresponding achievement through Steamworks.

It works externally, so you don't need to modify Smile Game Builder itself or export your project to Unity just to add achievements.

Designed for existing games too

You don't need to start a new project.

If you have an older Smile Game Builder game that is already finished, Smile Steam Bridge can inspect its data.sgbpack, find the switches used by the project and help identify groups that are likely being used for achievements.

You can review everything before generating the launcher. Auto-detected mappings are never silently accepted.

Simple workflow

Select your game → find your Steam App ID → find or configure your achievement switches → verify the mappings → run the compatibility test → create the launcher.

That's it.

The generated bridge watches the game's save data and sends the corresponding achievement unlocks to Steam.

Built with safety in mind

Smile Steam Bridge does not modify your save files. Save data is read to determine the state of the configured switches.

The built-in compatibility test can also check your setup before you generate the final launcher, making it easier to catch incorrect mappings, missing Steamworks files or configuration problems before release.

Requirements

• Windows
• A Smile Game Builder game
• A Steamworks partner account and App ID for publishing on Steam
• Access to the official Steamworks SDK for the required Steam API redistributable files

Smile Steam Bridge Studio itself is distributed as a self-contained application and does not require your customers to install .NET or the Visual C++ Redistributable for the Bridge.
