An Odd Game About Sausage Guides & Walkthroughs
From first toss to Extra Level 20 — every tutorial for the sausage physics clicker.
Welcome to the Guides Hub for An Odd Game About Sausage (sold on Steam as a weird game about sausage). This is the map of every how-to on the wiki: first-hour setup, mouse timing, soft-body physics, infamous hard stages, a structured full clear, post-game extras, a buyer’s review, achievements / 100% gallery notes, Steam Deck Verified habits, and troubleshooting for community bugs.
The game is a single-player 3D physics clicker. Left-click tosses a soft sausage; you win a stage when it lands on the target object. There are roughly 102 main levels, then extra levels after completion, with a gallery that tracks clears. It is a loving tribute to the mobile classic Bacon – The Game, released 2026-05-21 for $2.99 with a demo available, and it holds a Very Positive Steam rating (~86%) with Steam Deck Verified status.
Where to start
If you just installed (or are still on the demo), begin with Getting Started. That page covers Steam install, demo versus buy, what the gallery does, and what the first hour feels like so you do not bounce off early physics quirks.
Deciding whether to buy at all? Read the Game Review for price fit, viral stream context (CaseOh, MoistCr1TiKaL, Northernlion), Bacon tribute tone, and Steam’s generative-AI disclosure for some 3D models and SFX.
Next, skim Controls even if the game looks one-button simple. Community notes repeatedly call out Escape for the menu and awkward right-click habits; Steam Deck players especially benefit from a short input checklist before the harder props — or jump straight to the dedicated Steam Deck guide for Verified defaults, V1.2.2 V-Sync Off guidance, and save notes.
Core systems
The sausage is a soft body. Bounce, stretch, and settle time matter as much as aim. Physics Tips explains when to wait for the meat to settle versus clicking again, how RNG and skill interact, and why V1.2’s physics fix changed some clears.
When a stage feels unfair — hummingbird, glue stick, brick wall, Extra Level 20, hand, anteater, magnet, balloon, Easter Island registration quirks — jump to Hardest Levels for targeted strategies. If the fail looks like a bug (pan clipping, clear not registering, achievement silence), open Troubleshooting before grinding the wrong lesson.
Full clears, extras, and 100%
Use Full Walkthrough for the structure of the ~102-level campaign, how to follow chaptered videos without spoiling every prop, and early-to-late pacing tips. After the main gallery is filled, Extra Levels covers post-game stages, developer messages, and why Extra Level 20 sits in so many “stuck” threads.
Chasing Steam trophies or a true gallery mop-up? Achievements explains the sparse achievement list (community notes ~2), the V1.2.1 unlock fix, how to verify gallery slots, and how not to soft-lock your mental health on Extra 20. Pair it with practice loops on Tools and patch context on Updates.
Difficulty rankings for remaining props live on the tier list when you want triage instead of a full guide read.
How this hub stays useful
Cross-link sibling guides while you play. A control tip often solves a physics problem; a physics tip often unlocks a hard level; a troubleshooting note often saves an evening of false “RNG” conclusions. Pair written advice with the single embedded video on each deep-dive page (never more than one per article). For codes, patch notes, and player tools, use the other hubs from the main nav — this section stays focused on how to clear stages and finish cleanly.

Bookmark this hub when you need a fast jump between topics. The sausage does not care how many hours you have — only whether the last bounce landed on the target, and whether Steam agreed the clear counted.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions.
Do I need every guide before playing?
No. Start with Getting Started and Controls, then open Physics Tips, Hardest Levels, or Troubleshooting only when a stage or bug stalls you. The Full Walkthrough is optional if you prefer discovering props yourself.
Is the demo enough to learn the game?
Yes for the core click-and-land loop. Buy the full game when you want the complete ~102-level gallery, extras, and achievements added in later patches. The Review page helps with the buy decision.
Where are patch-specific changes documented?
Physics, clipping, achievements, and V-Sync changes from V1.2 through V1.2.3 are summarized on the Updates hub, with gameplay fallout on Physics Tips, Troubleshooting, Achievements, and Steam Deck.
Does this wiki cover Steam Deck?
Yes. Use the dedicated Steam Deck guide for Verified play, V-Sync Off guidance, and saves; Controls still covers Escape and toss hygiene.
Which guide is for bugs versus hard stages?
Hardest Levels is for skill walls. Troubleshooting is for clipping, registration quirks, Escape/right-click confusion, and achievement unlock failures.
