Or just use so you have the files locally and save a step....
grviewer runs locally too, has a nice interface, lets you decompile rpyc files and display their content with syntax highlighting, is browser based and therefore os independent and best of all: you can paste a link to it on a forum for anyone to use immediately without having to download something first.
but yeah, for the purpose of having all files of one archive extracted at once, rpaextract works one or two clicks more quickly :D

It's not really a sandbox. It's a hub system which lets you choose the order in which you do events. Other than that, it's just a regular VN where most of the choices are for dialogue flavor. There are no free roams, no resource management, and there's not even very much branching.

Honestly, the "Sandbox" tag is even less of an accurate descriptor of Desert Stalker than the "Female Protagonist" tag. At least with the FP tag, it's justified because there is a small part of the game from Shani's perspective even though 90% of the game is Zaton's perspective. "Sandbox" just doesn't fit at all.
I am not sure I agree with your conclusion. When I just read people saying this was a sandbox I was surprised and thought what you wrote but after thinking a bit more, I don't know. There's truly a sandbox feeling attached to the game that I can't entirely...

At the end of the day, you choose what to do, mostly the order in which you do it, you can make every quest in a different way, with different conclusions and different consequences (for example, you can lose quests as a consequence of some choices).

Sure, there is a main story line but for now, in this update... I'd say sandbox fits. Not greatly, not exactly, not perfectly. But I am surprised to admit that it fits to some degree. This game has a lot of sandbox elements mixed.

Maybe it gets more defined as they complete the game.

game\audio.rpa is a renpy archive file that contains all the mp3s you're looking for
you can extract or listen to the files directly in
Or just use so you have the files locally and save a step....
OR use Sam's versatile UnRen, which comes with , which is more versatile than RPA Extract. You can e.g. list the contents first, and then just extract what you need (not perfect though, e.g. wildcards aren't supported AFAICT). In this case you could just extract the audio folder (or at least that's true for the compressed version, where everything's in a single .rpa IIRC).

Is there any way to make the old saves (0.16b) work? I wont start over around 10 hours progress... I hate when devs do this...
If isnt, can someone send an old save before the last update (0.16b)?

No. Even if you could get old saves to work, you'd miss a lot!

There's a lot of rework here, and getting old saves to work will give you a lot of errors.

I understand why this can become necessary, but in a situation with this much content to replay plus new stuff - it's kind of a game killer. I'll probably wait until it's complete and then do the whole thing. Once a "old saves will not work" post goes up it quite often happens again.

Reworks aren't game changing experience in my opinion. Even the extra added renders, you aren't missing anything of value if you have played the old version. It wasn't like old renders were awful and new renders are an upgrade.

Except some scenes were changed... and made hotter. Like returning Kyra to Adira... there's new characters during the sex scene, which was also extended.

Of course, this is cool and big work. The game stands out from the crowd with its atmosphere and interior.
I won't look for flaws, they can always be found. But I don't want to.
Let the developer have the patience, desire, and imagination to continue.

Ouch, with version 0.17.1.1 my old saves don't work anymore..... Now I have to stalk again at the beginning.

Does this change have anything to do that it is available on Steam since last December 13?

civilisation => civilization
everyting => everything
Deser => Desert
navingation => navigation

For that first one, they're probably using British spelling.

Well, I don't know why but for whatever reason they are just layering animations on top of each other with the show statement without hiding the previous one. The animations are already defined so there is no point in using show. I went through the scripts and replaced the show with scene (how they should be?) and everything is playing as expected. Not sure why they did that.
Heyyy everyone! Does anyone know what "show statement" means? I am a new player, I just started the game and the first BJ scene is lagging too much, it's not watchable. Is there a fix to this lag? Pleaseee! I really wanna check this game out
