Not sure what the problem or delay has been about the last update - v0.17.2 was posted puiblicly on SS back on 31st December... :unsure:

Here is the link to the devs public post on SS -

Here is the Gofile download page for PC, Mac & android...


At least the OP can have the latest update links instead of v0.17.1.2...
SS changelog lists it as v0.17.1.2, which was uploaded and made public the same day as it is was uploaded to here.

v0.17.1.2 - 2024-12-30

Minor changes / Bugfixes
  • Fixed an issue with the gallery scenes having the same hint
  • Fixed an issue with the new car event triggering too early (should also resolve the incorrect jump within the event)
  • Fixed an issue with Kyra's trip to Adira being locked out if you visited her in the basement and told her to wait
  • Fixed an issue with the Codex screen not being draggable on PC/Mac
  • Fixed an incorrect jump in Emilia's introduction scene which would cause the game to continue to the next scene automatically.
  • Fixed an incorrect flag for some dialogue variation in Emilia's introduction
  • Fixed a flag not being set correctly during Nadia's market scene
  • Fixed a missing blocker for Shani's repeatable sparring session
  • Fixed a replay scene ("Foreign Affairs") that couldn't be unlocked in the gallery.
Same changelog that is in the OP and same on SS.

The one posted is the newest, you can even see on SS the changelog lists it as v0.17.1.2, which was uploaded and made public the same day as it is was uploaded to here.





Same changelog that is in the OP and same on SS.

Yeah, because I posted this the 30th, so maybe the version number did change and I didn't notice.

Desert Stalker [v0.17.1.2 2024-12-30] [Zetan]

NOTE: Version number did NOT change. But there is a new update.

The update was around 150MB

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Translations are back!

Hey everyone,
The initial translations update is here! You can now experience Desert Stalker in multiple languages.

We would like to apologize for the initial state of the release regarding translations, which gave false impressions and left many players unable to properly enjoy the game. We should have known better, but it is still a learning process for us.

That said, a huge "thank you" goes to community members
Aler, AHHCrazy, Darax, Eagle1900, and Kasatik for their invaluable effort in translating the game.
Thanks to them, the game is now available in the following languages:
  • Simplified Chinese
  • Traditional Chinese
  • Spanish
  • Italian
  • Russian

The full change log is listed below.

Known Issues
We wanted to give you an update as soon as possible, but this meant that due to the volume of the text currently in-game (~260,000 words), there might be some strings are are either partially translated or untranslated.

If you happen to encounter any incorrect text, please let us know on the Steam forums or our Discord. It will help us properly polish the translations.

We are also aware that some quests are not updating properly for a few players. We fixed many instances that could cause this, but we will continue to monitor and correct any other cases that are identified.

  • Added Simplified Chinese translation (by aler)
  • Added Traditional Chinese translation (by AHHCrazy)
  • Added Spanish translation (by Darax)

Minor changes / Bugfixes
  • Added an animation during the thermae visit with Shani
  • Fixed an issue which prevented "Pride & Prejudice" to advance during General's execution if gore was toggled off in options
  • Fixed an issue when talking to Zahra about inviting Igor & Savana, where it would improperly continue to other dialogues

For the side quest "Will curiosity kill the Kat", I'm stuck on "Wait for her to visit you". No matter how many days I skip and other repeatable scenes that I do, it doesn't come up. Is this next step bugged or waiting for the next update?

No, it's not like that... it's like the eyes are cartoonishly huge, furthermore the irises looks off to me, like the eyes of dolls in the 90's
I really like the eyes personnally, especially the colors. Most dark skinned women in the game have very light brown eyes, sometimes close to yellow, and even if it's not the most realistic thing I always found that captivating in that game. Even before I played it, those eye colors in the screenshots really intrigued me. Maybe they're a little big, but it never bothered me and they probably are like that to emphasize the colors and expressions.
