Ren'Py Desert Stalker [v0.19.4] [Zetan]

[Aqua546]

The more I see of this game the more I like it. Cant wait to see more.

 

[m4pII]

It a very good plot.
The game just gets better with every update.

 

[Rory Smith]

Got latest version Android apk. 397 mb

 

[Niels Holgersson]

Where is the WT/Cheat for the newest version?

 

[m4pII]

if you have played the game and are not certain, I'm interested genuinely in hearing your opinion on the matter.. is she? is she not? what supports your thoughts on the matter?

the plot is moving forward and she's at a crucial stage in her life, so what her status towards the MC is today might change/develop.. choices can be made by the MC/player that might affect this... as of today?
I'd say.. I feel the plot makes her role fairly clear, and shows she has potential in many directions.. any more than that, I'd rather debate on the discord.

Yes, the alerts "Shani will remember this", a meeting with the queen, her perspective, the ability to make decisions on her behalf, seem to hint quite obviously that at the end of the story the sum of her decisions and the decisions of the MC will decide their common fate and possibly the fate of the game world ...

Once again I will write that here a very good plot is perfectly complemented by a unique game world.

Honestly, it seems a bit confusing to me at this point, that's why I asked the question. The plot is moving in a way such that she can't be a "part of the harem" if she wants to follow in her father's/stepfather's footsteps. The whole deal with Abrax and the uncharted zone does not help answer that question as well and further seems to complicate things. Tbh, she is my favorite girl so to speak, if she isn't a romanceable character moving forward, that would be quite the gut punch for me at least. Even so, the complexity of it all is quite commendable.

 

[Naxos]

yeah.. no.. that's not how any of this works.. I'm not here to pander to people's ignorance .. if people want to throw around terms like NTR, it's on them to know what it actually means. They're literally on the internet so have no excuse.

That's part of the issue, everyone has their own definition of what NTR is or is not on both sides of the fence. I'm not saying there is NTR in the game, just commenting on the fact everyone has their own view on what it is.

Paz and I are both in the dev team.. you may assume we know what we talk about when it comes to DS

I'm pretty sure I recall you saying in an earlier post, that you don't know everything Zaltan plans it implement. So unless this has changed, I'll assume you don't know what you're talking about, at least when it comes to the future content, current sure, but not future.

I would say...let's find out as the plot develops.
we have plans for her... you'll understand if I don't spoil them just yet.

Didn't arrived to the new part yet but that UI rework is pretty nice

Btw I usualy play without sounds but since it was nicely asked I let it on, that nuclear winter.mp3 is fucking nice idk if it's a team made music or not but I like it

As for the NTR drama both are rights in my eyes :
Originaly NTR is an unwilling share, but people over there tend to tag NTR as long as female char have intercourse with other than the mc so...

At least it is lore friendly in this game so hard to complain

Personaly I don't care as long as it's optionnal, even if sure I would like to have the scenes with the mc rather than skip it but heh

(Sorry for my engrish, I'm trying )

 

[Cynicaladm]

you can assume that when I make a statement concerning the game, it's pretty much a fact.. and that when I don't know because it depends on Z's decisions on any given topic, I will make sure to point that out.
On the few occasion that my facts were wrong, Zetan has been quick to fact check me publicly.. and I have no problem with it.
there are things I know,.. that Z is not a fan of NTR is one of them (neither am I)... it is evident that people's opinion on what constitutes ntr is varied.
I have outlined my thought on the matter, but rather hilariously my post has been removed for being off topic (which is bizzarre, but who cares).

So now have to wait for more time to see the update as the game got sharing option to wow
Didn't thought developer will do that
But is there any reason why he added sharing in the middle of the game
Did His patreon asked him to do
Or he just decided to add sharing to get more support
In my opinion it's totally bad idea now he will take more time in making unwanted scenes
And I don't think he even has ntr support as his game didn't give a single clue for that in start

 

[Papa Black Hawk]

I'm not an expert but seems OK to me no error listed what would cause a crash I think it may really be a win problem maybe even a graphic card related thing with the display resulution but personally never run into this problem with renpy.
But had a similar problem with a Japanese vn where the game always crashed at start while my display frequency was set to 60 Hz had to set it manually to 59 and then it worked.

the previous version worked perfectly. that's why I'm so surprised

View attachment 1225596

yeah.. a couple other players have encountered the same issue..
there's a substantial difference between previous versions and the latest one, in terms of UI, which has been reworked entirely,.
I believe the cause is on your end..something about settings or compatibility... but there should be a fix for it (I genuinely know nothing about it though)

Sharing or whoring your property (women, pets, slaves) in a game world in which sex slavery and rape are common things is not a strange occurrence nor some dev conspiracy to cuck you.
To clarify things a bit, there is no NTR in the game, nobody can steal your waifus here, everything will be fine.

Does anyone know how to discuss the map with Shani and the Queen's new task? I've slept for a couple of days now, but I haven't seen an exclamation mark anywhere.

neither.. the patreons have 0 input on what directions the game goes in.
we added the scene because it fits the setting. it is consistent with how the world of Zeta operates and how that society works.
since we have made the whole thing optional in any and all of its parts, neither the NTR brigade nor the anti-NTR brigade get to have a say on the matter. You don't like it? send one to bed and have the other serve some tea.
there.. no scene happened.
as for how the dev allocates his time.. on 700+ renders that were in this update, about 10, maybe, are dedicated to those particular options.
you don't get to have a say.

I thought it was weird since the other quest had the usual "to be continued", while the 2 main quests I mentioned didn't. Thank you for letting me know.

 

[Misosoc]

Is there an Android port out for v5? Didn't see a link on home page. Thank you in advance
