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

Now that this game is done downloading after about four or so hours, time to fire this puppy and see what happens, hopefully my old rig can play this game.

Well the game works and so far I have to say it does not disappoint and I have to say that giving the option for blood and gore or not at the start of the game is a good move, but it's time to eat so I will be playing this game later on I just want to give my initial impression of this game and I have to say the graphics, music and flow of the story is top notch, well done.

How far did you get at the first run?

IDK, would you count Hive Girl as a LI? If so, would her being consumed constitute vore? Does vore of the MC's LI count as NTR? The greater questions of the universe may never be answered.

At this moment in time. I hate to say it but if hive girl fucked your neighbor it wouldn't count as ntr or cheating because she has nothing to do with you besides saying "You, think im cute you'd like to cupolate with me? Not interested. Follow me." Basically.
-sorry pet peve of mine how the ntr tag is so overused and undersaturated. Many games on this site are marked as ntr. If there is any sex between anyone not involving the mc wether the mc even knows the girl getting plowed or not.

I don't enjoy ntr either ntr really but i can obviously deal with one of them a little better. But, as i've played many games im forced to dabble in the ntr tags now and judge for myself if it constitutes or not and over 65% of the time the game has no ntr content but the 35% im forced to annoy myself.
And of course by no ntr content with the tag i mean there is none. Not avoidable or otherwise its just mis used for wrong reasons such as sharing or swinging. and of, course the if anyone but main character has sex its ntr. Reasons.

Um, OK? You do realize I was making a joke and not actually claiming there was NTR in the game or anything, right?

Yes obviously but judging from the missus of said tag many people reading your obvious joke would be like.. he has a point. THAT being said this game will likely hold the NTR tag in near future anyway going by current story arc.
-note is also why i said sorry and it's a pet peve of mine i can't help but mention it and try to spread the true meaning of ntr to any place i can in this forum so the tag can be used properly.

The romance paths are well done, and the hinting at pregnancy options is nice. Also, Shani is drop dead gorgeous.

 

[arzal]

This is game is freakin good. I love this kinda story..

 

[COOLMASTER]

Electronic game did we call back pac man ??

 

[Kargan3033]

Enjoying the story so far. Really like how the domination plays out. Feels just right and not over the top or weak.

Now that I have played this fine game for a bit I very much agree with you on how natural the dominance in this game does seems.

wife name changed but sleep icon name still old name

Yea there are also times when shani is called shani even with name changed as well. or the whole adopted conversation with relationship change. though on the latter im sure you'd need an ACTUAL patch to fix.

Choices have consequences in this game, and the different endings we are (slowly) working towards, will reflect those choices.
Given the nature of these games, and the structure we are necessarily bound by, choices often result in certain content not being available. Sometimes the difference is minimal and a choice can make something appear at a later time rather than immediately, sometimes the difference is flavour over substance (but in a game that is at least in part roleplaying, such flavour can paint a character's vibe in very different ways). Other times, the choice has radical consequences, both in terms of content accessibility and story. Overall we do notify the player when the latter is the case (I wouldn't but Z is a softie).
Structurally this is not different than the majority of the games here, except maybe with less grinding and no instances of missing content because you didn't show up somewhere at the right time of the day/week.
Whether this makes it a game or not, that's for everybody to determine for themselves.

To many games have simple right and wrong choices in my honest oppinion. That's why i enjoy the flavor choices in this game as well as the obvious right and wrong ones. Although i implore the developer to try and remove those as well like in earlier suggestions. You could go ill work with everyone route of course and it seems like that is where this game is leading but for replay ability along with the flavor choices lock outs that also lock in additional content, to access different scene's would be nice as well. Such as the leaving the elf girl to be eaten or killing them which seems to have no negative consequences aside from the lock out of the mutants. But it doesn't necessarily get you in good with the cannibals either. upholding your end of whatever this contract is doesn't seem to have any consequences for not doing so is what I'm saying . As well as no benefits to upholding it. So why is it mentioned in the first place

I disagree with removal of certain type of choices.
Nuanced and clear cut choices both have a place in how you want to play it.
Not everything is clear cut just as not everything is nuanced.
But in the end, I hope the creator makes whatever they have in their vision.

gonna take like a decade for this game to finish huh? a small bug fix uptades every3-6 months and no story progression or new content at all

 

[mrttao]

You can't play a book, so no I haven't. All you can do in these types of so called games is click 5 million times to progress a set story, so it's no different than flipping a page in a childs choose your own adventure book that no matter which path you take, it always has the same ending.

Desert Stalker is not a Kinetic Novel where your choices are meaningless.
While there are certainly plenty of KNs out there, walking simulators, etc. This is not an example of one.
In this game, Desert Stalker, your choices make meaningful alterations to the world

This is a demonstrably false statement in each and every part. 8 releases do not fit in 1 year if you release once every 2-3, let alone 6 months. The last update has 2-3 major plot/character developments.
I'm going to assume you either never played the game or posted this on the wrong thread

Yeah, I don't know where that original comment came from. This game has moved along at a steady clip. We've come a long way from the early days of our first raider encounter. So much has happened. I don't know why anyone would be concerned about the finish line just yet. Things are really getting interesting right now and I would be sad if it ended too quickly.

Unlike a standard F95 game with a teen sleep creep who pervs on his landlady and roommates, this game has a lot of potential for future stories. Even after you have progressed with your main LIs, there are so many more plotlines to explore and adventures to be had.

100% agree with you. I don't want this to end any time soon. Such a good story and way more unique than a lot of the garbage we see here. Plus, the unique look of the characters...I don't think I've seen them before in any other game. So much more to explore with this.

just confirm that the baby might be his ! DO NOT END the game when its just getting good and be like forgotten paradise.. just got an alien daughter and the dev rush the end..
