Desert Stalker [v0.18.0 Beta] [Zetan]

April 14, 2025F95

Desert Stalker puts you in control of a seasoned antiquity scavenger, a man whose main objective is finding rare objects in the ruins of civilization. When you uncover an artifact capable of not only informing the past but also shaping the future, everything changes.
Make major decisions about how you interact with the world around you, enter into erotic relationships, and live with the consequences of either dominating or saving both the people and landscape of post-apocalyptic Egypt.

v0.03

Major updates:

*1) Ain rework: This had to be done due to legal concerns. I know the character was popular before, but I wanted to make sure I won’t get in trouble where I live, so I made her more mature. I also cannot offer seperate versions for the same reasons. I’m sure you will like the updated character as much if not more. This was the reason for the delayed update

*2) Discord: My mods and me will still work on the discord channels and things may vary, but it’s up and running and open for discussions and WIP posts.

*3) Raider scene: Scene is optional, only minimally changed

*4) Figured out that it is possible without putting in much work after all. You guys were also right when you said that an RPG should have a choice there, so I put it back in.

v0.02

Giving the player more choices:

– added a censorship option

– added a relationship options

Reworked parts of Day 1:

– made the interaction with the crazy raider girl less extreme

(similar scene like in 0.01 planned for a future update, this was done to not scare off players from the get go.)

– edited the dialogue a bit and added a game over in scene 2

(The elve is a main character. Letting the player continue after killing her is pointless and only adds coding time I could save. The “decayed” event can also be started by buying her free.)

– changed some music tracks

(If you didn’t do it before; try playing with music and sound on, it took at least 20% of dev time)

Added Day 2 (End of prologue)

– 6 scenes in total.

(An introduction to the world, different characters and future NSFW scenes.

v0.01 Prologue

Initial Release

Features:

– Storytelling that focuses on a solid plot as well as the everyday life at home

– Optional filters to avoid almost all kinds of non-vanilla content

– Some of your decisions will ultimately alter the way the story goes

– Fully covered music and sound effects bringing more atmosphere to the game

– Freely selectable events and missions through the world map; no grinding mechanics whatsoever

As the game progresses, I am investing in the necessary resources to make it as pretty and engaging as I can. Paying for those improvements is where the bulk of your contributions come into play.

Developer Notes:

Desert Stalker will be a reasonably open gameplay experience that encourages multiple playthroughs with different optional paths like many classic roleplaying games. The game has an optional censor to hide controversial content like gore and excessive violence. If you like the idea of what I’m working on, feel free to support me through patreon or subscribestar. Cheers!
