Time to give Shani some attention! After the longer break right after  0.12 we're coming back with a more laborious and bigger update this  time around. With about 1,000 renders we've reached a personal highscore  as far as releases go. Get ready for some surprises when playing this one.

0.13c includes translation updates, minor changes, and finally the reworked Ain punishment (d5g). Pietro had ideas in mind in how to improve the scene, however we ran into fatal issues at the end including file losses... So please understand that for now it remains a visual rework only.

Full version:PC: Pixeldrain (0.13c)Mac: Pixeldrain (0.13c)Android: Pixeldrain (0.13c)

Then I know what I'm doing tonight. Good job, thank you.

I get the unfortunate pop up "'DesertStalker' cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware." Does anyone know how to proceed beyond this? The last version worked when downloaded via megasync, no such luck with pixeldrain

Ken

Awesome! I am so excited. IIRC, the original WIP mentioned a redo of the Ain punishment scene. Is that still in this update, or in a future one? Not a huge deal cause I know how much new stuff is in this, just curious! Thanks for all the harda work!

Zetan

It will come in this version yes. Were having some last minute issues :| but in the next patch most likely (0.13c)

Ken

Awesome! That is very exciting. Another reason to start again! :) And completely understandable that sometimes things get delayed.

Having trouble updating it on android. Keeps saying "package conflicts with existing package"

Zetan

okay, I will ask around and look into it

Zetan

try this one, maybe it works now? If not then it has to do with the renpy version...

Tyrranus Lord

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit that queen/shani/MC scene was fuckin ***HOT***

Bjorn15

Unfortunately it didn't work and I got the same problem

Oracle

Thanks! Great stuff! Felt a little short, but it was all quality and didn't feel at all like filler, so a thumbs up from me! Looking forward to planned updates!

SomeGuy

I'm also running into this issue on Android

Zetan

I honestly don't know why this issue exists, sorry. We are doing the same thing like usual. Maybe it has to do with the renpy version. It may take some days until we find a fix for it :/

There were some supporters complaining that despite the fact that they were patrons, others were getting early versions of the game for free. Some of them even stopped supporting Zetan as a result. I certainly understand their frustration. However, I see it differently. I'm not paying for special privilege or early access. I'm paying to support the development of this story. If other people get it for free, then I hope they enjoy it as much as I have. I've upped my membership level after this latest update a show of support for Z and his team.There are a ton of people out here (both patrons and freebies) who love and support this project.

SomeGuy

Eh, shit happens. Looking forward to the update!

2026-10-04 19:00 I now understand why this update took so long. There are so many new scenes and every one of them is rendered beautiful. I swear, I'd finish a scene and think to myself "Welp. I guess that's the end of the update" only to skip to the next day and be pleasantly surprised with a new scene. I'm going to be a little sad when I run out of content, but that just speaks to the writing and storytelling of this game. Keep up the amazing work!
