Desert Stalker 0.15c (Patreon)

Howdy once again, 0.15 is ready, after a shorter dev period this time around. We have given the game a lot of love-taps with this update,  and aside from new content we have about a full page of overdue  bugfixes and improvements to the overall look of the game. You can find  the full list in the changelog!

That said, hope you enjoy. Part 1 of Sekhmet's Legion has finally  being added, and I think you will understand why it took an additional  update to finish. ;p

Thank you guys a ton for the great and continuous support, and for the years of reporting all the bugs and rough edges.

Full version:PC & Linux: Gofile (0.15c)Mac: Gofile (0.15c)Android: Gofile (0.15c)Note: We upgraded to RenPy 7.6.3 for Android to make use of its new experimental Sync feature. In theory it should allow for easier save migration in the future, as you can use it to upload your saves on a server and download them on another device. Since it's still an experimental feature though, there might be some issues with it. If you try it, let us know how it went.
