Desert Stalker 0.05 (Patreon)

Here it is!  As promised, here's the release of Version 0.05.

I don't think there's much to say other than that we hope that you enjoy this update.   

Content-wise, there's a bit of everything. Especially in this update I recommend playing with audio and sound on.

I want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank everyone who supports this project, those who stayed with us from the start as well as our newer supporters. You can already see that the picture quality is improving constantly, that is because I can afford better hardware thanks to you.

I will also make an announcement, in a few days, regarding the future development targets and projects. But before that, enjoy the update!

How to enable the Quickmenu: "Preferences" -> "Quick menu" -> "on"

Note: Due to a rework of the UI and the general structure of the game, a patch to update the game from 0.04 to 0.05 is not available this time around. You will have to download the newest version and play from the start. We recommend deleting the old game files you have on your computer before unpacking the newest version. Old saves will not work.

Installing the patch: Replace the "game" folder with the one in your existing game file.
