There is no route for Teak. There are Burry’s (Finished), Rune’s (Currently being worked on), and Max’s. But you can also flirt and maybe unlock something for Thistle and Alon.
Read with Thistle and Cooper. Keep reading until you reach the quote said in the hint. “The pinkest pink he had ever seen.”
I would look around while that line is up. Maybe somewhere in the barkness?
I think you should download v23, it contains everything from the previous builds. Every time there's a build out, it only adds to what's already in the game.
Build v24 is already out on Patreon, and I think it should be out for public soon!
I am pretty sure it might be fixed in the next update, or in a later patch. Raus probably put (Check out later) to tell readers, ‘I will come back to this part’.
I have a question about mana.
If every species’ mana is differently colored (i.e. Canine is Red or Avian is Yellow), what color is Human mana? Or will that be answered in a later version?
i got curious about that too, it was mentioned in the game that Luke can't see his own mana or what color it is, I think we're still pretty far to know more about Human's mana. I also hope we got a backstory about Luke's hometown and also his parents. there's a lot of things left unanswered and I want to know more.😫
Yes but in the fight with Teak it is implied that Luke and the Canines can sense human mana when it is released. So maybe they can tell Luke the color.
Can’t everyone sense all mana? In Max’s route, he says, “Take this!” after jabbing himself, but the text right after says “There’s nothing there, but I can sense the Canine mana.”
It’s just Humans that can’t see it. At least from Luke’s perspective.
To be clear, all species can sense it to various degree of precision, and of course trained magic user can sense the different mana in the air as Max does, as he can tell what mana is within the bomb just using his nose. Humans are the only one to have the ability to visually see it as colorful energy, and it is hinted that they have a innate flexibility when it comes to using it.
If human mana had a color, maybe white? because you know: white is all the color at the same time, human mana is about perceiving the entire truth...
Just wanted to say I have supported this game for a while and have been playing since V0.6 and have been really enjoying it.
I am just stuck on one To Do - Check out the human dong version of rune's noon scene. How do you get this to change? Is this option still in the build?
Yes it still is. If you haven’t unlocked it, all you have to do is decline Rune when he asks you to watch him. Keep declining him.
If you have, just revisit Rune at Noon.
okay, I re-played Shelter. I forgot that my lovely Cooper is OUTSIDE. What's gonna happen to him 😭. Also I visualized Luke doing this pose when he said "I AM shelter!" , gives me chills whenever I think about it and made me tear up a bit for some reason.
I'm kinda late cause I've been very busy T_T anyway, again, Raus, your story is reeallly good, everything is superb. And we got to see Rune's and Luke's backstory which builds up and understand their character a lot more and I loved it! Also my Thistle, is he really gone? T_T. Sorry and I'm gonna say it again because I really am impressed and love Shelter. characters? 10/10 Lore? definitely 10000/10. One of the best story I have ever read/played ig. I'll keep Shelter with me forever I'm not joking. 😇
It's pretty easy and I recommend doing it on your own, but if somehow you still aren't able to figure it out, Alon will give you a game breaking hint during Coordination Barkest Corner, and that will make that whole puzzle absolutely trivial.
When going into this game I just wanted to see lewd content thinking that the story wasn't going to be good.
I was a complete dumbass for thinking that. It has some good lewd but the story actually got me invested in the lore. Which is rare for a lewd VN. Even the characters are enjoyable some more than others. The art is also enjoyable to look at and the muscles on the bigger characters aren't too exaggerated. I give this game a fair 9/10. I hope to see more updates and I might support it over on Patron some day.
Same here! I actually wasn't (still am not? I'm not sure) into furry either. I was just looking for a game with some lewd content, then I found this and was like "Whatever, let's just try it."
I didn't expect to like the game this much. I love the characters, the setting and the plot so far. The art is gorgeous. It's among my favorite games atm (and it encouraged me to check out some other furry games).
Lots of people come to read these kinds of VNs for just the NSFW parts, but most (if not all) realize that so much time, work, and very good storytelling comes into these sorts of stories.
same! I downloaded this just because of lewd but we got an amazing story instead, and I'm here for it! I really like reading and when I played this like way before, I really loved it because of the story. the concept, the lore, characters, setting, everything is great! And also the SOUNDTRACKS OMFG RAUS YOU'RE SO GOOD IM ASTONISHED I REALLY LOVE EVERYTHING ( I hope you see this lmao). And now my first priority here is the story, and secondly is the lewd hehe, but yeah I really love shelter its really great would really give it a 1000000/10 ❤
is there a chance we can find the route for Cooper in the future? its really cute of him to getting flustered when Luke is around.seems like he has feelings for the human~ it really makes me curious and wanted to dig more about Cooper now. So exciting! >w<
Hey, in Burry route, there is this term: ablaze. I understood that it was a magical phenomena people go through under from what I assumed great stress and pain, given that Burry was considered gifted at doing so on his experiment subject. But what does it mean? what does happen during an Ablaze?
Hey, here is the link to the wikia i found about Shelter. If you feel like adding details, for those who have a hard time grasping the concept revolving around mana especially, i encourage you to participate. It may be stupid, but i genuinely don't know if many know about it
I play while translating using the app, but I can't read the characters well because the parts other than the character's conversation are assimilated with the background.
If possible, would you please put a black frame like the character's conversation?
I'm sorry if the English text is strange because I use Google Translate.
Hey, since i'm a lore addict, does anyone can answer me a few question?
first of all, what are all of the species inborn power?
secondly, i think there is a mana usage level on Luke chart that wasn't shown. what is it?
and thirdly: Luke said that Shelter and the area around lacked natural mana in the atmosphere. So does it mean that in more "normal" place, people can use embers and exotic mana from just the air itself?
Well, for what I have been seeing from rausmutt he seems to have a full comic series. It has a lot of lore, so you might want to check on his Patreon for his comics.
For the third question: According to what the VN says, shelter the building absorbs the mana that is created by them to power its systems. That’s why they get what is known as the Shelter sickness.
Other than that, there seems to be mana created by anyone, and it gets to stay in the atmosphere what I can guess is that, yes, mana seems to be more abundant on other places.
im pretty sure the game itself gives you tips of how to get to those scenes dosent it? it gives you tips of how to get to certin places/endings and youll probebly eventually get all the scenes if you take time to do what the tips say
Amazing VN. Disappointed in myself that I currently don't have the means to shoot Raus some dosh. Amazing work, excited to see future updates and i havent even gotten half-way through the to-do list. Love the work and effort put into Burry's path.
This is quite literally the most amazing vn i have ever played in my life. The ending with burry when you kick him in the snout BROKE ME. Like that made me feel so many emotions it felt like the emotions from the vn were being transmitted directly into my body. So in short this is amazing.
I wanna play the new patch for Rune's route but the other me telling me to wait longer for more Rune time in the future. I like Rune and Alon and their opposite personalities and now we're getting Rune story but for Alon I expect his route to be the last cause he might be the reason of power cut and knows so much about relics so it makes sense to be the last route to avoid spoilers on other routes of what exactly happened that night.
Is there any way we can tell you about bugs in the game? I found one and I was wondering where I could notify you.
The bug I found was in the after credits scene with Rune and Cooper when they talk about the new merch. When the text pops up with Cooper saying "......wait... what...?!", it shows the name 'collie' in all lowercase.
i updated but when i get to the beginning of the update with the shot of shelter and the monster outside, the game ends and goes to the start menu. Help please
If you had a bug that you would get two cables of the same color for the morning bomb disarming, download the build again. I reuploaded it with the fix just now :)
How exactly are you supposed to "witness runes mana balls" in the early morning ive been going through playthroughs over and over and can't find the option to do so. am I missing something that allows me to see that interaction? plz help. also how am I supposed to learn more of Alon's dark secrets in his conversation? do I need to find all of the mysterious figures first or something? if so how do I find mysterious figure in the corridor in the early afternoon?

How do we get to teak route?
There is no route for Teak. There are Burry’s (Finished), Rune’s (Currently being worked on), and Max’s. But you can also flirt and maybe unlock something for Thistle and Alon.
Ohh aright I gonna try and find a way to get Max's
I can't find the mysterious figure 5 in thistle someone help me 😐
Read with Thistle and Cooper. Keep reading until you reach the quote said in the hint. “The pinkest pink he had ever seen.” I would look around while that line is up. Maybe somewhere in the barkness?
[SPOILER]
It's possible to save Diesel and his friends in this build?
Yea but u will lose ya other friend
finally，love it
How do I get shot by a dog?
You will have to hang out with Max and don't flirt with thistle
thanks bud but do u know to do the puzzle on rune route?

Hello i can you tell me how to control the mana in Burry's route ?
kiss him when you cook with him
ow thank you so much..😁 i'll try that
v24 is without the 32bit executable, is there any reason for this
Should i download the first shelter or v23
I think you should download v23, it contains everything from the previous builds. Every time there's a build out, it only adds to what's already in the game.
Build v24 is already out on Patreon, and I think it should be out for public soon!
Ohh okay thankyou very much ♥️ (sorry for my bad english)
I can't find the mysterious figurine in Burry's kitchen 😣
Someone help please
I thought I saw a smudge of pink frosting on the oven at the left...

Baxter Rescue line seemed to be unavailable(Check out later). Is it a bug or sth?
I am pretty sure it might be fixed in the next update, or in a later patch. Raus probably put (Check out later) to tell readers, ‘I will come back to this part’.

True they can all sense it. I maybe only humans see it as color? It may also be that you don't 'see' your own mana as you are already used to it.
To be clear, all species can sense it to various degree of precision, and of course trained magic user can sense the different mana in the air as Max does, as he can tell what mana is within the bomb just using his nose. Humans are the only one to have the ability to visually see it as colorful energy, and it is hinted that they have a innate flexibility when it comes to using it.
If human mana had a color, maybe white? because you know: white is all the color at the same time, human mana is about perceiving the entire truth...

Would be cool if cooper was a romanceable character
That would be cool, although I would settle for just being able to rescue him from Teak stupidity.
Just wanted to say I have supported this game for a while and have been playing since V0.6 and have been really enjoying it.
I am just stuck on one To Do - Check out the human dong version of rune's noon scene. How do you get this to change?

Yes it still is. If you haven’t unlocked it, all you have to do is decline Rune when he asks you to watch him. Keep declining him. If you have, just revisit Rune at Noon.
Thank you for that. I was doing that but never tried kicking him before. I have it unlocked now.
okay, I re-played Shelter. I forgot that my lovely Cooper is OUTSIDE. What's gonna happen to him 😭. Also I visualized Luke doing this pose when he said "I AM shelter!" , gives me chills whenever I think about it and made me tear up a bit for some reason.
Haha that's a nice visualization! :D
We're gonna see Cooper again. I'm looking forward to that because he's my favorite boy :)
I'm kinda late cause I've been very busy T_T anyway, again, Raus, your story is reeallly good, everything is superb. And we got to see Rune's and Luke's backstory which builds up and understand their character a lot more and I loved it! Also my Thistle, is he really gone? T_T.

I'll keep Shelter with me forever I'm not joking. 😇
I would assume, as of right now, the ideal path for the Garden of Flesh scene is not possible without the inspire option, correct?
Any help for puzzle in version 23?
It's pretty easy and I recommend doing it on your own, but if somehow you still aren't able to figure it out, Alon will give you a game breaking hint during Coordination Barkest Corner, and that will make that whole puzzle absolutely trivial.
I thought you were just joking at first, then I saw how you could wait for the answer...

We got another one boys
What do you mean?
Lots of people come to read these kinds of VNs for just the NSFW parts, but most (if not all) realize that so much time, work, and very good storytelling comes into these sorts of stories.
Oooh, well in that case... check out: Sileos tales of a new dawn
and Minotaur Hotel. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.
Do you play as human MC in these two games?
Human in Minotaur Hotel and a Husky in Sileos tales of a new dawn.
same! I downloaded this just because of lewd but we got an amazing story instead, and I'm here for it! I really like reading and when I played this like way before, I really loved it because of the story. the concept, the lore, characters, setting, everything is great!

And now my first priority here is the story, and secondly is the lewd hehe, but yeah I really love shelter its really great would really give it a 1000000/10 ❤
This is really amazing game!!!
is there a chance we can find the route for Cooper in the future? its really cute of him to getting flustered when Luke is around.seems like he has feelings for the human~ it really makes me curious and wanted to dig more about Cooper now. So exciting! >w<
Hey, in Burry route, there is this term: ablaze. I understood that it was a magical phenomena people go through under from what I assumed great stress and pain, given that Burry was considered gifted at doing so on his experiment subject. But what does it mean? what does happen during an Ablaze?
Will the next update be the continuation of Rune's night? I love him so much!
Why not check out the Patreon page where you can already download V23!
Hey, here is the link to the wikia i found about Shelter. If you feel like adding details, for those who have a hard time grasping the concept revolving around mana especially, i encourage you to participate. It may be stupid, but i genuinely don't know if many know about it

The only thing Inu is related to SHELTER is the species, and mana
Anyone have a guide for all the steamy scenes?
Just play the game. Literally, that’s the only way to start unlocking those steamy scenes~.
im pretty sure the game itself gives you tips of how to get to those scenes dosent it? it gives you tips of how to get to certin places/endings and youll probebly eventually get all the scenes if you take time to do what the tips say
Amazing VN. Disappointed in myself that I currently don't have the means to shoot Raus some dosh. Amazing work, excited to see future updates and i havent even gotten half-way through the to-do list. Love the work and effort put into Burry's path.
How do I download on iOs
the apk do not work for cell phones with iOS system
o ok thanks for telling me
Out of all the visual novels out there this is still my personal favorite. Guter junge!
This is quite literally the most amazing vn i have ever played in my life. The ending with burry when you kick him in the snout BROKE ME. Like that made me feel so many emotions it felt like the emotions from the vn were being transmitted directly into my body. So in short this is amazing.

You can report stuff like that on our Discord server. Thanks for noticing that! I'll change it later
Will Thistle have his own path? I really like him.
uhm... I'm sure you might be devastated right now...
I loved the update! :) Thank you so much!
i updated but when i get to the beginning of the update with the shot of shelter and the monster outside, the game ends and goes to the start menu. Help please
Are you sure you played Rune's afternoon and not Max's?
Already fixed it but thanks
Amazing job on the build so far! Can't wait for the continuation of Rune's backstory~!
Awoo~!
This build is great and i wonder how things will turn out next, cant wait
If you had a bug that you would get two cables of the same color for the morning bomb disarming, download the build again. I reuploaded it with the fix just now :)
tomorrow is the day guys
the day is today, the time is now, awoo awoo, time to see doggos
Anyone know what is going on with version 0.22 I know it's probably on patreon but I was just wondering if there was any update on public release
Raus is going to post the public version on the 10th of May, so in a few days!
2 days left for V22, Baby!
How exactly are you supposed to "witness runes mana balls" in the early morning ive been going through playthroughs over and over and can't find the option to do so. am I missing something that allows me to see that interaction? plz help. also how am I supposed to learn more of Alon's dark secrets in his conversation? do I need to find all of the mysterious figures first or something? if so how do I find mysterious figure in the corridor in the early afternoon?
Don't press wack at all when u first use mana vision to get runes mana balls
