VN Ren'Py Abandoned Red Lucy [v0.9] [LeFrench]

[WICKEDp4th]

he probably regretted making a game, and now he continues posting wallpapers

Well, the Dev Gumdrop made a well paid job out of it. All he released for almost 2 years was Wallpapers and well written letters why he couldn't release an Update to his game this month again. 9.000 to 10.000 USD before taxes every month.

Another month gone and no update is in sight.

We don't even care about updates, we just want a lot more wallpapers in HD/FULL HD/2K/4K

damn dudes
dont you know nothing about RL of (popular) indie adult games developers?
this champ most probably right now as a volunter-medic in ukraine is saving lives, helps earthquakes victims in east asia, fights dangerous and mutated diseases in africa, negotiate with drug lords in central america, attends numerous funerals of his moms and pops all around the world...
give him some break, doh!
after all, he is doing the most demanding and dangerous job that ever existed on earth - avn developer!

Did anyone help you out with this? I am running EndeavourOS (Arch based distro) and get the identical error.

I tried running it in a qemu virtual machine (both debian 12 and Fedora 38) and it ran. However, it was very slow with the graphics transitions taking a while, making the playing experience rather poor. I found a solution in running it in a DistroBox container. I used a debian12 container, copied the zip file into the container filespace (/usr/local/games), installed unzip, extracted the files, and then ran the .sh file. It ran just fine with native graphics speed and sound. You do have to execute the "xhost +si:localuser:$USER" command on the host before starting the container.

Hopefully this helps you out. I have a couple of other games giving me the same issue, and will try them out on DistroBox as well. I do not have this issue with most other games, and I don't know why Red Lucy and a couple of others do this.

This is a little bit of a necro but found an easier solution to this error in case anyone else is getting the same problem on whatever linux distro. (I'm on EndeavourOS too, for the record)

Problem: The game crashes on startup with a traceback containing...
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'LifoQueue'

To fix this, open the /lib/python2.7 folder within the Red Lucy directory. There should be a queue folder in there. Delete it or rename it.

Game should run now.

How come this game went from 1 decent update every 2 weeks - 1 month, to barely an update or 2 per year?

Nice catch. I did as you suggested, and viola it works. I tried it in another game that fails in the same way, and that worked as well.

That is the tipical developer curse. Wait until real issues comes. Have a baby, get divorced, moving to another country, pc broke and so on. The resons are infinite.

Being an AVN developer is either the most dangerous job in the world, or the most unluckiest. Or both. I've had a few ideas and thought about doing one myself. But I have enough shit in my life already, don't want all the other stuff as well.

Abandon?

 

[tmu500]

why some people saying the game is abandoned, there is no post from the dev?

Hello everyone,

Just a quick update about what's coming after the Content Update!

Weekly Progress Updates: Great news for €1+ tiers and above! We'll be posting weekly updates featuring a progress image showing you the percentage complete for the next update. The picture featured may not be suited for public guidelines.

Things like: Story (Writing) Renders Animations Code Music & Sound Testing Overall

The Future of Choices: Your choice of love interest will have a HUGE impact on the story going forward, leading to branching narratives based on your decisions that may lead to vastly different outcomes. But the main line remains if all of them are chosen as planned from the start. The branching starts in this coming update.

Important Note: Remember, December Patrons and above will still receive the upcoming content update as promised earlier!

Stay tuned for more, and thanks for being awesome!

I guess we should be used to devs running out of steam, but this one didn't even take that long.

sadly seems that way from what I read. idk I didn't play the last update since I heard it was only about 10 minutes of content

I read once the dev was already having financial difficulties with the game but I don't think being this quiet is really going to help.
He was already fighting an uphill battle to gain patrons.

Maybe he talks more on discord?

He does, and there is a patreon discord channel, which he might be more privy to talking in, but I can't say for sure. Mainly though, it's just his community and other devs making memes. He said before in this forum actually, that he's trying to find his groove, he does alot of experimenting also, because he only just started making renders not long before this games first release, I think.
