Ren'Py - Abandoned - The DeLuca Family [Season 1] [HopesGaming]

This is definitely up there for me with some of the best, I especially like how unique it is. Some renders are far and away some of the most well made I've seen. Each of the characters has personality though admittedly, some devolve at points to simple boring stereotypes. These are few however and overall don't take away much from the game, definitely a good one for sure.

I honestly think that this is one of the best erotic games I've ever played. The story is very interesting and I actually want to know how it continues. The characters all have their own personality which developes/changes through out the game, which is great.

I have to say, even though I only got about 2 hours of play time before I reached the end of current content I see this really being a good game given some time. The only reason its getting 4 stars instead of 5 is because I was hoping it was going to be a bit longer at this point.

I really like the direction he is going with character progression being drawn out and adding of more story and and an actual building of relationships. I never really enjoyed the games that after a week or a few days its all "I love you we have been through so much together lets fuck endlessly". The dream images being the only sexual content so far really makes me happy as it is leading to more natural progression of relationships.

The renders are great though I would like to see a bit better animating. The characters look gorgeous and the backdrops are well done.

The story has some kinks but overall is fantastic, I'm confused as fuck when it comes to main story just like MC and I'm 100% ok with that just keeps me wanting the updates to come along so we can start piecing things together.

Some of the Menus seem a bit clunky and definitely have some improvement that I'm sure will come with time.

This is the first creator I have subscribed to on patreon and I really hope he gets the support this game deserves so we can get quality timely updates, always makes me sad when games like this take months for updates.

Not really sure I can adequately describe how great this game is. It's got great story telling and intrigue. Even when MC is told a "truth" part of you is still suspicious that the truth may not be more than a lie. The characters are well developed and each interesting in their own way. If you are uncertain about this game, don't be. Download and fire it up.

BEST GAME SO FAR!!! I'm looking more for another update 'w'

The Mafia-based story with a lot of MC background history with romance story of the family members is so great. The free roam system and event feature it helps alot for player. Oh, and i very love the artwork everytime player finished a family's member event. Thanks for putting on so much work on creating this game. Keep up the good work.

Do you have a sense of pride? humor? or just fooling around...then you found a treasure my friend.. Nice heroines,renders,character progression and hell..
Playing as an Mafia member gave me a sense of honor and duty..and all of that is just the appetizer..wait till you read the story..

Let me start by saying that alot of effor has been put into this game, and even in its current stage has become a favorite! The script and story of the game are simply incredibly good! Romance progresses organically and not abruptly. Dialogues are well thought and well written (some rare spelling mistakes, but I am guessing these will be refined and the script proof-read in the final version).

On the one hand the sexual content at this point is minimal (that is not necessarily bad, as it fits the story, but if you are looking for something heavy in sex, this is not it), however the scenes you get are fitting for the current story progression.

Even at its current stage of development, this is story-rich and captivating. Keep up the good work and keep us updated

Daaaaamn.

Like the art. Not perfect, but very appealing.
LOVE the writing. Narrative voice is great, plotting is good, and characterization is almost too strong for a porn game in that it makes me care more about the characters than the prospect of seeing boobs. The violence isn't offputting, the kooky character isn't annoying, and the humor lands. Never seen that before.

Currently light on porn content, but as I said above I didn't miss it.

Only real gripe I have is a bit of story-gameplay disconnect; I got to a point in the story where the MC gets his ass beat but my stats were those of a seasoned grunt who should have been more than capable of pulling the gun I had him equipped with instead of whining on the floor.

TLDR: Moar plz.

i made a review on v0.3:
there are so many games out there - some have awesome stories, others have awesome gameplays, another group has awesome renderings and also some got awesome sounds in it - and to be really honest: TDF is the first game since long time who perfectly matches all of them. Its also kind of different from all other games. Of course this all can be messed up in future updates, but for now i really cant find ANY negative points about it, even if i always try to be objective and want to give constructive critics.
As much as i searched something to feed back to improve -> i could not find anything!

(this is by far the best recommendation i ever made )

One of the best game.
The story and the characters are excellent, the lights are really good poses are fine albeit a little stiff (but at least they aren't always the basic poses you see in all the games) .
The downsides are that there is not enough sex scenes and that the story is focused on one of the girl (but there is character progression for everyone).

Really great game, hope theire will be more scenes (even if it on dead end path)

Play this game for it's story, it's quirkiness, sexiness and romantic dialogues and lovely intimate scenes.
If you are here for incest or hardcore porn, you would be disappointed, the story and relationship between the girls and MC builds up nice and slow, yet not boring at all, even with no sex scene until the 3b update, I have no complaints and didn't feel bored anytime.

Youre a normal guy.. bla bla.. mafia contract.. yada yada... two sisters.. ble ble.. hot mommy... hmm hmm ... there´s a sister in law.. bla bla..
Wait, something is wrong. Where´s the incest patch? No incest patch? What?
Let me start over. Youre under contract with some sort of criminals/mob/mafia, a mix of italian and japanese cultures and there are four hotties in a house to pursue.
The game is some sort of free roaming thing with quests. It kinda works because of a quest log that says exactly what you have to do next to progress the story, but then again, if youre gonna spill it out, why not make a VN out of it straigh away?
The story itself develops with each character as you fulfill their quests. It is well made, theres a focus on the story element with sex on the side. It´s going slow and i like it.
Overall its still a bit short, like the 0.03 inplies, but worth a try no doubt.

For the early development stage the game is in, it is incredibly well made. The character models are great and very detailed, also the story is very promising. From the first minutes I started playing this game I was hooked up, the creator seems to be very capable.

There's a reason Deluca has been on everyone's lips the past few months. This is one of the few games that prioritizes story over mindless sex. The story of Deluca Family is captivating, at times you forget that you're playing an adult game and are simply trying to advance the story to find out what happens next.

Of course you then see some of the lovely ladies in a flattering position and are reminded that you're here to give them a taste of your cannoli.

Luna either means "moon" or is short for "lunatic". Either way, best girl.

A good game indeed.Stands firm with the ratings so far.. story plot seems stable and promising.. The game is a bit slow and demands more character.. Lot of actions packed renders seems to be missing since this is mafia related game.. Equipping the main character is good but that dress-up does not change with the character profile as the changing stats (just a suggestion).. A very good game anyhow. would love to follow for future updates.. keep up the good work guys..

Loved the characters, beautiful art and overall nice and different feel compared to lot of other VN. It is very well written and I felt like the pace of the story was spot on, at least for me.
Luna is one of my favourite characters in VN ever. She is beautiful, strong and unexpected. But deep down she still has that beautiful innocence. Seeing her break out of her hard shell and slowly transforming into a beautiful strong young woman that she really is really well done.
Thank you and cant wait for more content.

Despite the games lack of constant update and content so far, the characters are well written. Not only that each character personality stands out which makes this game more enjoyable. Can't wait for Hopegaming to update this game more. Need more support for this game

This is one of the best game in this site.
So this is my rating for this game:

Story/Writing 5/5
Characters 5/5
Graphics 4/5
Idea/Plot 5/5

This is the kind of game that you play and feel sad when you reach the end of the current content.

AMAZING!
good writing (with decent amount of humour). good graphics. very smooth gameplay (no grinding!). this game has two game modes-storymode+free roaming mode(sandbox)! really interesting and engaging storyline(involving mafia). action packed. what more can one ask for? i would have given this 6 stars but unfortunately my hands are tied.
recommended to everyone(try this one out if you haven't already).

The game has a great balance of making you work for the rewards instead of just handing them out. Clear, easy to follow hints/instructions to finish the quests. Last but not least, a really well written thriller of a story that keeps the players enthralled in its suspense and mysteries.
