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

[Abduxuel]

This is a really beautiful game which I am running with WINE on Linux because, when I tried to execute the game using the game's Ren'Py script it wouldn't start the game natively in the usual and expected manner: the script was executable by returned errors questioning the directory structure of the game which I won't bother to repeat. Runs fine under WINE, although starts very slowly, but not on Linux normally. Is it my workstation to blame or is it a commonly known issue? Cheers in advance for any replies.

Don't know if it helps, but you could try

. From what I gather is, that his torrent are for Win/Lin/Mac altogether, so it could work. Other than that I have no clue - also Win user or better no Linux avaivable to test, so can't help better than that.

something wrong with your setup, on my Ubuntu 20.04 it runs without any problems

Thank you! Once the game starts up it runs fine on Linux, under WINE, and so I think I'll press on with that and maybe give the torrent you recommended a go if play gets too sluggish. Beautiful art in this particular game, really absolutely top notch. I'm really happy to have discovered it and am going to enjoy the heck out of playing it.

The Deluca Family has a clearly alot of potential to be a much greater Game as it is now.

The Characters are greatly written especially the backstory of Luna and her Behavior in the present time.
Gracie needs a bit more Story but overall she is nice to have.
Isabel is very tempting, and her Backstory makes her interesting.
MC himself is making his way in Missions and asks himself and any other possbile Way why he is in the Family.

There is so much content that can be build in. I dont why the developer drops this project so far behind. He could earn alot of money from this game when he continue as before. He said himself 3 to 4 Months would be good for one Update. I think thats a good amount of time to do this. But Iam not angry about this. I just find it hard to understand. And clearly it is nice that this game wasnt dropped.

The dramatic Story is good and on point. And for a Mafia Visual Novel this one is far better than the most. Because you can take this VN in a more serious way.

Glad ya like it!

It is not that I don't want to release faster, but due to how busy my life is, it makes it harder to work on this as I really want to.
But I am planning to release on steam and once I go steam it will kind of change the dynamic. Hopefully I can get the timeframe I really wish for!

Nothing yet. Still trying to think of some good ways to do it. Splitting the current game into 3 episodes where 3 episodes is 1 season etc.
Still thinking about the hows heh!

This will be good for the game, no worries !

As far as I know, there aren't any restrictions that Patreon doesn't already have.
Not 100 on this, tho.

Well, for totally unrelated reasons - Steam not introducing appropriate age checking past "tell me you are old enough" - it won't be available in Germany as an example. Then again, unless you close Patreon down, you won't lose anything by getting those who are not blocked.

I mean whatever restrictions they may have they do not prevent Bad Memories which has incest and teen LIs or My New Memories which has the same.

I mean I even paid for both of those on Steam with PayPal (haha fuck Patreon)




PEACE

I can see why you would think that. It is a tough event I've heard, hehe.
But shouldn't be a problem. In media, any hard topics are fine as long as it is not glorified.

Thanks for clarification, Your Words doesnt sound like a lie. So Iam Sorry for my Words and doubts here and there.

Then I wish you the best of Luck in the developing of the Game. If it works with steam releases you should be good with the goal of 3 to 4 Months for one Release. And also take your time, when you really want to focus on a perfect release of one update then so be it.


Keep up the work when it comes to the backstory of characters. That works really damn Well. It gives the characters more life.
Iam Happy to write more about your game when you release more. Words of Fans are damn important to keep the spirit of the community alive and also for the motivation of the developer. So dont give up and I wish you the best.

HopesGaming Honestly, for steam, I don't think you should split the game up and instead should release it as a whole on steam. Unlike Being a Dik, where each episode ends and if a new episode wasn't released, you can't continue on, DeLuca was designed to not have episodes and instead have a main quest line with side quests. So I feel like with this game, it should be based on season's where once you're fully done with all content for the season, then you release said season onto steam.
