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

[MakkAnzy]

Um.. why didn't he do that straight away when you know.. he stopped working on it? why did it take months.. and he didn't even apologise.

You are absolutely right. For a short break or a vacation I wouldn't mind to continue paying for Patreon during these, a dev deserves to take a reasonable time of paid vacation. But a long break from game development with complete radio silence like HG did? Nope. The right thing to do would have been to pause Patreon, particularly with the Steam income pouring in, and communicate his intentions. If it was something serious and personal, most of the supporters would have understood if he had said so.

Like other deves do, PhillyGames (Depraved Awakening and City of Broken Dreamers) for example handled this properly. His Patreon payments are still paused and he is still engaged with the fans. Granted he has 2 full games selling on steam now, so Patreon income is not what it used to be for him, but still...

I think now HG is trying to make up for it by pausing Patreaon and working on the game without that support. It is damage control at this point. Is that enough? Some may think it is, others may feel that it is too little too late... Personally, I'm on the fence on this one.

All in all, after all is said and done, I just hope that HG is doing ok, and that this game keeps going and the contents keep coming. I really want to see what happens next.

Well at this point it's all speculation. He said he stopped going on social platforms. Never said he stopped working on the game. Only one that knows that is Hopes. Either way he definitely should've done a better job of communicating what is going on with his supporters. No excuse for that!

Glad to see the game isn't dead and I don't have to edit my top 5.

Well he said he is pausing patreon now because he barely made any progress, which is more or less saying he did nothing in this time.

If he had made somewhat acceptable progress (considering he's already slow anyway) he would have simply stated it and there would be no outcry/need to pause patreon now.

Whatever i hope this continues but yeah ...

Not abandoned, realistically though one mid-size update per year is the best we can hope for. Better than nothing though.

appart from the fact that this years 'update' was the steam release and never added any gameplay. the end of season 1 was 2 updates ago already

I'm curious are there any hardcore scenes at all?

I downloaded this back in April 2024 it promptly put me to sleep and sat on my SSD until today. I checked the gallery and I don't see any HC but maybe I missed it.

Yes

Can we somehow request the Abandoned tag be removed or this something only the developer can do?

It can only be removed when there is a decent upload happens.

The mods will remove it when a new update is released.

I don't know why its Abandoned when he clearly said he is taking time off to get this in life back in order, that means it should be On Hold.

The tag rules on F95 has nothing to do with real life........

Because of Da rules.

Short if a game has the prefix abadonded then only an update can remove it.
Long arse explenation: What hornyy say and "on-hold" is only given on a request base. As hope didn't communicate at all for over 3 months, da rules happend and *peng* abadonded.

 

[Kitiuuu]

and why the hell did the game become abandoned? What happened to people that he asked for the game?

Read the posts just above yours. The game is only tagged that way because of the site's rules. The dev hasn't said anything about abandoning it.

don't think with the main girls yet. but if you are playing this for porn you probably won't have a good time. I love this game for the comedy and story but mostly comedy
