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

[ILCjr]

I find this game unique in that the grind isn't as frustratingly boring as many other VN's that use the grind. The leveling, relationships, and the story advancement are connected to the advancement of the characters but use different systems in the game. I have played this three times now since it began, and I have to say that it is one of my top games.

Please update soon bro.....

 

[FR12Gamer]

Will be updated as soon as possible...Patience is a good thing, so be patient ...

But, patience is not a strong priority in this community...

 

[FR12Gamer]

And still wait untill the developer is done with updating it. And we see it here.

Is there anyone know the console commands for money?

O yeah, is there any different if we buy camera rec with sound rec for future story? Because some story we need to check the recording. Because in walkthrough, it looks like it has "Morality" status, so I choose to buy sound rec. Is there any new CG for that?

^ Shift + O, Esc, click -> "Boss's Entrance", click -> Wilfred, click -> work

 

[Bubulae]

Wow, there are different content when using camera or audio only. Need to replay. xD

by the way, are we close to learning the reason behind MC's importance to the family? We got close to a parent stuff but the actual thing hasn't explained to MC yet

Nop,they throw some hints from time to time the characters but nothing solid yet,probably mid-game (future updates) the revelation will come to us or we get fake info from our investigation and them late-game the true appears before us.

well, the longer the suspense, the bigger the anticipation so I am expecting a good twist

Honestly waiting just for the dialogue and interactions, I don't even care about the lewd or sex scenes, I just wanna keep talking reading luna's dialogue lol

Even though this is a good game, the waiting for an update is just too long for just a short progress with the girls.

It's not just about the girls tho. This is a great story too, it's not one of those games where you ctrl through all the text and fuck them on the first day so his patrons probably like that for a change.

Yep. Although chasing the girls individually is fun too, it's the main story that I find most interesting.

There's some truth behind that. I hope that HopesGaming can find a way to improve his workflow so that updates come more frequently. This game really deserves some more patrons, but with an update every 4 months or so it's not gonna happen even if he's the Ernest Hemmingway of porn games. Still hope that we see the update in August

 

[N7Shepard]

I don't really think that the long wait is that bad as long as the update is worth it. DrPinkCake for instance has over 2000 Patrons and takes several months per update as well. The determining factor I think will be how big of an update we get after the 4 months. If we get an update that takes a good amount of time to see all the content and has good story progression then the wait will be well worth it. I really enjoy HopesGaming's work and hope that when this latest update comes out that it earns him many more Patrons.

The slow update has been due to real-life issues. (which has been handled now)
Life is life and sometimes there are setbacks.
After the update, it's back to a normal release schedule.

 

[Sharinel]

Jokes aside.
The reason for the delay has been due to health issues.
The release will be very soon and then back to the normal release routine.

I've been pretty active in all the platforms to make sure all the playerbase know of this and the progress of the game.
Discord, Patreon and here.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but you can only use the 'normal release schedule' promise so many times before it becomes meaningless. Especially as 2 out of your 4 updates (if my maths is correct) since base game was released have been delayed. What constitutes a normal release schedule?

The normal schedule is the one from patreon page faq. 2 months is the goal and may go a bit more depending on how the content is and how I feel about it.
And indeed, it's normal for people to get restless after delays. Which is why I don't comment too much about it and rather want to update and get back on it.
