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

[Huitieme]

Thanks for the kind words, guys. Always a bit nerve-wracking to see the reactions of the more darker parts when they come once in a while.
The action scenes were also a bit of experimental. As I haven't done anything of that vein before.

Now, to answer the number one complain - LEWD. (Can a deluca update really be called a true Deluca update if there are no lewd complains, heh)

Normally I am very thick-headed regarding that matter and just do my best to console, hug and move them to other games as gentle as I can.
This time however I do understand, as 0.05 was supposed to be a 'breaking point' and even had a penetration joke in my dev. update post. (It was very funny) Thing is, I moved that and did Luna's backstory instead due to pacing. This means the main focused lewd got changed into a focused story. Do I regret? No, I like the pacing. But I do understand the need for lewd (especially the more intimate ones). That's why I decided to postpone for a week. Actually was supposed to be one more Luna lewd situation after the final scene involving them sleeping together and get a bit more physical. But a 20-hour animation that went bad and I was like- Nope. Add that in another date.

Lastly, Isabel focused update next time. She is the most lewd of the three plus the lewd that got moved. Next time is going to have so much lewd that the story people going to complain. Remember tho. Story-lewd-story-lewd.
Change it up.

Lewd doesn't matter as much to me as the overall quality of the game. The DeLuca Family is easily in my top 2 favourite games on this site, and adding more lewd would not change it (although I'm not against it *wink wink*). You've succeeded in making me care and love those girls, and the pace of your story is nothing short of perfect.

Cant wait. One of the best devs, one of the best games, you really outdo yourself everytime, and all I can say is that I am proud of supporting you, and following your game since it started!

This game is great


I died laughing while reading
the story its good ,
we share all feelings by reading and seeing that we are the main character we also pause questions about why we are attacking who is our mother actually ...

It's like reading an interactive novel with really great pictures

on the other hand it would be cool that there is more mission to do I feel like a bandit 3 em zone managed tavern brawl

How do you trigger 'My Name is Luna'.

That is a good question, I can't get it to trigger.

 

[6joker6]

thx for such a good game, you are definitly teasing us with story and lewd content

 

[UnoriginalUserName]

Damn, those feels. Extremely well done HopesGaming.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the MC "toughen up" a bit more after the story reveal from best girl. Dude would be legit furious and motivated. ...he might also want to start carrying around a few of those wet wipes from BBQ places in case Luna goes all Luna again.

Joey was an awesome addition as well. I can see it now, he and the MC are either going to become mortal enemies or BFFs.

Gotta agree with this.

As it stands right now the story is one of the best on the site. We know sex will happen sooner or later but we wouldn't have anywhere near the feelings we have for Luna if this update had just been them having sex without the story.

Luna would still be gorgeous with a sympathetic story after the cafe incident but now has much more depth and is quite possibly set to be one of the most popular girls in any VN.

Sex sells but nothing builds a character like story and right now the character building is some of the best i've seen.

Sex I can wait for, this is more than worth the read without it.

Seeing Luna's past and the little things she hears people say now would make an eventual happy ending with her so much sweeter and no amount of sex could have done that.

That is a good question, I can't get it to trigger.

If you're asking "how to start it", you need to finish the story event "I'll protect you", then ask Wilfried about Luna's words.
If you're asking "how can I complete it", don't forget to check your camera feed on your computer

I'm one of those who likes to see some lewd action, in the start of a game and dont like slow-pace games. But your story telling is so good, it completely takes my mind of it. So do your thing man, cause your doing it extremely good! by far one of the best games on this site!

 

[MikieB]

"My Name is Luna".. i'm speechless. -"I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying!" probably sums it up.

Insanely well written event, horrible horrible things happening, just an emotional overload!

"We all" what. I didn't make it passed the LOL I'm so edgey and crazy I mighta killed your brother, on introduction. If this is what passes for good writing, I'll pass. Hard. And I did. Since it went straight into the recycle bin.

 

[2real]

i got recording 5 never saw recording 4 now 5 has disappeared and nothing progresses is update over or did it glitch i dunno what to do in game now. anyway im a fan, great game. only comment would be a better hint system

Thank you talking to Wlfried worked.

Oh I dunno, I fell for her during that "gun and ice cream" moment.

Luna would still be gorgeous with a sympathetic story after the cafe incident but now has much more depth and is quite possibly set to be one of the most popular girls in any VN.

Agreed. Hell, she's already got at least one cameo that I know of.

Seeing Luna's past and the little things she hears people say now would make an eventual happy ending with her so much sweeter and no amount of sex could have done that.

Agreed again. Best girl needs her white picket fence ending. As much as I may like Gracie, Luna NEEDS to have a happy ending now. I'm a little concerned about what form it may take, which is why I specified the white picket fence thing. As in everything works out. Not a "I can die happy after my revenge!" thing!

While I can understand your point of view, I think you did yourself a disservice there and I'd recommend you give it another try. But to each their own.

Let me show you where the exit door is...
and don't come back
