lol

1) Change in opening act (which includes introduction of Dominico and redone breakfast renders)
2) Two Main Events
- What is Truly Weak is Truly Strong
- Unofficial Boss

3) 5 D-Contracts
- Nimbles Fingers
- The Snooping Bonans
- The Delivery Boy
- The Bonanzo Meeting
- The Painter

Given that Hopes works in a pattern of alternating between Main Story/Main Events or Free-roam back and forth, as well as the core gameplay having gotten an entire overhaul, I'd think it was a pretty good amount of content overall (or at the very least decent amount).

And Hopes already said several months before the update that v0.07 content will be all about Eiza's sister rescue mission plus introduction of the contracts gameplay.
All he did was just delivering what he said will deliver (in this dev posts) in terms of content (it's not like he said "X amount of content will be coming" but the actually content in the update turned out to be less than what was said lol)

did i say was bad? i was simple commenting that after all this months finishing game i have end up in same place like before
for me that is disappointing

Ello Delucas!

Hope everything had a good month.
This month was a bit of ups and downs but got some nice work in.
There has been made some more Gracie events. Going to see the overall picture once I finish that part and see how it all will be. So far, it's just work work. But no hassles and everything looking good.
I've just hired a composer to make a soundtrack for the game. If I like the music he makes I will start using him for all the future music. I do not want to be in a situiation where people be like 'hey, I've heard this music from somewhere else.'
The music composed will be 100% deluca and only deluca!

Sunday I am planning a Q&A at the discord for patrons and discord Deluca role members (this role is either for tier 1+ or long time discord members)
So do come in and ask away!
It will be at 15:00 GMT / 3 pm GMT

Hey Delucas

We're getting closer!
Won't be adding much regarding the contracts on this round. May add some after release when working towards a steam release.
Also, focus will be season based. What I mean is, there won't be work on story as I like how the end of the Fabio arc is the end of a season 1.
Isabel had a nice conclusion on her first part. Same with Luna. (And the added event with Luna on this will be a nice touch to it)
Gracie is lacking and that is what this update is for. We need Cordia to accept Gracie into the Family business!
Lastly, the girls may have a change of clothes and new poses in their room as to show new transition to a new season.
Do note that calling it seasons have no effect on your guys way of playing. Just a better way to integrate planned stuff and change stuff up.

Two previews this time around.

Hey DeLucas

Just wanted to share a quick preview and progress talk.
Luna's event is 94% done. Last parts will be finished after I get back to it at the end of the update. It contains a Luna animation and story talk.
Working on Gracie's part. Had a bit of trouble of starting Gracie's questline at first.
The Gracie event ideas I have had planned for her since the start was something I looked forward to. But I feel that event will happen too quick if I do it now and there needs to be a bit of 'build up' events. Especially when considering that it is a heavy cordia x gracie turning point.
To be clear, it is story wise I am talking about when saying 'too quick' and not lewd.
Lewd part is progressing well.

But wrote a bit here and there. Thoughts up some stuff and got some good stuff planned.
Joey may appear during Gracie's questline. For those that do not remember who Joey is - he is a elite soldato of the Family.

Hope you guys had a great weekend !

Sorry my bad. I didn't intend to mislead or put out bogus poop. I am soooo ashamed, I don't deserve an update.

Well you've made a mistake, but don't feel too ashamed cause it's not like you're the only person who made an incorrect assumption whether it's on this game or other games on this site (it's not like it happens often, but I do see some people do it sometimes).
As long as you acknowledge it and it's not intentional, it's all good.

Wasn't the game aboned months ago anyway? If I remember correctly, somebody volunteered to make a fan version and was only 4 renders away from publishing it ...

If I remember it correctly, it would have multiple the amount of content that Deluca have and he only needed one month to do.
Most likely Wilfred caught the dev red handend while he was jerking and looking at some lend photos of to Luna, Gracy, Isabelle, Cordia and one of Wilfreds wine bottles - the last one was too much - and now he is talking with the fish.

You know, it's always a pain and annoyance that in this site that the Dev posts are not put in a separate thread (like for e.g. DeLuca Dev posts thread) and everyone has to find them through the search function (as well as checking through Patreon's date for Dev posts and going through pages here to look for it).

So to save people some trouble, here's a quick way to get access to recent, and majority of past DeLuca dev posts on this thread:

1) Go to the following link:

https://f95zone.to/search/128961493/

2) Find all posts with title "The DeLuca Family." Those are all the dev posts.


With DeLuca, there is consistency in which a lot (if not almost all) of Dev posts get copied and shared by the user "johnelros" (though there may be exceptions every now and then that it's done by someone else), so it is easier.

Until the site changes and the day comes where all dev posts get archived and is posted on a separate Dev post thread, I hope this makes it easier for people to find the Dev posts for this game.


p.s. this works for DeLuca but don't know how it is for other games, since I don't know who generally copies and shares the Patreon dev posts for them.

Lewd photos of Luna, Gracie, Isabel, Cordia weren't enough, and only his wine bottle pushed him over the edge?
Me "accidently" dropping Wilfred's wine bottle on the floor, shattering it.

It was nice to have known you my friend.

What Wilfred doesn't know is, by the time he catches me, I've already had several good, sweaty funsie time (lasting extensive periods) with Luna, Gracie, Isabel, Cordia and many more (whether it's from the Family or others).
So in the end, I'll be the one with the last laugh, muhahahaha

Instead of "Sir," Wilfred now refers to you as "Old Chum."

I don't know if it is just me but this felt like an attack on people who have opinion on what the game developers do lol

In the search box, there's a field "By :" and so could search for HopesGaming post.
