VN Ren'Py Valenza Family [Intro + Prologue] [Arcane Ink Productions]

[GustavoGanz]

The game is really fun, even though it's only a first release ... I'm eagerly awaiting the next update. And I hope that it continues to be developed and is not just a brief flare-up.

So, thats MAFIA 5?
Will there be car chases?

 

[Aristos]

Mafia? Sign me in.

The premise of the game sounds good enough!
I hope this one won't have sandbox or 15-month development cycles.

... Thx 4 the mafia ...

seems interesting but unfortunatly seems things will be unavoidable

Screenshot from the game:
Hmm...first "scheme" our wannabe Don protag suggests to his first henchwoman:

Once you make fun of it...you can't do it yourself now Dev, y'hear

Note on the game: A bit wordy on the exposition dialogues but otherwise enjoyed the first release well enough. Good Job.

Harem Incest now this sounds like a fun time.

Hmmm... Well, for starters, the overview says, "In Valenza Family, you step into the shoes of Michael Valenza, a cunning and often ruthless made man...". If the protagonist's last name is Valenza, then he would be a family member, not a made man. If the protagonist is a made man, then his last name would be anything except Valenza. Just thought the author might like to know.

You really don't know how it works

From discord: If a Don of an Italian Mafia family promotes his son or daughter without them properly earning their place, several key issues and potential consequences could arise within the organization. Mafia families operate on a system of earned respect and loyalty. Promoting someone without them proving their worth can lead to resentment among soldiers and capos who have worked their way up. It may be seen as a violation of the code of meritocracy that ensures survival and loyalty within the organization.

What the fuck are you even talking about. What you said may well be so... It also has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. Don't bother to reply. I won't see it. I don't converse with people who start their reply with, "You really don't know". Just as a side note, since when is a quote from discord considered an authoritative source for anything? Fuck, gimme a break...

Sounds pretty Kinetic, even the sex scenes with characters you might not like aren't avoidable just skippable.

All the games this dev made are kinetic so nothing surprising here, curious to see if this one will be abandonned or not because so far it's at least his 5th game , two are abandonned , one completed (but it was a short one) and another is still in development.

I was going to post this exact thing but you obviously beat me to it.

What other games have they made? I can't find a single one under this name on any site. They all only show this one. I'd hate to fall for a scammer.

I clicked on the Discord invite for this game and to my surprise I was already on the developer server, I was very confused for a moment.

It turns out this is the same dev who is currently making Elleria under a new name. I have no idea why he is using a new name since i am not active on his server for a long time after he abandoned the game i liked.

Knowing all this i am very skeptical of this game, dev start a new project and abandon the old ones, it already happened 2 times with is a bummer because i liked the start of this one.

Nice start, I'm fine with not having much choices, it's "intro + prologue"so really just the beginning, there are not really many choices that could have been made so far anyway.

Also, the tags are interesting. The hacker lady is fine, the sister seems either a bit obsessed or very loyal with/to her brother and the cars lady is fire. MC seems ok by my standards, hope we'll be able to paragon or renegade him, as well as pragmatic or something.

Interesting. Hope this will continue and that we won't have ridiculous gaps between updates for each game.
