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

This game is all in one.
suspense, romance, action and comedy.
a must play game.
nice and different story with beautiful girls.
liked the concept of missions where you don't have to go on mission to earn money.
buy weapons and stuff.

It is well written, I like the stories behind the characters (so far) and how the music matches each scene.

The girls are really cute and I love how they are not like flat or empty.

It gives you the feeling of making the best choices or you will end up with a shot in the head

Nice story and events, good leveling system with item shop and skillbooks for stats and this promotion thing is very important way to keep grinding for exp and better items cool plus weekly salary to have that money for better items, nice rendering and sounds are a big plus. Overall very nice VN game.

A top notch story, with characters that are very well written and are different, with their own unique personality. I also love the fact that it doesn't immediately jump to lewd scenes and actually makes you as a player work for the reward of getting close and personal with them.

The art is just amazing and the best thing is the characters unique personalities, like Luna (my new waifu :3). The game has lots to develop but i can already tell that it's going to be a great game.

Note: Rating this as a v.0.02, so no demerits for limited sexual content.

The story and renders have been covered by other reviews (they're great), so I wanted to focus on DeLuca's real triumph:

It is easily the most user friendly game I've played in recent months. It has quests, a quest log, active quest tracking (which shows up on the left column of the nav page), very easy navigation, and a big ass "Continue" button for advancing the story. Other games should give this one a long look for elements that would help their ease of use.

Great game which changed the concept of most adult games, the focus is on the story and gameplay elements and you can keep playing without advancing the main plot if you feel like it. The renders look great and the developer has a great passion for his project. If he keeps the game as good as it is now he will have a great future in this industry.

A very nice start indeed! The story is fresh and intriguing and the characters are interesting. One of the very few games where it didn't matter that erotic content was scarce. Looking forward to new updates!

A fresh, interesting concept in the world of Ren'Py Adult VNs, with intriguing plot and a cast of entertaining, diverse and unique characters. Not to mention the witty dialogue and rich character interactions. The little erotic content there has been has shown great promise.

Can't wait to see more of it.

Beautiful game, exciting characters, unique design, thats all you need to have a perfect game. I really like this game and i hope there will be much more develop in the future.
Its a bit different than other games because of the style, and the atmotphere.

The story line is a fresh new and constructive way of creating this type of game. This game has quality rendering as well. The developer has done an excellent job and i will be looking forward to the updates and continuance to the game.

Great game! Long playtime, nice story and good graphics. Also the grind isn't boring because you dont have to make too much. I hope new updates soon! I wish there was more games like this= long playtime, not boring story, good graphics.

The DeLuca Family comes with a premise of an extense game, providing hours and hours of an enticing gameplay, flowing through a very well-constructed plot and unique characters (Luna is the best!).
Even with its slow build-up, this game is capable to keep players who just want to get some key scenes, due to a separation between 'free roam' and 'story mode', despite the grinding to gather some skills and items.
The renders are probably one of the best around, as they suit perfectly with the text, transcribing the feelings from the characters, like in the prison and the tree scenes. The tension is there.
Here is my vote for the success of this dev and this fantastic game, from which I'm for now expecting great things ahead!

The first lewd game i am more interested in the history than the scenes, i loved the possibility to play how many days i like without advancing in main plot, i hope the developer continue with this great work.

A great story and interesting game design make this a really promising game. The character models seem unique, and the renders are well done. The character and story development is really nice, with interesting stories for most of the characters, as well as some crazy/funny moments (usually to do with Luna).

If it continues on the way it's started, this will be a really great game!

Quality in every aspect of the game so far. The art is great through out the game not just in a few key parts to use in screen shots. I have not run into a single bug. Also the story and characters are some of the most enjoyable and actually compelling I have seen in a while. The amount of content in this early of a version is also a good indicator of the standards of the creator, it does not feel like a cheap cash grab like a lot of the games on here now do.

finally an adult game with deep story
the story is enough for me to support
i have seen no animation but it's okay for now

cannot wait for the next release

the developer really know what he is doing

not just some shit story ....
and i hope the story still attractive as it's now

This is a great game in early development when this review is written but the rendering is good the story given at this point is good and unlike other games that are released this early it really does have 1-2 hour game time.

I downloaded this game on a whim, lacking alternatives, and having grown tired of "endless young man seduces all his relatives" creativity-bankrupt ripoffs. Within minutes I was riveted by both the story and the renders, and by the end of this first release I can honestly say its in my top 3 best first releases, and that Luna probably tops my list of favourite characters in adult games (and if the writing continues to be as good, could challenge some of my favourite characters from non-adult games as well).

The story so far has a very nice mix of mystery, craziness and heartfelt moments, the mechanics seems sound, and all the characters are interesting in their own ways. Add to that the renders of the 4 girls which are just fabulous, I predict great things from this.

5/5

I really like that you can freeroam without getting caught into main plot. Plus that it has side level system and such so seems like it has massive potentional as a great game.

The characters are unique and likable. The art looks pretty good and (least to me) doesnt seem like most characters are stock or anything you'd seen in other games here.

Pretty much at this point in time only real downside is there isn't enough of it finished yet. I want more lol but that'll come with time.

Also unless i missed some as of v0.01b there isn't much to do for "adult" content but I personally would recommend this game even if the dev never added adult content. Game seems quite solid.
