Hey!
It's been almost a year since I disappeared from here. Turns out I started working on a game around hypnosis/mind control themes and I'm happy to say that I have done decent progress.

▼Features of the demo▼

-Animated Live2d models for the main cast and side characters. Multiple outfits for each character

-Minigame 4v4 battle featuring animated pixel-art sprites

-Animated screen effects and hand-draw animations

-Weird shit

Game contains around 10-15 mins of gameplay, featuring a 3500 words lighthearted script and the early stage of the 4v4 battle-minigame. Game is a demo of a way bigger project that should be publish next few months. I been pretty quiet about it until I was able to show progress which is happening now.
Since I'm the developer and artist. Stuff gets done very cheaply but takes a little bit more.

Game is SFW, tho still +18 obviously :DDDD

It's always fun to see new people making more hypno-related games! Looks fun.

If i have something to say, it is that none of your links really explain what the game is "about". You've stated what the game has, and what it'll contain in potential future updates, but nothing about what the game's story/plot is. (Unless you have posted it somewhere and i was unable to find it.)

Even if it's a tiny paragraph, I feel like telling the game's story is pretty important in trying to get people to play it.

The demo is about a prank that went kinda wrong and got co-opted by the wrong person. Nothing too special and pretty bland. What it is important is the visuals and the tech :DDD
The actual game should be about a mass-controlling conspiracy that the protagonist has to deal with or just join it. Going kinda obtuse here since it's too early to go into details still.
For tags it should be maledom, malesub femdom femsub male_protagonist (female_protagonist?) and a variety of fetishes in their SFW version, like feet, tickling, bdsm, corruption, petplay, stuff related to mind control
Tho these more fetishes should be on the individual routes of the main cast. These individual routes are like personal ones, completely skippable and optional so I'm allowed to get away with more stuff, since they are in a writing-bubble
Hope this clears more doubts!

I really enjoyed this. Was a really fun and quick demo, would recommend after a few patches.

The combat minigame was pretty buggy, constantly freezing and making me restart.

The VN portion was great, but was pretty laggy, though this may be a problem with my computer and not the application, not sure. This was mainly during CG's or anything involving lights.

Definitely gonna play as more updates come out.

You should maybe consider posting this on the <<hypnopics-collective.net|Hypnopics Collective>> "MC Games zone" subforum as well.

It requires a (free) account, but it's a good way to get additional feedback on projects like this.

<<tfgames.site|TFGames Site>> is also another one which accepts mind-control related games, though as a form of "mental transformation".

Played the demo, and it was really good!

I defo enjoyed the induction parts a lot, and the "I'm a dork" trigger was funny as well! The battle part was also pretty nice (and nice dog pic for the hero lol)

The only complaints I can find is that ESC closes the game instead of pausing it, which caused me to closes it multiples times by accident, and that the logs don't auto scroll to the most recent dialogues so it's a bit of a pain to get to them :/
Also the fighting phase feel a tiny bit slow, especially bc of the damage animation being pretty long so it takes a while when getting hit by 4 enemies

Really looking forward to seeing more in the future!

Can I beta-test the Linux build?

I'll look into deactivating the ESC key.
Timings were all over the place since I rushed most of them :DDDD
More polished stuff for a later build



Sure!
I'll send you a pm with the download link before the day ends

Update 0.1.6 Featuring lots of bug fixes, rework of the minigame, Spanish and Russian translations and a new short dialogue route
