Hello, my name is WaifusAndSyrup! I'm currently making a real hypnosis themed, yuri visual novel!

Content:
You play as Mary Miller, a woman in her final year in high school, who lost the motivation to do anything after losing her parents in a car accident at an early age. One day, she receives a video from an old friend, one involving hypnosis. After experiencing it first hand, Mary wonders if she can use hypnosis to make other women obey her every command, and suddenly she finds the motivation to do something.
(A-18. Contains sexual imagery and adult situations involving adults.)

(Current update has finished Rachel's 2nd route and coloured words have returned for when characters are speaking. Carol's events and routes will be next to be released.)

Reminder: The options menu works with a small quirk; you can only drag the settings left and right upon entering the menu by clicking near the middle of the bar. The clickable spot always resets to that spot whenever you enter the menu. And if you're running this on a mac, this note's for you:
"...you can make a fully working mac version of a game in VNM only if you build on mac. This is still a problem that unsolved and currently still a lot people talk about it. In theory what you build now for mac is a web version. So if you open the index file in a browser the game should run..."

If you find any bugs or problems with the game, be sure to send me a message and I'll look into getting it fixed as fast as I can! Thank you~

Community:
All versions of the game is available to the public after 2 weeks of delay on www.subscribestar.com/waifusandsyrup

I also have a discord where you can get news regarding my progress on the game, or simply meet new friends! Here; discord.gg/Tnq3qPN

Thanks for reading I hope you have a wonderful day~

Well now i hope you get more patrons and get more progress done on your game.

It be nice touch.

Now have download links hosted on Mega due to popular demand. I've also made a 32Bit and 64Bit version respectively.

If you're going to use the .zip format, you should enable compression, it'll shave about 100MB off the download size.

Files are now compressed! Thank you so much for the advice~

The interface is a bit annoying. I don't enjoy having it default to fullscreen, but that's minor. The main problem I have is the inability to hide the text box. If you've got a menu button on the box, right click should hide the box. The story and writing is good, but that text box is a nuisance. On another note, is the teacher supposed to be married? It didn't come up, but I was curious because of the Mrs.

Hiding the text box is defiantly something I'm looking into for when the next version releases. As for "Mrs." Marsh's relationship status, she is single. I am embarrassed to say that I had completely overlooked this problem. >_< It will be fixed.

Another minor annoyance is that pressing the escape key instantly exits the game. If possible, escape should bring up the menu, just like pressing right-click does.

I don't have any good pointers or advice to offer, but I wanted to say that I am really looking forward to more! I love the scenario, I love the art and I love the writing!

Keep on with it, what you're doing is awesome, Syrup, and thank you for sharing it!

The second demo is publicly out! The download links are updated and I'm super excited!

The message box can now be hidden by pressing the spacebar (Requires to be pressed twice for the first instance) and other issues with the game have been fixed!

Thanks for waiting and I hope you enjoy~

Wonderful! I'm so happy to see you progressing steadily, the concept is super neat and the writing and art on the first one hit just the perfect notes for me. Looking forward to this new demo and thank you for your work!

I just finished the second demo, and I really enjoyed it!

If you don't mind, I do have some questions. (and I'm sorry if these questions are answered somewhere else. I couldn't find a FAQ on your patreon, so..)

1) How long do you think the final game will end up being?

2) I have very little experience with some visual novels (Danganronpa, Tsukihime, Katawa Shoujo, etc.) Will this VN be a linear experience, with few chances for player input (like Danganronpa) or will there be points where there will be choices and branching paths (like most dating sim VNs)?

3) In the options menu, there is a volume control for voices, Will the game be partially voiced, fully voiced?

I might have more questions later on, but I don't want to overwhelm you with too many questions.

1) I don't know how long the game will end up being, but I currently have 4 planned routes with 7 possible endings all depending on the choices you make. I'd like it to not be short or too long, so I'm hoping for somewhere in the middle, which for me is a game that can't be finished in one sitting, but won't take more than a week to beat.

2)- Wait, I kinda answered this in the first one. There will be a choice system implemented eventually. Right now there is no "bad ends" planned, but that may change.

3) I'd love to have voices in the game! When I feel like I can safely invest in voice actors without losing the money I need for other resources, I'll probably look into hiring a few. So the answer is; Ideally, yes.

As for the mention of the FAQ, I actually have a 24/7 AMA text channel on my discord! If you ever have anymore questions, you should go check it out!

I'm glad you enjoyed the demo!

New Mac links added! There have been multiple reports of the game not starting up for Mac users, but this version fixes that issue.

The third and final demo has been released! Thank you all for your continued patience!
