Hypnotica Quest

finally got the time to play this last night and it was pretty fun :3

i like the atmosphere and the music is pretty nice,  but at least for me the hypnotism this time wasn't as effective as it was in mezma's revenge or dr. voldritch's experiment, but it still left me feeling relaxed so i'm happy! i'd say the main issue with it was just the visuals being a lot more subdued, specifically the spiral, so it was easier for someone like me to get distracted with other parts of the screen and dr. voldritch's big square nose which i love dearly (i chose to do the induction in the alien world, though i'm not sure if there would've been a different one if you chose not to do it there)

i also really like the voices given to each character when you talk to them, they're very silly, especially with the slight bitcrunch they have, and especially when you make one voice stack over itself if you interact with the character fast enough

the 3 biggest glitches i noticed were how when walking through a door (i only ever noticed this with doors facing north and south), if you walked into the door for a second and then interact with it, you would warp to either the top or the bottom of the collision on the next screen (starting from the origin or center of the map). then also when walking parallel to collision, if you begin walk diagonally into it, your movement gets canceled overall, whereas in other games, walking diagonally into collision would just cancel the vector moving perpendicular to the wall, and keeping the other vector unaffected. and finally, this being way more common in top down rpgs than the other two, is that when moving in the four cardinal directions, you move 1 unit n per frame, but moving diagonally doesn't move you the same distance of 1n, and instead moves you the square root of 2n per frame. this way of movement i do like because i like going fast, but the diagonal walking into collision glitch conflicts with that, so for me, it does make movement around the overworld sort of a pain but it wasn't that big of a deal

i do like this game still! and i'd love to see more of the top down rpg system in these as i think it can work great when mixed with the actual hypnotism :3

also right after the game i challenged myself to write a song while still under the effects of the hypnotism and it actually worked really well, i finished the song just under two hours later and it's one of my favorite songs i've written so far so thank you bloof

hi! I can't get past this point for some reason no matter what location I pick. not sure what I am going wrong

HOLY F*CK THE COMIC CHARACTERS ARE INGAME NOW?!

aw yeah another hypnotism experience is ready i'm so excited !! been waiting so long since mezma's revenge and i bet this game is yet another improvement!

I love this game and your webtoon! (I read the entire thing during my classes and would love more chapters!) great work on this! 👍

You should put some kinda indication that you need  to press the space bar to start,,,

This looks so cool tho!!! Can't wait to start playing

I'm trying to get the game to work, but so far, I'm stuck on the Start screen.
The start button is greyed out and won't let me click it. Same with Quit.
