Well, the induction part was fun (only significant weakness being that the "pain" sigil didn't do anything at all, which is probably for the better), but I don't understand the game itself (I think you're supposed to hit the purple triangles and avoid the red squares?), and the triggers didn't seem to do much of anything.  :/

The game is cool, the different settings allow for replayability and desired playtime.

Also, I don't know if it's intentional, but if you go in AI domme mode, you don't see the objects or the circle, but the spiral and the sigils work. (tested on Windows)

Thank you for your comment! For the record, that is intentional; the AI domme mode is about fully relinquishing control, so the game essentially "plays itself" while toying with your mind.

Okay, I thought that could be the case, but wasn't sure.

I also wanted to point out that Nyx Gaming replies quickly and wholeheartedly to their "customers" 😊.

I've been playing through your catalog of games, really enjoying them. Your inductions have been some of the best I've experienced, I  go into trance so easily with them... but unfortunately, the other effects never seem to work. The best I got was some confusion in Fraction8, and the pain trigger in this game doesn't work much at all :/ Still very fun to play though.

So, question for both the devs, and players. How long does it normally take you to get into a trance with this game? Is there some point where by then, you should have fallen into one?

actually one factor is how willing you are for what's happening and if you are ok with it like if this is what you want/are ok with, also depends on your suggestibility (aka how easily you are able to be hypnotized)

Is it possible to be immune to hypnosis? i went through the introduction but when i played i felt nothing..

We're sorry to hear that! In our experience, it's less of an immunity factor and more that different brains require different inductions. Our projects' hypnotic aspects thus far have focused primarily on blends of audio, visual, and kinesthetic inductions, but if those don't work well for you, then e.g. a confusion induction may be more your speed. We plan on expanding our induction repertoire in future projects, and hope that some of those experiences work better for your specific mind!

Honestly, i think it might be due to my aspergers. Kind of a shame really. the voices in your games are super beautiful. props to the voice actress(es)

As we said, different minds require different inductions. We recommended looking into confusion inductions because they tend to work well on people on whom other inductions may not work, including neurodivergent people who aren't affected by other induction types.

You have to be willing to be hypnotized and believe you can  be. Even then it's not a terribly well researched subject.

Has there been an update that's made the downloadable app run on macOS Big Sur 11.2.3?  All I've been getting is a notification that:

You do not have permission to open the application "Psychic Damage Mac.app".

This is both before and after fiddling with permissions, as an administrator account.

kinda off-topic, but how are things going with the  priority realignment game?
i love status effects...

Thank you for your interest! Unfortunately, Priority Realignment has been delayed to mid-April. We apologize for the inconvenience!

for those interested here an update: free demo is said to be released on April 30th.

i've never felt like this watching a hypno before, really cool even though pain ain't my thing.

wondering, what kind of fetishes are you planning on doing in the future?

We're glad to hear you enjoyed! While we can't reveal too much yet, our recently announced upcoming project will combine several fun things together~

This was really strange... I actually felt it all, even if just a little, my body felt all tingly in different ways based on the sigils. I just finished playing for the first time and I can still feel the warmth. Good job!

Aaaaaah! This was great!

I can't get the web version to load - it just stays at an empty progress bar.

We're sorry to hear that! This is a known issue that we've been working on a fix for. In the meantime, you should be able to get around it by playing the game in a different web browser.
