Good hypno/mind-fuckery stuff in general seems rare. One of the reasons I ended up doing this: now there will be at least one more hypno game!
And yes, I absolute cop to clunky gameplay. This will improve a bit with future chapters, but probably not hugely. I am not a smart when it comes to gameplay. My goal is just for it to be good ENOUGH to be fun, and not get in the way too much.
