VN Ren'Py Mind Control [v0.225] [specialmind]

[romo-ice]

Yesterday i tried the game for the first time, and i really loved. The game has a good story, good scenes, and possibility to build a harem.

Today, i tried to change some options that i made yesterday, and for example, yesterday the MC lost his virginity with Rosie, today he lost with Mia.

I only have some ideas for the game:

Possibillity to have a relationship with Rosie`s mother, and with Anna.
Investigate the mistery behind the school Erotic Cult, envolving Vitoria, father/Rosie`s step-father/Emilie/Anna and the apartment.
More actions per day with the mind control power, and have the player a way to control it, for example, when the days pass Richard became stronger in mund control, instead in having 1 possibility to use the power, will have 2, after some days 3 and so on, and the "player" control it, for example:

On the Seventh day, Richard has 2 times to use mind control, the game will have those opportunities to use the power

Make the mother obey every order Richard say, if he say strip, she will strip the clothes.
Make Vitoria more submiss.
After school, in the Rosie house 2 possibilities
Make the Rosie mother, flirt with Richard, to make Rosie with jealous.
Making Rosie to let you have anal sex or eat cum.
Make Mia to have erotic dreams/daydream with Richard

Those are some examples for the 7th day.


And i want to wish to the DEV best luck with the game. I hope he give us monthly updates

Also hoping Anna is added as an LI, with a dominant MC and given how submissive she is, it'd be a nice combo. I'm also hoping if MC is dominant, you get a chance to turn the tables on the teacher.

I can't figure out the recharge rate of MC's power but it does seem like it's decreasing. It'd be nice if we got a bit more insight into how MC's power is getting stronger.

Lastly, MC has commented multiple times on how he needs to be smarter about the commands he gives, so I'm hoping that happens soon. E.g., when he enters the parents room the command he gives to Kate only lets him watch and he comments as such, if the next time he uses his power on her he does something similar it's going to be as if he hasn't learned anything. It's fine if he gives a bad command in a panic like with Elise, but he has to have learned something by now. I absolutely hate idiot MC's who don't learn anything as time goes on. E.g., how about the next time he uses his power he actually times about how long it takes for him to recharge?

Amazing game, one of the best.
Actually, I never really read any game text, just fastfoward it all, but not this one.
Doesnt mean that the text is good or anything, it was all just more interessing than normally and kept my attention, congrats.
This dev is should change its nick from specialmind to sickmind, lol.

mindcontroldev hey man... even though I see many negative comments in here I enjoyed the game... but I have to ask something as it's a very "me" thing... my question is will there be impregnation/pregnancy in the game in future(not talking about random pregnancy, talking about MC impregnating them)? Especially with the mom and sister?

mindcontroldev Great game. I'm even tempted to support you if the next 1/2 updates have the same quality. My only concern is the number of choices and subsequent paths. We have seen it over and over in the past. It doomed more than a game.

I love the idea to able to influence the game a lot but:
too many paths = huge amount of renders for a very small update from the point of view of the final user (that it is usually interested in 1-2 paths max).

it is something you should keep in mind.

Good luck with your project!

I'll raise these concerns as well with regard to branching/pathing. The more little, stacked, choices, the harder it will be to keep track of these decisions. I've seen two major categories of choices, 'narrative forks' or 'cosmetic/flavor' (not official terms, just what I call them).

The former are choices that change the direction of the game, a common one is a Good Path vs an Evil Path. With these, it's basically making a separate game every time these pop up, but, since each path is more self-contained, you can work on progressing a specific branch. To an extent these can be easier to manage. Some games also just keep each fork short and make a bunch of them (breadth vs depth).

The latter are things that might change some aesthetic of the game or some text, but are not a hard fork of the narrative. You generally want to minimize 'how much' or 'how long' each of these affect the story or eventually convert these to a fork. E.g., a choice will affect a bunch of scenes for the next chapter, but then the choices converge ('how long'). Or, it's a change for the entire game, but it just adds some occasional flavor text ('how much'). Further, stacking these choices can be very problematic as they can create numerous story pathways if the 'how much' and 'how long' for each choice are not accounted for. This category is where people run into problems -- devs will add a lot of these choices which have a sizable impact ('how much') on the story and last for a long time ('how long'), leading to a situation where the dev has to interweave many pathways inside the story.

Just some food for thought.

Lol you talk like mind control is a real thing The author can write what he wants and set his own rules.


Possibly, the script has some logic coding issues

mindcontroldev
A logic issue, when you go home with Rosie after the party but you're ok with Mia being with Emilie

I like the game till now, didn't finished the content yet. Characters are kinda unique looking, not the usual beauty standards.

English translation could need some improvements but it's mostly ok. Could add an option to hide the UI at the top of the screen if we don't want to see the stats all the time. Characters are often not looking at each other or at the camera, could work on that.

Keep up the good work

Thanks for spotting that! I've updated the thread links with a 0.21b version that fixes it. I also took the opportunity to add a button to hide the UI as you suggested

Wow. Update interval changed for the better. I was prepared to wait till 2026, but I'm not complaining! Keep it up!

Well Mind control isn't real, least not I know, but brainwash techniques are, even Hypnosys are possible to alter peoples minds. Mind control is just a magic spell used in many pen and paper games and rpg games, but never been real at least never seen in real yet. I'm just mentioning that some people minds are weaker and easy manipulated while others aren't so easy to manipulate, but that has more to do with psychology.

 

[Vynrael]

yeah the tags are incorrect there is 0 netorare in so far from what i tried

Wanted ro redo my comment so deleted last to do this wirh more info, cause last comment sounded too critical to the dev. The dev is actually doing a great job.

Overall a great game. Choices go many different ways. I love this has a femdom route and love how Emile takes control. Teacher is also great. Excited to see where femdom goes next.

Hopefully we can pursue Mom in the future even if we are with Rosie since she is blocked off from you if you have rosie with you. Maybe we can even have Emile take control of her too and then she can own the whole family and dom us all.

I would like to see more with Elise in future, cause she gets kind of sidelined is what it feels like a bit, so hopefully more content and focus on her.

One thing I don't like it MC's hair so I hope he goes gets a haircut to spruce him up, but will understand if dev doesn't want and will respect his decision, just my personal hope it happens.

This game is a welcome surprise and really good, am really excited to explore other paths and see where it goes in the future. Keep up the great work dev.

[LIONREX]

Amazing! game! i hope too see more!

 

[Gatzvalich]

Somehow the game ends the same from last patch. Whtas wrong?

Looking at the changelong, thats normal. The update added a few things to the party, and the gives you the chance to interact with the mother on the current last day. It doesn't continue the storyline yet.,

I want this complete game on my table today, I really enjoyed it, it's been a while since I played one of this quality

brainwashing is a real thing, it's how moonies are made. it also requires constant reinforcement or else they revert back to their original self. so it's not something that is permanent.

anyways i had a gripe, i d/led .21 and it ends at the exact same spot as the previous version, there is nothing new, why does it claim new scenes yet still goes exactly the same way???

The answer you seek is in the changelog in the OP.

Mind control, true hypnosis, putting someone in a trance, or messing with someone's state of mind? That stuff just isn't possible. The only real form of brainwashing is manipulation, lies, misinformation, and indoctrination from whether a young age or a weaker mind. Well it might be possible to alter someone's state of mind by using technology but I think that's still realm of science fiction at the moment. If we're talking fiction, though, the dev can do whatever they want. They can make their own rules for mind control and not worry about limits—they should just go all out and let their creativity flow. Honestly, I can't stand when devs add huge consequences in games. I like mind control options with no restrictions—that's where the fun is! I love how this game is set up, and I think it's perfect just the way it is. I also love games where there's blackmail with no major consequences. I'm all about the main characters getting away with almost anything. Lol. Not every game has to be super realistic, like real life.
