• New Dimensions - 3 August 2026

  Linux FirstHypno is now being developed as Linux-first. The entire stack has been moved to a Cachy OS workstation, the Holo Deck used for Hypno Tournaments is running on a slim Cachy OS build, while the entire game has been optimized for Steam Deck running Steam OS since the very beginning.The reasons for this decision are equally of ethical and practical nature. We cannot in good conscience continue to rely on proprietary operating systems that are increasingly intrusive and bloated with features that are often being forced upon the user without any prior consent, while implementing aggressive data harvesting algorithms and unreliable codebase generated by LLMs that often introduce system-wide vulnerabilities and instabilities.Holo DeckHypno originally started as an audio-visual live performance tool - a crossover between DJing and VJing intended for big stages of electronic music part…

• Demo v0.7 - 13 October 2025

  The last time we had a public demo up was for version 0.2, but we've been running multiple closed playtests for every major release during this time and based on often overwhelming feedback of our playtesters, we've implemented a great deal of features and quality of life improvements that eventually resulted in a format we believe is now suitable for public eye.The LadderThe bread and butter of this demo is the ladder - a collection of 20 upgrades that unlock special perks and game content. Each upgrade has its own condition that needs to be met in order to unlock the perk and move to the next level.Qualifying RoundFor experienced players, there's the qualifying round. The first game of the session, that can serve as a shortcut to higher levels, so you don't have to go step by step every time you launch the game, as the progress doesn't carry over between sessions.The AvatarThe ultimat…

• v0.7 Preview - 1 June 2025

  V0.7 Preview is technically a v0.65, but since some of the systems intended for v0.7 were already in a functional, or at least a preview state, we decided to throw them in the mix as a sneak peek. Major Gaming Upgrades Players can now manually drop charges with a new dedicated button (left trigger or left Alt) Failed drop resets the speed straight to 0, as opposed to going one speed lower in the previous versions There is a whole new skillcheck phase that unlocks after a successful drop, while holding the trigger button After passing required amount of skillchecks (speed dependent), players will get to enter the Walker cockpit preview. Walking mechanics is planned for the next version. Classes are now even more specialized -- Hunter automatically drops charges in small intervals and can only progress with exactly one charged cube -- Empress & Mystic don't automatically drop charges, pla…

• Hypno v0.6 - 25 March 2025

  Not much of the visual aspects of the game remained from the last version, which is why we needed to completely refresh the Steam Page too, but let's take it one update at a time. Three Playable Classes Hunter, Empress and Mystic. They exist on another layer - or dimension, from the main avatar, which needs to be charged first, in order to open the portal to access them. Classes have their distinct play style that defines how players can navigate through the game world. The moves of each class are rooted in DJing principles so each playstyle can be thought of as a different DJing style that will result in a different musical experience. Apart from that, classes also respond differently to the sequencer beats, which also makes playing classes a distinct visual experience. Visual Sequencer The game now features a visual representation of every track in a form of a dedicated sequencer line…

• Hypno v0.5 - 28 January 2025

  With the introduction of animated, particle based avatar in the previous version came also the desire to make it upgradable - by the way players mix and combine their tracks. The first sneak peek is available in the latest media refresh that features four types of armor. The idea though, is to make the armor fully modular so the process of upgrading the avatar becomes as creative as possible. Another major upgrade relates to the grid, which has been further reduced to simple dots, that aesthetically match the particle systems used elsewhere, but also bring several technical perks along with it. The first one is further reduced hardware requirements. Hypno is already running at stable 60 fps on the OG Steam Deck, further optimizations will thus make it playable on wider range of mobile devices, including smart phones. The second perk is that the grid can now be fully animated. First test…

• Hypno Demo v0.2 - 15 October 2024

  Hypno Sets Preview Hypno stages are based on audio-visual sets. Each set is composed of 4x4x4 musical loops that can be combined in any way, because they share the same musical key. Each set has 7 unique backgrounds that can be combined in independent quadrants. This version features a preview of all 10 sets from the full version that can be accessed through Play > Free Dive menu option. Simple Control Scheme Newly introduced is the simple control scheme that uses keys and buttons to perform basic tasks as opposed to analog stick gestures that have been moved to Advanced Control Scheme that can be switched to in the main menu. Hypno Speakers The four cubes, representing the four musical layers of a track has now received a responsive outline that mimics the behavior of a speaker producing sound through acoustic pressure. This addresses an issue reported by players that the cubes were no…

• Hypno Demo v0.1.2.2 & Leaderboards Reset - 23 August 2024

  We've just released Hypno Demo v0.1.2.2 with minor adjustments to the visual aspects of the main gameplay loop, as per early feedback. The main cubes start with a brighter and more solid outlines but gradually fallback to the original minimalist state over the first 30 seconds of the game, and stay that way for the final 30 seconds. This should make the game more accessible for the newcomers and still retain some challenge with its late-stage visual style. The second visual update is concerning the cues meant for collecting and charging the cubes. Their outlines were also made thicker and more recognizable. To make the game fully accessible, there's now a full in-depth guide of "How to play Hypno" And finally, the leaderboards just reset so the Top 10 is now fair game for everyone!
