#interactwithme

I wanna cover his face in kisses, would he let me?

Since this is a place of truth...

I shall be truthful.

No.

Or... well, I suppose one may go to great lengths when driven by a strong enough goal...

MYRDDIN FROM INTERACT WITH ME!!!! I am in awe, hehe. Thank you again, @sillydrawsstuff !!! Doesn't he just look so disarming, charming and sweet?

For those interested -

Interact With Me is an interactive fiction made by @tomyselfworks !!

(I highly recommend browsing the itch page, as the best way to immerse yourself in this game is through your own eyes :))

I'll be blunt, I have no idea how exactly to use Tumblr right now, so please bear with the randomness!

I don't want this to simply become another page for current development updates, since that is already what the devlogs on itch.io are for.

Instead, I might occasionally post about behind-the-scenes topics that are not usually addressed. For example, how IWM started, why I made it, what inspired it, why certain things are the way they are, and so on.

And of course, if there is anything you are curious about, please feel free to ask!

Today, I will simply mention a little fun fact that probably very few people know.

In the image, you can see the prototype for Interact With Me!

It was originally a jam entry for...

I forgot. Wait, let me check...

Ah, it was for Scream Jam 2025.

That is why the official published date on the store page is Oct 17, 2025, rather than Feb 13, 2026, which is when Version 0.1 was released.

Personally, I consider the latter to be the official release date, since the prototype and the current version are essentially completely different games.

Frankly, the prototype was very bare bones and didn't achieve anything particularly impressive, but you can already see the clear direction of what would eventually become the current version.

For example, you can compare what the title screen looked like back then with what it looks like now:

I'm... I'm not the only one who thinks this is quite a leap... right?

Well, anyway...

That is... about it, yeah.

...

Thank you for your time!

Whenever I fully start focusing on development, I first figure out how I want the chapter to begin and how I want it to end. Having that line from A to Z gives me an easier way to build the path in between.

The main difficulty with Chapter IV will be, well… how to continue, haha.

More precisely, how to continue after everything that happened in the latest ending.

We cannot simply crack a joke and act like nothing happened, right?

...

Or I suppose… maybe we could…

Anyway, those following the main page probably know that I like to publish a little "Road to" devlog, where I mention the current state of development and the direction I am taking.

That tradition will continue, and the devlog is currently planned to be published toward the end of July.

Another small tradition so far is that every major update has been released with around two months in between.

I would like to uphold that for Version 0.4 as well. Because of that, I hope to finish it by the later half of August.

Meanwhile, for those wondering what Myrddin is doing:

He’s just hanging around.

...

I don't know how to called it but it seems like a monster inside my head.

They keep hissing, murmering and screeming inside my head.

Im tired.

I just want to cry.
