Hey!

I’m always all ears (and excited) for suggestions.

I’m very open to adding cool, immersive ideas, as long as I’m actually capable of implementing them. That said, I can be pretty cutthroat if something clashes with the story I have planned...

I’ll go through each point:

The whole atmosphere of the environment is isolation. Myrddin is trapped there (or perhaps contained).  I’m not sure if you followed this dialogue path since it’s optional, so I hope I’m not accidentally spoiling it: 

 “An invisible something presses buttons, chooses words, answers me back…”

“If someone watched me right now, they’d probably think I’m talking to a wall."

So in-lore, Myrddin is essentially just talking to the wall. Because of that, actually breaking that “wall view” is something I’d rather keep for later, and make it feel more intentional, possibly closer to the end.

###

This idea has actually floated around my mind since the prototype, but I think it got sidelined because it wasn’t a priority. I also don’t think I’d let it be chosen in a menu before the game starts. If anything, it would be something Myr asks about naturally during dialogue.

###

…Is it funny that I didn’t even think about a cloud joke? That’s honestly absurd, considering everything...

###

This is a planned feature! Though you might want to be careful, annoying him too much could mean losing control over that gimmick. (Ruffling his perfectly placed hair is basically a crime.)

###

From what I gathered, you’re playing on a mobile device. I’m not sure how different the experience is compared to browser or executable versions, but the cursor is already imitating a hand.

On that note, do you think it would be easier or more enjoyable if I made an APK (a proper mobile app version)? I’d have to look into how it works and whether it’s feasible with some of the code I’m using, but if it improves the experience, I’d try.

###

Items are definitely something I want to include,!  Potentially even in the next bigger update.

###

If you ask it like that… no, he can’t eat. (At least not in his faceless version.) But that does sound like a perfect setup for a comedic scene and a very ironic remark!

###

Thanks for giving me so much to think about, and thank you for taking the time to share all of this!

Yes! I actually got that dialogue. And, I had no idea it was optional. I mostly suggested it, because I felt bad for Myrddin after that dialogue, seeing as he was paranoid that he was talking to himself. But, it would be cool if it happened close to the end of the game.

It would be nice if Myrddin is the one asking about my appearance. If you add that conversation, I would love to see how it plays out.

Well, Myrddin made plenty of ice jokes. I just think that he would appreciate it if the player made jokes about his favorite thing - clouds~

In fact, I was going to make another cloud joke - but, it would probably go over your head! Pfft! Sorry, I couldn't resist.

You know, I tried to catch fog once, but I mist!

...I'm done, now.

Well, I can't brush or comb his hair, and ruffling it is a sign of affection!

I think you shouldn't try to make an apk version since you have a browser version. Everything else in the game works fine. Besides, on Winlator, changing the graphics driver and dx wrapper will show the little hand cursor on other games, so it would work on this one.

Awesome! And, I know it's late, but I want to give him valentine's chocolate, and have him make an ironic remark about it.

You're welcome! It's for you and Myrddin that I make these suggestions. Sometimes people put their game on hiatus because they run out of ideas or lose interest in it. I don't want that to happen to this game.

Not that I am not confident in your ability to continue Interact With Me, but I really want to be able to keep playing this game.

And, I hope making this game makes you happy, and is something that you want to do.

I was going to tell another cloud joke too, but it wasn’t very uplifting.

...Yeah. Maybe my subconscious was simply protecting me from coming up with cloud jokes in the first place.

If there ever comes a reason for me to discontinue, which I really hope won’t happen, it definitely won’t be because I ran out of ideas. If there’s one thing I’m confident about, it’s creativity. 

Seriously, I’ve got a whole pile of other game ideas living rent-free in my head, and some of them could even connect to this one, building into a shared universe with little nods to each other.

Having an outlet for these stories, sometimes calm and sometimes absolutely raging, is really cool.  And I’ll admit, I always have this quiet hope in the back of my mind that one day it might become more than just a pastime.

Warm regards!
