Only by Touch is Out Now!
Hey everyone!
The day has come: I'm proud to present my new game — Only by Touch. The first version is ready and available for free.

The Story
A four-year relationship came to an ugly end: jealousy, spying, and one final ultimatum. You packed your things and walked out — alone in a city that has nothing left for you. Not even a place to call your own.
Three weeks of apartment hunting. A hotel room eating through the last of your savings. Your last shot is a sunlit apartment in a quiet neighborhood. The landlady only rents to women — and there's a reason for that: Rose has been blind since birth, and letting a man she doesn't know into her home has never been part of the plan. That conversation should have been over in a minute. Somehow, you ended up with a new room — and a new roommate.
And so begins a story about two people learning to trust again. About an apartment that slowly turns into a home. And about a quiet life that ends the exact moment guests start knocking at your door.
They've Already Walked Into Your Life
Rose — a blind woman who loves music and books. She can't see your face, but she hears exactly what you're feeling in your voice. Her world is made of scents and sounds — and a touch means more than any glance ever could.
Mei — your boss and longtime friend. Elegant, with a slightly commanding streak, but always there for you when things get tough. She seems to have been waiting for something for far too long — and she's done waiting.
Maxine — a hurricane in human form and part of Rose's past. Lives on your couch. Promises not to cause any trouble. She's lying.
??? — the neighbor from the sixth floor. Glasses, black lipstick, and the smile of a woman who expects more from you than you can possibly imagine. You won't be able to ignore her. She won't let you.
Features
The game remembers your choices longer than you do: consequences will catch up with you even chapters later. But some mistakes can still be fixed.
Heroines with lives of their own. Each has her own personality, her own concerns, and her own reasons to knock on your door.
Dialogue you won't want to skip: humor, flirting, and heart-to-heart conversations.
Realistic, detailed renders — lighting, glances, and emotions that speak louder than any words.
An atmospheric soundtrack and immersive scene sound design.
Hidden artwork for the most observant players.
Pure story — no grinding, no stat leveling, no running around an empty map.
Work on the next update is already underway. I share my plans and progress in weekly dev logs — so make sure to follow!

Сюжет:
Четыре года отношений закончились ужасно: ревность, слежка и ультиматум. Ты собрал вещи и ушёл, оставшись один на один с городом, в котором у тебя больше ничего нет. Даже собственного угла.
Три недели поисков жилья и отель, доедающий остатки сбережений. Твой последний шанс — светлая квартира в тихом районе. Хозяйка сдаёт комнату только девушкам, и на это есть причина: Роза слепа с рождения. И пускать в дом незнакомого мужчину не входит в её планы. Этот разговор должен был закончиться за минуту. Но каким-то образом ты обзавёлся и новой комнатой, и новой соседкой.
Так начинается история о двух людях, которые заново учатся доверять. О квартире, которая постепенно становится домом. И о том, что спокойная жизнь заканчивается ровно в тот момент, когда в дверь начинают стучать гости.
Они уже вошли в твою жизнь
Роза — слепая девушка, любящая музыку и книги. Она не видит твоего лица, зато безошибочно слышит чувства в твоём голосе. Её мир — запахи и звуки. А прикосновения значат больше, чем любой взгляд.
Мэй — твоя начальница и давняя подруга. Элегантная, немного властная, но всегда готовая помочь в трудную минуту. Кажется, она слишком долго чего-то ждала — но больше ждать не собирается.
Максин — ураган в человеческом обличье и часть прошлого Розы. Живёт на твоём диване. Обещает не создавать проблем. Врёт.
??? — соседка с шестого этажа. Очки, чёрная помада и улыбка девушки, что ждёт от тебя большего, чем ты можешь вообразить. Ты не сможешь её игнорировать. Она не позволит.
Особенности
Игра помнит твои решения дольше, чем ты сам: последствия догонят тебя даже несколько глав спустя. Но некоторые ошибки ещё можно исправить.
Героини, у которых есть своя жизнь. У каждой — свой характер, свои заботы и свои причины постучаться в твою дверь.
Диалоги, которые не хочется проматывать: юмор, флирт и разговоры по душам.
Реалистичные, детализированные рендеры — свет, взгляды и эмоции, что говорят красноречивее любых слов.
Атмосферный саундтрек и звуковое оформление сцен.
Скрытые арты для самых внимательных.
Только история — без гринда, прокачки характеристик и беготни по пустой карте.
Работа над следующим обновлением уже идёт. О ближайших планах и прогрессе рассказываю в еженедельных дневниках разработки. Так что подписывайтесь!

Very nice, well done, the beginning promises well, the story is also very nice and interesting
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!
I really enjoyed playing through the story so far. Good Luck!
seems like a solid start. don't listen to the fools that come in wanting to tell you how to write YOUR game. if they don't like the interactions in the game, that's their choice. whether they exist is YOUR choice. write it the way it is in your head. minor little things might be acceptable for people to SUGGEST, but trying to change YOUR game to suit THEIR tastes and preferences is NOT acceptable. if you choose to make interactions we don't like, but give us the option to avoid them, that's cool. if you put them in the game, with no way to avoid them, that's fine, too. it's YOUR game. if i want to play it, i will, and if i don't, i won't. i refuse to criticize you for doing what you intended to do with the game, from the start. critiques should be about spelling/grammar issues, issues with renders, etc. if they don't like the story, then don't play the game. i don't see the point in criticizing the overall game just because it has content you don't like. you didn't have to play it. so, please, write this the way you intend, and if it pisses them off, let them be pissed off. it's time they grew up. after all, according to the laws of pretty much every country out there, they have to be legal adults to partake, anyway. they should start acting like it. and i hope, someday, TIF can get a revisit, when it doesn't put you in a bad headspace. but if it doesn't, such is life. you were honest about why you set it aside and didn't just leave us hanging. i can live with that. not like the dev that "dropped a game because he couldn't make enough money off it", when he's just put it up on steam.
got a roadmap with dates on when stuff is getting completed, not just percentages? thanks.
WIth what you said about a Harem but with efforts.. That just stacks up the challenges don't it!??? LOL
As Barney Stinson would say: Challenge accepted! 😁😁
Between the Commanding Boss lady with "needs", The Hurricane Girl room mate and her questionable intentions, and the Goth Girl on 6's apparent "Gotta Have His Attention" freaky issues for him I have a feeling that the MC in this story is in for a REEEAAALLLLYYY Bumpy Ride! I cannot wait to see how his relationship blooms with Rose with the challenges coming.
Greetings, author! I've been following your games for a long time, and I'd like to express my admiration for your work. OBT is another project that has captivated me with its beautiful storytelling from the very beginning. You are an excellent writer, 3D artist, and visual novel developer. I truly hope your game receives the attention it deserves. I'd especially like to commend your skill in writing characters. It's a joy to follow their stories. Thank you for all your hard work. I will definitely buy the game on Steam when it is released.
Can i pick only one girl and stick with her for the whole game without any NTR/NTS lesbo BS on that path?
Dev said you don't have to interact with them, but who knows about other girls.. I was also negativity surprised with Rose. Same thing could happen with goth girl or Mei, who knows.. Better wait for next update or more
I'm looking forward to full gameplay!
Really liked the girls and the writing. I will definitely get this on Steam when it comes out. Great work!
Thank you! Glad you like it!
I accidentally deleted a comment thread. Sorry. It mentioned that there are references to lesbians in the game and that you don't have to interact with them. There are many choices in the game, and you decide what happens.
Don't be rude man. I simply asked and you went a litte offensive..
Why you deleting comments?
I wanted to delete mine. I deleted the wrong comment.
male MC??
Yes
I'M F-IN READY, MATE 😁😛🤤🤪🤯🫨🙌🏻💪🏻🔥!!!!!!
I hope you like it!
will this be harem game?
Yes, but it will take some effort.
