IFComp 2023

Finally started drawing up my annual list of the IFComp interactive fiction games I will aim to play, judge and review first. Health and time permitting. Now have 2 tightly written handwritten pages of notes about 24 of this year’s 75 entries. A nice mix of genres, parser and choice etc. https://ifcomp.org

Some people prefer to go for a random order of games. But because my time and energy is so limited I prefer to note down those that jump out to me as wanting to try them. And then pick from that initial list. I doubt I’ll get through all these 24. But it would be nice. If I do I could tackle other ones. Though that probably won’t happen!

For fellow stationery enthusiasts that is my fine nibbed Lamy 2000 fountain pen with Diamine Chocolate Brown ink, writing on an Atoma-style disc journal with removeable/insertable pages.
