IF Comp, Coverage of IF Comp Begins

by Nick Montfort · , 11:21 pm

The games are out for IF Comp 2006 – head to the downloads page to slake your thirst on a torrent of interactive fiction. The number of games is up from last year, to 44. If you know even a bit about IF, you’re very likely to recognize some of the names of entrants this year; a variety of development systems, including the new ones, have also been put to use on this year’s games.

Also of note: Karl Parakenings has kicked off his coverage of interactive fiction in his “Cardinal Points” column with an interview of Stephen Granade.
