IFComp 2012: Signos
Posted November 8, 2012 Comments(0)
Comments(0) Signos is the sole entry this year written in Quest. I had trouble getting this to run on my machine, even with a fresh install of what I believed to be the latest Quest interpreter. I probably still had the wrong version for this game somehow, but I gave up trying, because there was a simpler option: play it online. That’s actually been an option for most of the games this year: the ability to play games through a web browser instead of downloading an interpreter seems to be simply part of what an IF system has to do now.

Comments(0) And now for this year’s sole game written in Alan. As usual, I’m playing the games in a randomized order, but the singletons seem to be all clumped together. Spoilers follow the break.

Comments(0) Our next game is by one Ned Yompus, but I strongly suspect that this is a pseudonym, for reasons that will shortly become clear. Spoilers follow the break.
