I want to thank all the participants on this year Ectocomp and also to Ruber for supporting the comp. There are 23 entries this year, fantastic number.
Good luck for the authors and for all of us let's enjoy playing the games.

I know it took me a few times to get things (right/not totally wrong) with itch and Inform, but I think things have gone smoothly on the 6th or so try. I'd be glad to write up a tutorial, and I think some people who just entered a zblorb file would be glad to learn how to embed it in a webpage. I'd also assume this would count as an allowed update for Petite Mort, since no story text is changed.
Would such a thread be better here or on intfiction.org?
Also, 36 ratings already. Wow!
Andrew, I have a post at int-fiction about submitting IF at itchio. Maybe you can continue from there, or create a specific post for inform. And we can cross link us here and there.
Take a look

Best regards.
Oh my! It turns out I actually liked posts in that topic. So it probably already helped me a lot. I think it does a great job of covering the big points. From what I recall, it made sense then, and it makes even more sense now.
I may wind up just adding screenshots of what exactly to click and what to delete, because--well, I might forget a detail or two for my next project, and having a reference would be nice.
And even for those of us that have published an HTMLized Inform project to itch.io, there's that stray stuff that'll slip through.
