Please send them via a private message to fos1 at intfiction.org

Thanks, Jeff

I will need shipping addresses for the award winners: 1st and 2nd for Freestyle and 1st, 2nd and 3rd for classic.

You can send your info to jgreer613@gmail.com or to fos1 via private message on intfiction.org.

Thank you, Jeff

Good deal. Even though there are only a few days left, you should post this on the Interactive Fiction Forum.

Thanks, fos1

Good deal. The playable link should be added to Ra T game page on itch.io (if it hasn't already).

Thanks, fos1

A little fidly to get running. Garry's tip for running the game was the only way forward.

This is an enjoyable game. Navigation was a little cryptic but doable. I like the color presentation and the scrolling of the text as it would have been in retro parser games.

I was able to download a REXX interpreter for Win11 to play Moon-House Technician. I found it ot be an enjoyable quest reminiscent of a 16 bit retro game. It is based on a menu system where an 11 year old ends up exploring the Moon. As the into suggests, it is best to leave the interpreter running and come back to the game as you find time.

I was also able to upload the game source to sdf.org and play the game on their system. This might be useful for players that don’t want to download and install an interpreter on their local machine.

After a while the game became mechanical. I still like the game and figured out a way to get to the end after being returned to the Earth a couple of times. 

The retro based game is creative and a good play.

I hope your game does well!

Garry is correct. Each author retains the rights to their work. Submission to other comps would depend upon their rules.

Did you intend to remove this game from ParserComp 2024?

If not please notify me on the comp page and you will be able to add back to the comp.

Thanks, Jeff (fos1)

Fixing typos and clerical errors should not be a problem. It would be best not to make significant changes in the game.

The entry period for ParserComp 2024 is now over.

Please release and publish your games. We need to ensure they are available for judging.

Thank you

I am not sure what you mean by a demo game. Entries should be fully playable. I expect that a demo game would not be rated well during judging.

Updates for typos and bug fixes are OK but not new content. 

It is ok. voting starts in a day. With the games set to public we can sort out any problems before voting starts.

Thank you, Jeff

Thank you for the tip. I will go back and copy that linke.

Jeff

Hi WauloK,

Yes. That would be the proper thing to do. 

I'm looking forward to your game.

I'll check the Discord server and see if I can figure out what's going on there.

Thanks, Jeff

PS. I changed permissions on the Discord server. Let me know if it is working as it should.

Thank you, Sir.

A very nice game! I'm still testing. A walkthrough would be nice.

Yes. Beta testing is fine. The game cannot be published or available to the general public before the start of judging.

Hi Kanderwund,

The Classic / Freestyle selection problem must be a bug. :( 

I will see about fixing that this morning. 

I believe the bug is now fixed. Please edit your game submission to ensure it is listed in the proper category. You may have to delete and re-submit the game. Please let me know how it goes. (Thank you!)

You are correct the submitted games cannot be viewed until the judging period begins.

Thank you for letting me know about the bug. And thank you for your game submission!

There is no theme. It is based on what the reviewers think is the best game.

Absolutely. Any game that has not yet been published is qualified to enter.

Hi Ragi,

I have fixed the category selection option on the submission form. Please go back and select the proper category.

Thank you for entering!

Resolved. Maintaining status quo. Authors still have the option to opt out of placement in the IF Archive.

If games on ParserComp are required to be the IFTF IF Archive, will that discourage you from entering?

Thanks, fos1

Feel free to ask question about ParserComp 2024 here. You can either start a new thread or add to this one.

Thanks, fos1

I have purchased the game with a small dollar amount. It is excellent as all of your games are. Very well written and implemented. 

Thank you, Jeff

Thank you very much!

I'll be baaak. ;)

The game looks very nice.  I cannot find a purchase link.

Thank you, Fos1

Thank you for the update info. Very helpful.

Hi smartgenes,

Are you trying to submit a game for ParserComp?

If so, what was the development system?

There is a link to play Sea Coral online if you go to the game page. Thank you.

How should the game be placed into the Jam, as Z-code or something playable via html?

Borogrove seem to be borked for storing games currently.

I started reviewing last night. I have been looking at my old game, the Beginner Guide and the Punyinform 4.1 Manual. I am pretty sure I will be ready when the theme is announced. After writing my Ecto entry in I7 and going back  to TADS for my current game, the code all runs together. 

Thanks, Jeff

I had most of a game written for an earlier Punyjam.

I need to get back up to speed. What is the best sequence to read the documentation to start writing again?

Thanks, fos1

I can see why this game received so many ratings. It is an excellent game. I love the narrative.

This is a brilliant game. It reminds me of the Dr. Seuss books I used to read to my children. 

I took off a point because I couldn't navigate the rhyming moves to navigate without resorting to the walkthrough.
