IF Weekly Roundup
In the spirit of What’s New In IF?, which I quite miss, I’m going to try out doing a weekly roundup of IF news cross-posted both here and at Intfiction.org. This will include things like:
- Competition- and other event-related announcements (opening/closing dates, results released, etc.)
- IF-specific and IF-friendly jams on Itch.io (right now I’m not planning to include VN-only jams, but if anyone would like me to, let me know!)
- IF-related publications (new Rosebush articles, Choicebeat issues, etc.)
While I keep up pretty well with the comps etc. that get announced at Intfiction.org, I certainly don’t see all the IF news in every corner of every community. So if you see something that you think is worth including, please contact me and I’ll add it to the week’s post (and give you credit if you’d like).
FAQ
Q: I released a new game this week, can you include it in the roundup?
A: No, that’s outside the scope of this project. But feel free to announce it yourself in a new forum thread and/or make an entry for it on IFDB!
Q: Why won’t you include AI-related projects in the roundup posts?
A: I have an ethical stance against generative AI due to its reliance on work stolen from human creators and its massive negative environmental effects. I therefore have chosen not to platform projects that use these tools. I therefore have chosen not to platform projects that use these tools. If you notice that something has slipped past me (e.g., an AI-friendly jam), please let me know and I'll remove it.
