Post subject: Looking for feedback / cross-post
Archived from groups: rec>games>int-fiction (more info?)

As some of you may have seen, I'm a newbie gradually feeling things out
at the forums
to figure out, among other things, how newbie-friendly they are!!!

I REALLY wanted to try my hand at writing and so started working up a
little one-room game. [Braces herself]. In ADRIFT. (There, I said
it!) I know that I just fell down at least nine pegs in most of your
eyes, but hey... nothing ventured, nothing gained, right? The working
title of this unfinished (barely begun, really...) piece (boy... I
think I'm giving mysef WAY too much credit by calling it a "piece!") is

"It's Easter, Peeps!"


Basically, I was wondering if someone would simply be willing to take a

look at it, maybe record their transcript, give me feedback,
suggestions, criticisms, etc. And, I'm looking for HONEST feedback.
In other words, if the game that I have started isn't good enough to
finish, that's okay... I'd just as soon know that and start over on a
game with more potential. So if the game doesn't draw you in or
doesn't work or is just plain-old lame, please do me a favor and tell
me so!!!!


Please reply if you are interested in taking a look at this very small
file for me and offering your comments. I'm interested in any and all
feedback, but especially feedback about whether this is a game that
makes you want to keep playing it or not. In other words, is it a game

you might enjoy playing in its finished state?


Thanks! I'm looking forward to learning more (MUCH more!!!) from these

forums and I plan to start looking at archived posts, playing more IF
games, etc. Any suggestions you have for a newbie author are welcome
and much appreciated! I know that a lot of sub-par IF comes out from
newbies, but sometimes we CAN be taught!


Thank you for you time and consideration! Please let me know if you'd
like to fiddle around with my little 9kB "start-of-a-game" file and
give me some constructive feedback. Thanks!
