What's New In IF? Issue 1 (2024)
By Erika, Marjorie, Alex, Zach and Noi
Now Available!
Itch.io - Google Drive - Keep Reading below
EDITORIAL
We were always just lurkers…
But no more!
We were always just lurkers…
But no more!
We had been talking for a while about the Interactive Fiction community, and wondering what we could to do… you know, do our part to help it become its best self.
And out of all the things available out there, between the directories and the group chats, the forums and the discord servers… it can get pretty overwhelming to be part of it all, to keep track of everything. And we realised there wasn't really a newsletter for IF. Something that tracks of what is happening…
RIGHT NOW!
So why not just… make it happen?
Like a lot of things, What's New in IF started on a whim. But we hope we can turn it into something great. Something that can help the community keep track of what's happening.
And we hope that you will join us too!
PS: we did cheat a bit on some dates for this edition :{

HIGHLIGHT ON...
A couple of games that we thought were cool.
Social Democracy: An Alternate History
by Autumn Chen (DendryNexus)
That weird political game that took Twitter by storm, so strongly that
there's even a fan subreddit where you can share your stats. It's all
about what might have been…
i won't finish this game by Naarel (RenP’y)
An emotional visual novel about being a struggling indie dev game
developer and depiction of suicide in narrative games. It is very short
and hits hard.
Eat Me by Chandler Groover (Inform)
It was weird, it was gross… It's just genius. There's no way to describe how insane this game is. Maybe the most disturbing escape game ever made. No wonder it's so highly rated and won awards…
TG for walkthroughs!
Your favourite game here?
Do you have a favourite game that deserve some highlighting?
Tell us about it!
A old or recent game that wowed you so much you want to spam it to
everyone?
Tell us about it!
We'll add it to the page!
FINAL WORD
We... don't really know what we're doing.
Yes, it's true!
Not a lot of thought process went into making this.
We actually started putting this together at 3-4am after making the Tumblr Blog.
We haven't really made any plan on what should or should not be included in this zine. We just knew we wished we had something like this when we started.
So while it may seem bare right now, we hope, in time, to fill all the pages, and even add more, as we find more projects, and events, and other IF- related stuff to share!
But for that…
We need your help.
Did you find a cool game that was just released?
Or a project that shared a demo or update?
Did you come across some cool event?
Or found a neat article/blog post talking about IF?
Then, shoot us an ask or submit it on our blog!
THANK YOU!!
ERIKA, MARJORIE, AXEL, ZACH, AND NOI

Audio
[Verse 1: Lady Miss Kier, (Bootsy Collins), (Q-Tip)]
The chills that you spill up my back keep me filled
With satisfaction when we’re done
Satisfaction of what’s to come
I couldn’t ask for another
No, I couldn’t ask for another (You know that’s right)
Your groove I do deeply dig
No walls, only the bridge
My supper dish, my succotash wish (Sing it, baby)
I couldn’t ask for another (Uh huh, uh huh)
[Slide whistle]
No, I couldn’t ask for another
[Slide whistle]
[Chorus: Lady Miss Kier, (Bootsy Collins)]
[Slide whistle]
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart
Groove is in the heart (Astronomical)
Groove is in the heart
(Watch out)
