For anyone who's interested, there's a feature on the IFComp in the latest
issue of Retro Gamer magazine. Four games reviewed - the games which placed
1st, 2nd and 3rd and my very own entry way down at 23!

It's a British computer magazine, although you might be able to order it
overseas. It's available in most newsagents.

I saw one at a Barnes & Noble about a month ago.

I guess the best thing to do would be let him know the webpage url no?

(main page) http://www.livepublishing.co.uk/retro/
(issue 11, that he spoke about)

Nothing to do with me, honest guv'nor. I guess they just liked the game.

Yes your game was apparently Keith Campbell's favourite out of all this
year's IF Comp entrants. Congratulations! Keith Campbell of course being
the person who wrote the article in this month's Retro Gamer. He's a
well-known (at least in the UK) IF columnist from the 1980s. I'm hoping
that his increased involvement in the magazine might mean more retro IF
content. In the article he commented that he was very impressed with the
quality of the games in this competition. He's only recently back in the
'IF scene' though so won't be so familiar with earlier years' games.
