I write adult erotic IF on occasion, and I know not everyone is into that. That's why I'm not tagging this to syndicate to Planet IF. But if you have any interest, I have a preview version of a new game, Breeding Princesses of the Planet Lesbonicon available on itch.io submitted to the second of two LewdJam2017 jams that recently completed. First LewdJam 2017 Second LewdJam 2017 I had started this a couple years ago for the hilariously named "Space F****** Jam" but wasn't able to complete it with resources at hand. The game is an adult pulpy space sex comedy circa 1982, very tongue in cheek, very very weird, and very very lewd. Check it out if you're interested in erotica, are of legal age, and are not on a corporate work computer. The text is explicit, but there are no pornographic images or sound - although some of the ambient music is funky or smooth-jazz suggestive of what you might hear in a porn movie. There is also a link to a spoilery-y...

ECTOCOMP , a yearly horror and autumn-seasonal competition that is often a welcome palate-cleanser following the smorgasbord of IFComp, is on again this year and is under new management. This year marks the return of both size categories, and the first time Ectocomp is actively bilingual, soliciting entries in Spanish. La Petit Mort is for speed IF created in three hours or less. Le Grand Guignol is for more elaborate games programmed in more than three hours.

Quick take: Starting almost immediately on itch.io is a "Summer Novel Festival" ( SUNOFES ) jam running to September 1st. This may be of interest to new IF authors not quite ready to jump into IFComp. A "jam" usually has lower stakes than a Comp; this one is no pressure, no judging, no prizes, just a sense of community focused more on the creation phase than the end product: An online game jam focused on adventure, interactive fiction, role-playing game, and visual novels. Starts July 1st, ends August 31st, annually. Feel free to start working before the festival begins. No one is required to start their work from scratch unless they want to. If you have any unfinished projects in mind, you're invited to use this festival for completing it. SuNoFES has no judging or prizes - the only rewards are those that come from the challenge and camaraderie with others. Takes place during July and August. Project must be a new game and have not been published before...
