Any must-play games so far? I've just browsed through the list of parser games briefly, but I'm going to start with the Ryan Veeder one I think. There's a QB64 game called Have Orb, Will Travel that allegedly has "a comprehensive and powerful parser." I WANT TO BELIEVE. There's also a C64 game called Artful Deceit. We've even got Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Stiffy Makane fan games...exactly what we needed!

Each essay hones my research skills and deepens my understanding of complex topics. While the workload is heavy, it's gratifying to see my thoughts take shape on paper, and the sense of accomplishment with each submission is undeniable. Sure, it's a balancing act, but it's also a crucial part of my educational journey, teaching me discipline and time management. Ultimately, these essays are not just assignments; they're stepping stones to becoming a more knowledgeable and articulate individual.

Writing fiction is an art form that allows for the exploration of human experience through the power of imagination. It's a craft where writers create characters, worlds, and narratives that can evoke a wide range of emotions and thoughts in readers. Fiction writing is not just about telling a story; it's about weaving a tapestry of ideas that can transport readers to another reality. It requires a delicate balance of creativity, structure, and language, challenging writers to delve deep into their creative wells to produce something truly captivating and unique. Ultimately, fiction is a reflection of life, embellished by the writer's unique voice and vision.

I was wondering the same thing. I won't have much time for it this year just like last year as it is still off-season cram-time at the park. I am not the biggest Veeder fan. Taco Fiction for example frustrated the shit out me at some point.
