I recommend a few things you could be playing (One Room Game Comp, C40 entries) and something you could be writing.
We’re not supposed to talk about the ORGC games during the judging period, so I won’t. Of the C40 games, so far I’ve only played with Cryptographer, which aside from being implemented on the z-machine is not vastly different from other cryptogram puzzles. Still, entertaining if you like that sort of thing, and I do.

Did it feel strange to discover your own quotes in Cryptographer? (Probably less strange than appearing as an NPC in an IF game).
It did make me feel a bit — self-absorbed? I’m not quite sure what the right word is — to be deciphering my own quotes. On the other hand, they didn’t take me long to solve, so proportionally not much of the game was like that.
