The AIF minicomp is back! The minicomp is a mini-competition of small adult text-based games. Make
a game, submit it to the minicomp, and the AIF community will play them
and judge them.
This year, the minicomp will use a relaxed set of rules:
- No interactive sex scenes are allowed. Non-interactive sex scenes are allowed in the game, and there are no restrictions on the number or content of these non-interactive sex scenes
- No multimedia or graphics are allowed
- The game must be winnable (or at least it must have an ending that the player can reach)
- No playable part of your game can have been previously released to the public before August 25
The purpose of the rules is to make it easier for authors to create games by disallowing complicated interactive sex scenes. During sex scenes, players cannot be presented with any choices over what happens and players cannot be allowed to issue any commands. Before a sex scene starts, players can be given choices about what will happen, but once it begins, players should not be able to influence or interact with the scene until it ends. This restriction means that authors do not need to design any sex mechanics for their games, and they do not need to use any special sex engines or sex frameworks in creating their games.
Although games with multimedia and graphics are generally not allowed, if your game requires graphical or audio elements as part of its interface, such elements are acceptable.
