I think that my IF Posh\s new whatever was misunderstood. What I created is a poetical, lyrical more of a feeling than a game. Don\t await puzzles, who said they were needed in IF? Rather enjoy whatever short visit to a another world of fiction does the game offer you. I would like to open a discussion here on the problem of puzzles and lenght in IF, so move your fat asses and reply

I am one of the enemies of puzzle-based IF, instead I prefer a good story-based IF. But I was one of those who disliked your game because:
a) It was TOO short. You just did one or two things with minimum interaction.
b) Personally I didn't find it poetic. Instead it was rather poor.

Thank you for your input DarkAng3l, it is most valued.
AD a) I admit that Posh's New Year's Eve is very very short, but that was all I could do for my first attempt.
AD b) Please tell me why do you think it was "rather poor", some examples of what have you found to be "poor" would certainly help.
c) Wasn't there anything in Posh's New Year's Eve that you found rather nifty?

Posh�s New Years Eve is poor as far as the only objective is to fuck her and it is obtained within 3 turns of the game. Even the verbose descriptions don�t make it better. At least there should have been a more challenging "foreplay"...

Yes - there was a very interesting game I downloaded from somewhere, text-adventure, that worked in DOS.
It's objective was also to scr*w a girl, but you had to solve some puzzels and type a mixture of "fondle nipples, suck nipples, kiss nipples, ect..." before moving onto a different body section.
I showed it to my friend, and it was so awkward we only did it once (right at the end, one mistake and "GAME OVER!") but it involved going to a park, getting money, getting stuff with the money, then seducing her in your car (where you start off).
I'll have to see if I can download it from somewhere!

WHERE ARE THE EXPLICIT DESCRIPTIONS????
I have played many 3F games (find her, feel her, f**k her) and they were far more poetic than this. Just go to www.ifcomp.org and download the games: Chicks dig jerks(1999), Desert heat(2000) and Kallisti(2001) to see what I mean(Even though all three games suck)
Or take a look at Larry series.

a) Thank you for your opinions, I will make use of them in mz next game.
b) DarkAng3l, I would disagree - Larry series are rather humorous than poetic. I read about Desert Heat and it might be a very poetic game, but mine has some poetical references that IMHO can hardly be beaten. Just take into consideration that almost everything in PNYE is taking place in a dream, dreams tendo to be illogical and often short with little to do, but something unique to experience.

Ondre:
a) I sincerely hope you will. The world needs good IF authors(This is not ironic)
b) Everybody has an opinion. Personally I don't find the game poetic, but who am I to say so? I just proposed games to see what you could add to a 3F game! Actually I think my first game "Lovesong" had both poetic and romantic elements, even though most reviewers claim there is no point in this game. The fact is that I (And most of the reviewers) expected something more than a 1 minute game and something more erotic.
The point here is that you seem discouraged by bad critics. I say don't do that. Just concetrate on your next work. I got bad critics too, one of witch was anonymous and read: "Hope you and your game will be burnt together." You can guess the answer was featuring the well-known greek word starting with 'M'.
I wish you continue IF and show us a better work next time! By the way, have you played my game?

a) DarkAng3l, thank you for your encouraging words, I certainly will do my best to make my next game a more enjoyable experience.
b) I have indeed played your game, but had not enough fun with it to go beyond a few first turns, so I rather didn't judge it, but keep up improving and maybe...

Too bad. It changes after a while. It becomes a totally different game
