For “Outstanding Science Fiction”, I was actually rooting for @rileypb 's Galaxy Jones

It’s astounding what our brains can do with so little information. I read that “Thanks!” without any problem at all, just like the in-game “Galaxy Jones!”

It actually becomes harder to decipher when I consciously focus on the lines and curves.

The forum doesn’t do ASCII art well, at least not in some themes.

It had me gasping for breath with laughter at times, which I think was an intentional move to make puzzle-solving harder.

All part of my evil plan! Mwahahaha!

But seriously, I’m incredibly happy to see those results. Thank you to everyone who voted for my game, and congratulations to all the other winners!

EJoyce, Encorm, you did save that scrap of paper with my number on it, right? In case you want me to poke at Melpomene’s conversation options in a pre-premiére version of Margaret Williams, the Early Years: Melpomene Rising.

Of course! It’s locked very securely in a safe, where absolutely nothing could happen to it! Unless…

I’m a little late to seeing the results, but congratulations to everyone involved! Some great games here!
