Seattle IF is planning to submit a few panel ideas to PAX Prime around the first week of June. Currently there are a number of ideas for PAX and/or IF summit panels, including:

PAX ideas
  • The Best IF Games - Which and Why
  • IF vs. graphical games
  • (from PAX East) Storytelling in the world of interactive fiction
  • History of IF -> Current IF (The evolution of game style and player expectations)
  • Dynamic NPCs
  • Narrative Techniques - From Fiction to Fallout 3
  • Interactivity and Immersion
IF suite ideas
  • The Best IF Games - Which and Why
  • Freedom in IF (freedom of action, freedom of author, freeness of software)
  • History of IF -> Current IF (The evolution of game style and player expectations)
  • What makes a good story -> What makes a good story become good IF (or a good game in general)
  • CYOA-Style vs Exploration-Style
  • Available Authoring Tools (Ease of use - bridging the gap between author and programmer)
  • Ways to Author - Transcript, Map-based, Scene-based, Collaborative
  • Dynamic NPCs
  • Narrative Techniques - From Fiction to Fallout 3
  • Interactivity and Immersion
  • Developing an IF system
