I think the world should know that I would have voted for Swanglass if
there'd been a category that suited it.
Next year, there should be a prize for best object.

"Best Use of Medium" is a good category to vote in for an especially
well-implemented game. Admittedly, the category usually goes an
unusual use of the medium in general, but I do see some nominations for
games that have good implementations, like Sunset Over Savannah,
Worlds Apart, and Varicella.

But Swanglass had too little to interact with to be called
well-implemented, in my book. I'm talking about Best Individual Object.
