Viridian Games

Viridian talks about his kids, game development, and anything else that comes to mind.

Links

I’m sick of link sidebars. For one thing, they take up part of your screen 100% of the time while you only look at them maybe 1% of the time. (The same could be said for the navbar on the right, but…well, it’s a necessary evil).

I also hate the fact that I can’t talk about links that are in a sidebar. I can’t explain what they are and why I chose them. Thus, I have decided to give my links a page unto themselves, which just happens to be the page you are looking at now.

So here we go!
