Hello Fest Fans!
It would appear CCP just keeps adding more goodies to this year’s Fanfest! One of the fun things they have added is a Third Party Developer Panel, and I have found myself fortunate enough to be presenting on the topic of UI/UX. Continue reading
You have no choice but to believe in free will.
Well, everything is a go. My publisher has approved distribution of Mendre: After Hours Vol. 1 Anthems for March 1, 2012.
