Projects
First up are some games I wrote in high school. Both were learning experiences — of the two, I think that Minesweeper is better designed, from a coding point of view. Block Dude’s UI layer is terribly overdesigned and difficult to comprehend. I would never rewrite it that way!
Minesweeper Clone
A simple Minesweeper clone. It supports logging the game (in JSON format, of course) and playing it back later.
Greasemonkey User Scripts
I write Greasemonkey scripts almost habitually nowdays. I find that JavaScript — when freed of the tyranny of Microsoft’s deficient JScript implementation — is actually a fun language to write things in. So it is quite pleasant to “scratch an itch” one in a while.
