Razbuten | The Color of Corruption - How Purple Is Used in Video Games @razbuten | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 6 minutes ago
If you're interested in watching bonus videos that you can't get anywhere else, I have a bunch of exclusive content on Nebula: nebula.tv/razbuten

I have been thinking a lot about the use of colors in games, so I wanted to make a brief little piece on one of my favorite colors, purple, and how in games, it often is used as the color of corruption. So, let's take a look at how purple is used in video games.
