This site was created in the Fall of 1998
I started programming back in 5th grade which was about 10 years ago. Back then I hardcoded everything which basically means I didn't know how to program and also means I put alot of effort into that stuff. I've probably made about 200 hundred uncomplete games and maybe 5 complete ones. Also about 10 VB programs, which doesn't seem like really programming. As a few years passed I started to walk to the libary and pick up books on programming. I learned some good stuff, but it wasn't until I teamed up with Draco my senior year that I actually started looking at games, studying them, and figuring out why they did that or look like that, and then I developed my own techniques. Later on learned those techniques were very similar to other people's techniques. As Draco and I developed further into our RPG I learned more techniques and now I feel that I am a skilled programmer.
My Games are usually RPGs or Sims and I am usually in them somewhere(bad habit), also some other people I know might be in them somewhere.
In person I am quiet and somewhat depressive, unless I have some alcohol in me and am being talked to. I program because I like to Create and Improve things(I also like playing games where these elements take place.. RPG, Sim, Strategy). The other reason I program is because I like the problem solving part of it and optimizing, which are kind of like Improving. I don't have alot of motivation though so I don't program as much as I would like to. I also usally stop working on a project because I get another idea in my mind. I also demand some respect. I hate not being able to get my point across or when people pretend to know what I'm saying and end up screwing things up. I have a certain look and people who don't know me usually ask me if something's wrong or think I'm giving them a dirty look. I am very loyal to my good friends, but am also very paranoid and question some of my friendships that I might have.
It all basically ties into each other... Learn about something then get Power to Create/Improve it. At first I liked writing stories and making paper game I could play with my friends and then I learned programming... unlike Writing I the user could have a choice, and unlike both the user could see my ideas/ better.
Recently I've been working on my graphical skills as opposed to coding. The picture on the side is suppose to be a self portrait of myself, if I was in a fighting game.
Favorite Games(4 per system):
Power Stones 2(DC), Rival Schools 2(DC), Tony Hawk 2(DC), Driver(PC), Civalization 2(PC), Heros of Might and Magic 3(PC), Shadow Run(SG), Earthbound(SNES), Chrono Trigger(SNES), FF3(SNES), Rivercity Ransom(NES)
I perfer Counsole Games over Computer Games. GBA looks the best on the market.
