HOBBIES
Outside of programming, I'm an avid fan of tabletop RPG games such as Pathfinder and D&D. I have played each system as a player and as a DM, and our group would create many wonderful, exciting, and hilarious moments.
Learning scripting languages as well as creating 3D Art and illustration are what I spend some of my downtime learning before going on hikes.
I also watch Gaming News, Design, Stories and Commentary channels on YouTube to keep myself updated on what's current in the gaming hemisphere.

INSPIRATION
Cave Story is a game I have played a lot in my childhood and holds a special place in my heart. I aim to create games that achieve the same euphoric feelings I've had when I first played it.
Developed by Daisuke Amaya alone, the game was a pioneer in the Indie Game movement, paving the way for other independent developers. Its success and critical acclaim make it a classic Indie Game that helped shape the modern video game industry.
