Initial commit


Been on this site for about a month and just now I’ve found this blog section, so I thought I’d use it to post updates and news about what I’ve been up to.

A little bit about me: I’m 16. I’ve been programming on and off for about 6 years now, but about 5 months ago is when I decided to get very serious with programming. Since then, I’ve rarely seen the outdoors, in fact I don’t remember the last time I left the house..? I took some computer programming courses through Stanford University (EPGY). C was the first language I learned, then Java. Since then, I’ve used and dablled in various languages, libraries, engines, and frameworks, including: RCXcode, QBASIC, C/C++, Lua, C#, Java, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, Javascript, Coffeescript, JQuery, Ajax, Ruby, Python, PHP, MySQL, R, UDK, Allegro(4&5), SDL, SFML, and XNA to name a few.

Definitely my favorite, most-used languages are: C/C++, Java, and C#. Those are my strengths.

I’ve made a couple dozen little 2D games, and I’m always learning new stuff. I’m almost to the point where I feel ready to make a larger, in-depth, and polished game. Perhaps, here on GameJolt, I could find some collaboraters ;)

Right now I’m in a bit of a pickle. I’ve been using the same little craptop to program on for the past 6 years, and it’s at the breaking point. It can’t handle bigger programs, it crashes constantly, freezes up, etc.. It’s lifetime is up, and I’m waiting for a check, so I can buy a new computer and actually be productive, because right now development is verrrrrrrrry slowwwwwwww.

So right now, I’m not really doing too much. Hopefully I get some money soon, and then I can start working on a full game to upload here.

Until then, you can check out my little game — Jungle Scroll. I made it in 5 days in XNA as a little mini-challenge to myself, and I’m pretty happy with the results. Also, the source code is up on Github, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Well, I’m out. Peace.

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Heya! I wanted to show some gameplay progress i made so far. I hope you like it ^^

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.

Why walk when you can jump?

a drawing I did because I was bored😪. But I love how it turned out.😊

If you’ve played the Vault demo and enjoyed it, please consider ‘liking’ the game page here on Gamejolt and/or leave a comment!

Also please consider tossing Vault on your Wishlist, I really appreciate your support!

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)
