About me
Artistic impression of my face by MitchellFarted
Games are one of my greatest hobbies and many things in my life revolve around this main subject. Not only do I play them a lot, I speedrun them (mainly Portal 2 and Quantum Conundrum) and design levels / maps for them. A dream coming true would be working in the industry and making a living out of it. I'm well on my way as I'm currently studying Game Design and Production!
The sweet beats I'm listening to are almost always game soundtracks. If not, it will be something that was influenced by games or sounds close to something you'd find in a game. For instance, I really love the Game Grumps. Now the community has created some awesome remixes, some which I play at a near daily level. Most of the time, music is what inspires me to create and design.
Talking about stuff I make, I fill quite a lot of my time by creating stuff. First off, I know my HTML5 and CSS3 pretty good. That comes in a bundle with decent Javascript (and AJAX) knowledge. I know the basics of PHP too, but don't ask me too much about that. Poke around in my experiments if you're interested in these skills. Keep in mind I try to make it work for Chrome and Firefox and don't give a single fuck about damn Internet Explorer.
Secondly, I know my hammer editing. No, not one of those things with a piece of metal attached to the end of a stick. The level editor for Source, obviously. Having created a bunch of levels for Portal, Portal 2 and Team Fortress 2, I think I got the right to say that I'm decently skilled at level design too. Sure, I've got lots of stuff to improve on but hey, there aren't many of you that can say that they're better than me!
Finally, stuff I don't do on a regular basis but do know somewhat is 3D modelling and animating in Blender, video editing in Adobe Premiere and image design and editing in Gimp. Haters gonna hate. Oh and stuff in Audacity but shit anyone can do that.
