Other: Music

 A hobby I have entirely outside of school would be music, I have both originals and fanworks on my YouTube, page, I'll highlight a few noteworthy ones here.

I also have a soundcloud where things are much more organized:

Shadowbox

 This is what my SIP currently is, and it's been a rough road for development, I have little programming knowledge, I can think like a programmer, but when it comes to the languages themselves, I'm lost. Two previous versions of the game looked a bit like this For a moment while making this I thought that I may have to abandon the idea simply because I didn't have the skills necessary to build it to the quality I wanted. However, after reevaluating my engine options, I found that I can build the game in an engine I am intimately familiar with, I know Construct might not be the most professional thing these days, but for what I'm making, it'll do just fine. The game itself revolves around shadows, specifically, you can use various actions depending on where your shadow is, and you can move it around with a light source attached to your mouse. I have lots of ideas with moves, like putting your light beneath you, which makes your shadow really tall, letting you lift he

Older Works

 Though I don't consider these my best work, I have experience in Unreal and a couple other obscure engines and editors, these are a few videos of those projects. This was for a scripting class, where we worked in Unreal, the concept behind the level was that you would use switches in the foreground to move objects in the background, with the goal being to move the ball into the goal, which opens up the next puzzle. This one was even older, and even has a voiceover. This was more thematic, and actually has sound for this, though it's unfinished, I think it's a good showing of lighting effects. Both of these Unreal projects were coded using plueprints. https://youtu.be/UmU0ekD3cjY This is one I recovered recently, the original video is lost but I made a new one, this was made in Unity. The theme was to make a scavenger hunt, so I did some custom textures and did a color theme This was a simple stage made in the editor for A Hat in Time, which is just Unreal 3, for those curi

Community Statement

The Covid pandemic has changed a lot about video games and the community, and this has shown in both which games gained significant traction, as well as how developers have approached online services in games. Games that picked up speed as a result of people being stuck at home would be shorter, social experiences. The now hit video game Among U was actually released two years before this all really started, but only gained popularity now as a result of people being stuck at home. Another big example would be Fall Guys, a quick, run through of minigames with random other people proved to be very appealing. Developers too have been looking into more online features, the release of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is a testament to that, it's a game that you would not expect to have online co-op, but it's very likely that the pandemic was the reasoning to add it, even if the quality is sup-par, compared to other offerings. The fighting game community is easily the most af
