A hobby game developer living in the Tri-Cities, TN. I focus on programming systems and enjoy exploring game development history by building games.
As for influences, I grew up playing platformers, role-playing games, and real-time strategy games. I would love to build management games, but it's hard solo-dev-ing those, as the majority of the game has to be running in order to get a game loop going.
I am fascinated by game design, and I like to challenge myself by paper prototyping most games I build. Let me know your favorite prototyping!
I try to stick to Free and Open Source Software, so here are some tools I like to use.
