Hi hi!

My little intro:

I make mods for Doom 1/2, usually joke mods aka "joke wads", not everyone considers making a mod or technically speaking a software patch a videogame, but a lot of people do, as doing so is technically still using a fully functional game engine, if we don't consider this game development, then big games like Genshin Impact which runs on Unity, are not real videogames.

So yeah just backing up that theory, anyway I've currently got this game in development that I'm making with another less mainstream game engine called BuildBox.

I've also got some more industrial monetizable  videogame ideas for the future, so stay tuned lol!

Games that inspire my games:

- Doom

I love the demonic gory imagery this game gives, the dark elements, lower lighting and everything, I just really love, and if I was to make a game that has these elements in, I would definitely be taking inspiration from Doom.

-  Saints Row

Saints Row has some of the craziest most extreme story transformations and twists, it's like your doing the smallest of things and then SUDDENLY your in space saving the world from aliens, and then your in hell and you have to literally kill Satan, and I'm talking about the whole Saints Row series, most of the whole story of Saints Row is pretty much like that, which I love, so I'd say a lot of the things I come up with take inspiration from this epic saga.

- Metroid Prime Series

The Metroid Prime Series of Metroid games are absolutely amazing, especially the 3rd game, I've replayed that game more times than Elon Musk has ever talked about colonising Mars and more times than Donald Trump has tariffed someone LMAO, I love the SCI-FI aesthetic the game uses, most SCI-FI aesthetics aren't very good in my opinion, but Metroid pulls it off correctly, and certain parts of these games depict other SCI-FI aesthetics, like the chozo planet seems to be depiction of SCI-FI Egypt, which I find cool, the graphics and artwork of the game, the gameplay, music, everything is just amazing and I've probably taken a lot of inspiration from this game and the whole Metroid series in general.

Other things that inspire my games:

(probably a lot of things tbh)

- PS2/PS3/XBOX360 Early 2000s games aesthetic

- Frutigo Areo aesthetic

- Shock horror aesthetic

- SCI-FI aesthetics

- American and British comedy

- 80s american shows

- Cybercore aesthetics

- Certain Hinduism aesthetics

- Memphis Cult

How does my brain generate these stories and games?

Well... idk tbh

But what I do is I drink lots of MONSTER ENERGY whilst listening to music and then I fall into these TRANZES and get super hyperactive because I'm a sped with adhd, and I start shaking my legs and everything, I do this in private, this is more embarrassing to me than masturbation lmao, but anyway then I start imaging my stories and game, I invision it all and then I make things real!
