Most of the work I have in here are already uploaded to Youtube on my channel.
However, I still got my old chiptune page for the older stuff right here: chiptune
Do note that this page only consists of direct embedded pages from Beepbox, Jummbox, and Ultrabox.

How I learned Game Development

I've been doing game development since I was around Grade 7. I got my start using Scratch after initially looking for online software I could use to animate. Sure enough, I found this animation suite called Wick Editor, and as it turns out, you could make games. It was in Javascript, which I struggled with at the time knowing nothing about code. I only made basic click adventures where you click an object to go to another frame with the tool asides from normal animations. It was later when I saw this tool on Youtube of someone making a game with code that looked like blocks. This was Scratch, which was a way easier way for me to start making games and learn the logic of how games worked behind the scenes.

Later on, Scratch felt too limiting to me as a platform, so I tried my hand at some modifications of Scratch, like E羊icques, until I settled on Turbowarp. As is with the nature of these kinds of game engines and coding platforms, I decided to try out Python. It was very general-purpose, and I really loved the hacker terminal feel to it, as I have previously written text adventures in Windows Batch (the thing that windows uses for scripts, those .bat files yeah) so I got pretty accustomed to it.

To this day, I still use Python because it is a very versatile programming language that can let you write programs from basic terminal interfaces and automation scripts, fun little utility applications and games, to training Artificial Intelligence and making programs that can run websites, databases, and mathematical visualization and statistics.

However, due to my goals at the time (that is to make games), I also decided to keep learning other programming languages like JavaScript when I was learning how to make websites (such as the one you're looking at right now!) or C++ when I was figuring out how to interface with an Arduino Uno or an ESP32. I would like to thank my burning passion to make games that are fun not only for me but for others, to introducing me to so many talents from drawing art and illustrations, making animations, learning how computers work, and especially to being able to compose my own songs and play instruments.

I mean, just look at the other three tabs as well as the links below, especially my itch.io page.
This entire website is basically a portfolio page.

As of submission, most of all I want to showcase is already there, though I will always continue to add more stuff that I work on. Techincally, I've finished the homework around ~6 years in advance? It's like making the homework before the assignment was given heh

I'm aiming to reach for the big four colleges in my country as well as some alternatives:

For one thing, that's obviously keeping my academics in check. I've settled for a low-medium line of 9 (quarterly score of 90-95).
Ever since I've gotten into senior high school, I started participating more in competitions like DOST-SEI's 9th imake.wemake. and Pinoy Robot Games' National Robotics Competition.
At the same time, I started taking commissions from my fellow students for things like technical design, game development, and robotics, though it's quite tiring.
What I need to achieve is to have better time management, which I'm starting to gradually do via note-taking apps like Obsidian so that when things get overwhelming, I can write down the tasks I need to do and get them accomplished later on.

I think it's pretty clear that I'm aiming for Game Development, either as an Independent Game Developer, or working in a studio in the gaming industry.
However, due to the current state of gaming, software engineering and cybersecurity/IT infrastructure seem to be great alternatives for me, since they still daddle with programming and/or networking.
If all else fails, then I'll pursue whatever makes me happy while still making some money. I would have ample time for game development at this point in my life which I can monetize, or I could start doing commissions again or start a little studio/business. I can also dedicate my time to online content creation with my Youtube and Twitch.
Perhaps I could also start some tutoring for those interested in programming? The future is uncertain, and that's both scary and exciting!
