Aspiring game developer and artist who wants to be fully independent. I was getting into more geeky stuff when I started high school, which made me want to make my own projects based on the things I like. Thus, I started learning using resources on the internet.

My goal is to make my own webcomic and anthology video game series.

Though right now, my current laptop is too weak for that… I do plan on getting a better one though! I’m using my current laptop for just web development and art.

I’m currently a senior in high school who’s planning to go college to learn game dev (though I’d rather be self-taught…). I tend to be by myself most of the time, and I like it that way.

You can see I like Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure a lot. I'm choosing to represent myself as Kosaku Kawajiri cuz I love his design.
