Hey there!
I'm a 17 year old student of Music Technology in college in the United Kingdom, after this I'd hope to go to university and then enter the games industry, perhaps involved in writing music for games? Anyway, I like to keep my horizons open and I love learning new things - programming, art, music (obviously), etc.
I take a lot of inspiration from the GBA / DS era of games, I grew up playing them after all, and I feel like a lot of that translates into my own work now. I'm currently working on a few personal projects outside of college, including some GBA homebrewing - if I'm gonna call back to that era of games I might as well delve into the nitty gritty of how it works, right?
Some of my favourite games include Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure, Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter, ALL the Pokemon games (spinoffs included), the GBA Fire Emblems, Zachtronics puzzle games such as Shenzen I/O and Opus Magnum, Into the Breach, all the Rhythm Heaven games from the GBA to the 3DS, Celeste... I feel like I could keep going but long lists are hard to write and harder to read so I'll spare you it for now! Point being, I love all sorts of games from all sorts of eras - I'm always open to suggestions of games to try out!
Anyway, I'm really excited to get to know everyone and share what we have to know - I've noticed there's not a ton of information on the GBA in an easy to gather space anymore (RIP Pern Project) so perhaps that'll be my first big contribution here, you never know
