About Me
Well to start off, I am a senior at DSA (Durham School of the Arts), studying game design and 2D art. I'm interested in game design because games are the only interactive medium. Video games allow you to experience the ideas and visions of someone else but also lets you mold those ideas for yourself. I'm interested to see how game designers use psychology, mechanics, world design, and enemy placement to guide a player through the game. I also love to draw. I like to create my own stories. In my head, every drawing I have ever made has always had a story that explains the character's history.
About the Blog
This Blog will be mainly about my experiences with my game design class. This page will also have all that I have accomplished including my artwork, ideas, and writings. Please note that all of the stuff on this blog are my work only.
