Welcome to the projects page! Here you can view other projects which I've worked on with others in the past and present. There's only a few I can think of adding
right now, but I'm hoping to add more to this page in the future.
I've played many awesome video games over the course of my life which inspired me to begin work on my own. Below is a game project I worked on with a friend.
Imposter Syndrome
Imposter Syndrome is a game my friend Bogdan and I worked on in the Unity game engine.
He is very skilled at coding and did all the coding for this game using C# while I made all of the graphics and music. In his spare time he also often makes mods
for the video game "Rain World," so if you own the game you should definitely go check them out.
Anyways, our game is a 3D "horror" game where the player must escape a huge maze known as "The Backrooms"
while staying away from the various dangerous entities which lurk nearby. As our first real game project we tried to keep it relatively simple, although there are
some pretty cool features I'd like to talk about. Whenever the player starts or restarts the game, the maze is different every time as it is shuffled around.
The different entities in the game were modelled and animated by me using Blender (one of which you can see on the 3D Stuff page). Additionally,
each entity has a unique behaviour, such as Quandale Dingle who will call upon all other nearby Quandales to your location or Hamood Habibi who knows where you
are at all times and gradually speeds up towards you over time. Those are just some aspects of this game we made. If you want to download it the GitHub page is down below. If you don't want to download it
however I also have some photos and videos of the game which you can watch. Currently the game is on indefinite hiatus, since we couldn't get cutscenes to work
and there was the whole Unity fiasco where they tried to charge for downloads.

I have also worked on making mods for video games. Mods can completely change how a game is played or add new stuff to it to keep things exciting. Below is a mod
I worked on with the Rain World Detroit Team.
ScugZero
ScugZero is a mod for the video game "Rain World". In this mod the player will be able to control a new character we call Zero who has a fierce katana to cut
through the enemies in the world of Rain World. They will also have the ability to slow time and do some cool moves. Essentially, this mod combines the gameplay of
"Katana Zero" with Rain World to create a new and exciting experience. This mod is currently being developed by the Rain World Detroit Team which encompasses me and four others.
One of those four others is the talented artist Carmineder who made the pixel art for
this project including the wonderful ScugZero logo above.
I am
making the music and sound effects for the mod, as each region of the game will have a new remix that accompanies it. In addition to custom music and sounds, the mod
will also feature boss battles and beefed up enemies to create a more rigorous challenge for the player. Below is a link to the Detroit Team Tumblr page where
you'll see occasional updates on the mod.

Fantasy worlds that don't exist are really cool since the rules of reality can be bent in any way shape or form, so I wanted to make my own. Below is a worldbuilding
project I passionately began many years ago.
Hidden Lake
Hidden Lake is an old project of mine which I started working on in middle school. It details a mysterious lake on an island far away from any other land. In and
around this lake are alien plants and animals which call the lake home. The lake itself is over 12 kilometres deep and home to over 150 unique species with many different biomes and
environments. Some of the things around the lake are so outlandish they couldn't exist anywhere else other than the lake. I originally came up with this idea
when I was taking a stroll around a lake with my dad. I was telling him about the "Kong: Skull Island" movie I had recently watched and its wild creatures. I also
had and still have a fascination with natural histry and the evolution of species as well as the way differnent species adapt to new changes. As I stared at the
snow and ice-covered lake I was walking around (which you can see a photo of above during the fall season), a spark of imagination brought on by everything in my mind began concting ideas for new, strange plants and animals.
That day I went home and began drawing every single idea I had along with creating a short description about each species and some other information about them like
their diet and depth they live in the lake. I stopped working on Hidden Lake a few years ago as I created the last species I wanted and closed the Hidden Lake
almanac. Perhaps however, I may bring Hidden Lake back in some form in the future. Only time will tell. Below is a Google Drive link you can click on which will show
you everything Hidden Lake has to offer. In the drive you'll find little info cards of all the species as well as some old music tracks I made to represent the lake's
various environments.

I'm not the best at writing. In fact, I'm probably quite repetitive. That hasn't stopped me from writing just for fun however. Below is a writing project
I spent a lot of time on.
Steam Chat Multiverse
Steam Chat Multiverse is a "story" my friend Bogdan
and I created over Steam Chat during online school. We were both online all year so we had lots of time to brew this story. Originally we created it in a choose your own
adventure style. One of us would play as a character and the other would create the events based on the character's actions. This went on for a long while until
we finally ended the story. Afterwards I thought, what if I rewrote this story like a book and added a bunch more details? So I got to typing. Below is a link
to the most chaotic, nonsensical and wild "story" you've ever seen. The general plot (which may be hard to identify) follows the main character Blue Boi through his multiversal adventures as well
as the other quirky cast of characters he meets along the way. Currently the story is unfinished and on indefinite hiatus, since as I typed it out I felt as though my intelligence was decreasing
with every chapter finished and it took up a lot of time. If you dare read this over 180 page long Google Doc, be warned that your brain will suffer from
sensory overload, especially after chapter 20. That's when the crazy stuff begins happening. I also want to make this clear, I am in no way a profesional or even
decent writer. This story was made purely for goofs, laughs and entertainment. Don't take it seriously.

Currently these are the only few projects I feel are worthwhile to be on this page. In the future I hope to add lots more to this page. I really do love
working on passion projects, especially with others who are more skilled in other areas than I. Through working on projects like these I improve my current
abilities which I will hopefully be able to use for more ambitious projects in the future.
