Hobbies

In general. I love to play video games , work on personal side-projects , experiment with new tech (hardware, software, frameworks & programming languages). I also love to learn new things, especially when it comes to programming. I'm always looking for new things to try out and experiment with. Things like low-level programming , game development , and such are things I've been experimenting with for a while now.

One of the things in tech that I've picked up just from self-study and experimentation is React.js and TypeScript . Which by now help me day-to-day to build cool stuff for the web and native (using Tauri.rs for instance)

Games I've been coming back to the most over the years are Rainbow Six , God of War , Assassins Creed , Watch Dogs , and Smite . As you can see from that little list, I play a large variety of games. I don't really have a specific genre that I play the most. I just play whatever I feel like playing at that moment or whatever people invite me for to play with them.

The more technical side of gaming is something I've been really interested in for a while now. I've been experimenting with tech like Unreal Engine (4 & 5) , Unity and custom stuff using SDL2 for instance.

So, what do I like this much about gaming? Well, I love the way it brings people together . I love the way it can help people escape from reality for a little while. I love the way it can help people with stress, anxiety, and depression. But for me personally, I love the way it can help me relax and find joy with others while also finding interests in the technical solutions they picked, build, and use.
