Skills

I program in these languages:

I excel at many creative/artistic practices like:

I often excel using creative software like:

Above all, I am a highly artistic and creative programmer/individual. My spirit is ingited upon seeing the possibility of expressing myself artistically through code. I am a front-end focused programmer and excel at higher level programming langauges like python.

Artistic Programming Project Flippy Bit

This is easily seen in my reinterpretation of the game

‘Flippy Bit And The Attack Of The Hexadecimals From Base 16’.

The game can be found online on their website

I call my version of the game

‘Flippin Bit’

Flippin Bit is a reinterpertation of Flippy Bit. I programmed it in Python using the Pygame library to utilize the library’s sprite, audio looping, and text display functionality. I drew the sprites and background art myself and composed my own musical track.

Although my version of the game still isn’t where I want it to be I have made progress with my vision for it.

Here are the things I would like to implement where the checked items are parts I have already implemented:

The hardest part about this project was learning about game loops because some of the concepts like delta time were unintuitive.

Although these are only a few lines of code, it is responsible for keeping the entire game running:

#GAME LOOP
while True:
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            pygame.quit()
            sys.exit()
        for cluster in cluster_list:
            cluster.bit_flip_main_looper()

Goals

My goals as a software engineer are to

  1. Use my technical skills and experience for altruistic purposes.
  2. Improve the daily lives of others with developed software.
  3. Contribute to a personally meaningful project with a great team.
