I've been slowly learning how to use Stencyl and quietly jotting down game ideas as they come to my head.

Hiya my name is John but I prefer to be called by my alias Teal. I was brought into video gaming by my uncle who had the NES. When he moved away he gave it to me and I sure got hooked on it. I've gotten an Atari (don't remember which one), SNES, GEN, Gameboy, N64, PS, PS2, GBA, DS, Wii, and a 3DS. Of course I play games on my PC. For genres I'm mostly into Adventures with plenty of exploration such as RPGs and I also like platformers. Less so on FPS it just isn't my thing.

I decided that I wanted to try making my own games when I started playing attention to level designs in the Mario games and Megaman. Even more when I researched sprites and how they are made and how Flagging is used in games to track the player's progress and to block the player's progress if they haven't met certain conditions yet.

In college I started taking game design courses however I couldn't get myself interested in the coding classes. I really wanted to do learn it but I struggled too much with the subject I'm convinced that it's not for everyone. So I put my game designing dreams aside...then I discovered Stencyl a few years ago.

I'm planning to eventually make a game called Time Thief which is going to be a Kirby/Wario/Megaman style platformer. I'm thinking I should wait to repost the game idea and start working on it until I get good feel on how to use Stencyl. I'm strongly considering collabration to keep your ears open.  ;)
