WELL, WELL, WELL, LOOK WHO'S FORCED TO WRITE ABOUT THEMSELVES... I mean, who doesn't love a good game of SELF-PROMOTIONAL TWISTER, where you try to describe yourself without sounding like a TOTAL NARCISSIST?!
Anyways, I'm Mingo - a fake name I've chosen because it's so easy to remember.
So, ABOUT ME... cringes... I'm a [insert vague description here]
I started learning game development in 2018 while working on group projects at university. I have experience with Unity, Unreal Engine, and other industry-standard software.
In 2023, I decided to focus on visual novel development and began self-teaching in Ren'Py.
I have a deep nostalgia for the old web.
What I liked about GeoCities was that people could express themselves freely, without the constraints of modern social media. I was too young to own a site or PC back then, so I missed out on the experience.
I launched my Neocities site around October 23, 2020, a year after GeoCities shutdown. I had no idea Neocities was a thing, so I created my own site to relive my old dream.
It makes me happy to see view counters, fanlistings, and webrings making a comeback, which shows I'm not the only one who misses that era.
For me, it's more than just nostalgia – I'm still stuck in the 2000s and 90s, where the world felt more colourful and alive to me.
Sanrio: my melody
Ghibli: catbus, laputian robot troopers, boh (rat form), the soot sprites, the smaller totoros that's blue and white (idk their names)
Pokemon: dragonite, haunter, psyduck, slowpoke
mario: big boo, shy guy, dolphin, chain chomp, bob-omb and others still more to add...
