First of all, I would like to welcome you to my little corner of the Internet. My blog is a place for me to share my ideas with the rest of the world. Chances are I will have some regular updates about things going on, a few rants here and there, and from time-to-time an article about something I am passionate about.
Rhythm Gaming
At my heart I am a rhythm gamer. I fell into love with rhythm games in general ever since I stepped foot onto a dance mat playing DDRMAX on the PlayStation 2. It was an influential addition to the series and introduced me to a lot of different styles of music I would’ve otherwise ignored.
Favorite Songs from DDRMAX: Gambol, Matsuri Japan, and Sana Molette ne Ente.
Favorite DDR Songs: Ace for Aces, The World Ends Now, and HyperTwist.
While Dance Dance Revolution was my introduction into rhythm games, my favorite game of all time is beatmania IIDX. IIDX is a rhythm game that requires a lot of patience, a lot of practice, and a willingness to fail the same song hundreds of times before finally getting it. One could make the overused joke that it’s the “Dark Souls” of rhythm gaming.
What I Play:
- beatmania IIDX
- BMS (Community-Driven IIDX)
- Dance Dance Revolution
- Arcaea (Switch)
- Kalpa
Writing
Whether I am just shouting into the void or writing notes for myself, I enjoy writing. I tend to enjoy both technical and creative writing, though my experience definitely leads me more towards the technical side of things. For nearly a decade I had served as a content writer for a web-based business which provided me a lot of experience in both the research side of things and creating articles that hold SEO benefit.
With my blog I am aiming to explore things a little more creatively while also discussing technical topics that I am passionate about.
