So, what exactly is there to say about me?<br />
Surprisingly, I've been a member of Retro for nearly 10 years now. I've literally spent most of that time lurking around and reading all of the awesome stuff others had been saying. I guess I'm just a little shy, and I'm trying to not seem problematic whenever I do post.<br />
<br />
I've been a Sonic fan for about 14 years. The first Sonic game I played was the Gamecube port of Sonic Adventure 2. Not long afterwards, I got to play the Classic Genesis games via Sonic Mega Collection.<br />
<br />
As of now, I've made (or helped with,) various different Sonic mods. Mods I've made include Super Sonic Generations, Sonic Simulations (and Virtual Hedgehog Lost World,) Sonic Generations: Episode Metal (and Metal Sonic Lost World,) and a few other minor Generations mods. I've also helped out in the creation of the Sonic Unleashed Project, the Classic Sonic in Sonic 4: Episode 2 mod, and more.<br />
<br />
I tend to just lurk around here. I rarely (if ever) post anything (mostly out of shyness.)<br />
<br />
In the distant past, I was responsible for making a certain infamously overused set of Super Sonic sprites in the Sonic Battle art-style (It's been used in numerous sprite comics, flash animations (ESPECIALLY Super Mario Bros Z. Heck, this sheet was partially utilized in Fire Flower Sonic's creation) and was apparently &quot;good&quot; enough to make Backbone Entertainment think Sega made it, leading them to use it as an achievement icon in their XBLA port of Sonic 2 (despite the fact that they could have easily used sprite art from Sonic 2 itself.) I also conceptualized and created the &quot;Sonic Battle Sprite Project&quot; (A huge spriting project spanning 3 different fan communities, including this very message board. It started many years ago, and died sometime near the end of 2006 due to a falling out with the Sonic community I had at the time...)

Playing video games, modding video games, making 3D models, recording gameplay footage, drawing, making pixel art, etc.
