I'm most | I'm most recently known for my work in the [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]] scene, including a documentary called ''Elevated: The Development Story of Super Smash Bros. Melee'', a collection of high-resolution assets called Melee HD Asset Library, and a website for new Melee players, blippi.gg. | ||
I was previously known for my leadership and initiation of [[Gameplay_modification#Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl|Brawl modifications]] for [[Project M]] including [[Gameplay_modification#Legacy_TE|Legacy TE]] and the Cosmetic Standardization Project. I have since retired from Brawl modding, and the Legacy projects are no longer in development. | |||

''Elevated: The Development Story of Super Smash Bros. Melee'' is a documentary I created about Melee's development, taking bits and pieces from interviews, columns, and online articles and stitching them together in as coherent of an account as I could. I also documented anything I could related to unused content and some of the earliest tournaments for the game. The video was created, researched, edited, voiced, and produced by me. | |||
Some of the accolades its received have included praise from Smash player and Twitch streamer [[Smasher:Ludwig|Ludwig]], <ref> "Ludwig watches Elevated documentary." https://clips.twitch.tv/MiniatureTenuousSwallowMrDestructoid-ycJrkmfMiqbidoQu</ref> TO and founder of VGBootCamp [[Smasher:GimR|GimR]], <ref> "GimR watches Elevated documentary." https://twitter.com/VGBC_GimR/status/1388946120198479872</ref> and Melee documentary creator [[Smasher:Samox|Samox]] who stated he considered ''Elevated'' as the unofficial prequel to his [[The_Smash_Brothers|The Smash Brothers]] documentary. <ref> "Samox considers the Elevated documentary to be the unofficial prequel to The Smash Brothers." https://twitter.com/_samox_/status/1388933287448621061</ref> | |||
The entire documentary can be viewed on YouTube here: | |||

My ''"What if...?"'' series of videos takes a look at what Melee might may have looked like under alternative conditions. For example, "what if James Bond was in Melee?" They are concept trailers often created from modifications of Brawl or Melee itself, crafted to showcase what Melee may look like on another timeline. | |||
For example, here's a video on [[Slippy]], which is partially a silly reference to [[Smasher:MagicScrumpy|MagicScrumpy]]'s "Ultimate Spacie" video, and is a collaboration with B&D Games: | |||

One fateful day, my brother and I sold our NES and games to purchase a [[Nintendo 64]]. Super Smash Bros. was the fourth game we purchased.

The hype for Super Smash Bros. Brawl was almost too much for me. At E3 2006, I could barely contain my excitement. Checking the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] website was part my daily routine for a long time until March 9th, 2008 when I was able to purchase the game during the midnight release. | The hype for Super Smash Bros.
