BIOGRAPHY
My name is Connor Carpenter, and I go by the handle of Shadestorm. This very enigmatic title, despite what you may assume, means nothing symbolic. If you've found some deeper meaning in my choice of an online nickname, perhaps refering to my demeanor or ambitions, then by all means continue to entertain your supposed enlightenment. However, this name was chosen after careful evolution over the years of my online life, simply because as a ten-year-old I thought it sounded cool. Now, all these years later, my creativity can not muster up anything more prolific than those primitive workings of a childish mind. It's kind of depressing actually...
Further on, I've been hooked on the enticing world of video games since my initiation to <i>Myst</i> at a young age of four, and as of since have embraced all aspects of the medium, coming so far as to my current position of being a game developer. It is my strongest and most ambitious dream to one day bring a peice of my fantasies to the world of gaming, and hopefully a large portion of it will be recorded here.
I am currently learning and mastering the daunting world of C++, with excursions into the ever-complex world of OpenGL. To satiate my desires of developing games BEFORE I finish my required 10 years of professional programming experience, I have chosen the creamy-smooth simple game development engine Game Maker, by Mark Overmars. I am also extremely proficient in MS Paint... Enjoy.
