Hola! 

Thank you for taking the time to know more about me. Given below is a list of anything and everything I have taken up, dabbled in, and dived into. I hope you find it interesting and worthwhile.

Games developed: 

2012 - First game using GameMaker (Unfortunately I do not have the game file; it seems to have been lost in the ebbs and flows of time.)

2014 - Repercussions - A Visual Novel


2020 - Rewind 2020, Trapped

Writings on games: 

I like to express my thoughts and opinions on the games I play and occasionally write about these if I find I have enough to write about.

DIY Projects:

Though there are many DIY craft projects I have taken up, these are the ones that stand out from the others, hence finding a mention here:


A potion book used to teach Potions at Hogwarts and featured in the movie Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Harry Potter Crafts #1: Advanced Potion Making by Libatius Borage (Hogwarts Potionbook)

By
While my mates and colleagues are all doing something or the other to help them get a job three years from now (or even before that, depending on the person concerned) (FYI, I'm in the first year of my Bachelor's programme as I write this post), I have been whiling my time away doing unproductive work (which effectively means that I'm doing nothing). They are building their skill sets so their resume gets laden with attractive features while I am still figuring out how to make a resume. So, these holidays, the least I could do was to complete my unfinished works if I was not going to start anything new. One of these works was a handwritten manuscript of Hogwarts potion-book "Advanced Potion Making" which Harry and friends use in their sixth year of schooling. I was always fascinated with the potions depicted in the books and movies and as a child, I used to pray for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to be real. Of course, I eventually realised that...

My Thoughts on Raji: An Ancient Epic [PC Version]

By
Raji: An Ancient Epic. Though the game has ‘Epic’ in the title, and I bought it off the 'Epic' Games store, it’s not that epic in terms of length. I finished it in 6 hours, and I did die a bunch of times in the meanwhile. Perhaps they just wanted to appease the guys behind the game engine that Raji was developed in. just a wild guess. BUT…! Raji is Beautiful. Period. I can’t say this enough. Being beautiful is this game’s selling point. Every single area of every single level is crafted with love, packed with care, and gifted to the player with a grateful smile. Raji almost shows its environments off, and quite rightfully so. It knows it’s beautiful and is proud of it. It flaunts its visual splendour and manages to divert all attention from the more ordinary elements. Now I admit here, being an Indian perhaps allowed me to connect with the game better, since it borrows heavily from Hindu mythology, and therefore had more of an impact on me. But then, there have been other...

My Thoughts on the PC games Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Parts 1 & 2 (a comparison)

By
 [Originally written on 22nd Sep 2019] I just finished playing HP Deathly Hallows Part 2, having completed the part 1 yesterday.   When I started Part 1, I was straightaway disappointed because the game threw a few missions at me that felt less related to the story and more like they were included just to make it lengthier. Then there was repetition – a fair amount of it. For instance, Harry had to rescue a bunch of muggle-borns from the snatchers. This involved fighting the enemy and liberating the muggle-borns from the evil enchantments. The same theme is repeated in various locations, giving the developers some sort of reprieve whilst increasing the game length. They succeeded, although sacrificing the game’s excitement. It started off quite well, though, with Bill and Fleur’s wedding, Shaftesbury Avenue and then to Grimmauld Place. Up until then it was fairly enjoyable, but as I progressed, I began facing issues. To begin with there were these side missions to be com...
