Hey, I'm TG!

Primarily, I'm a SRB2Kart mapper who specializes in making track layouts that are fun to fly through - even if they aren't the most visually out-of-the-park maps you've ever seen.

My design philosophy is to plan out interesting set pieces for a track on paper, connect them all, then tie them together with a theme.

Basically, if a game I love has a map editor, I will learn to use it. This started out with Unreal Tournament 99 and Half-Life 1, then bled into Counter-Strike: Source and Halo 3 in the mid-late 2000s.

With my previous experience with making maps, I learned how to map with the Doom engine and eventually released my first Kart map, Coastal Temple, which I was honoured to have included in the game's community cup. However, I had placed an unreasonable amount of stress on myself that """I had to""" live up to my new map making reputation, and given that my mental state in 2019 was not in a great place, I was really hard on myself while making Sunset Canyon Zone which led to me taking a hiatus from Kart.

It took over 2 years before I had the itch to return to Kart mapping in 2021, and while I can't say I'll be here forever, I'll always enjoy my stay with this awesome community whenever I'm active in it.

Other things about me include being a former a high-placing Lethal League 1 tournament player from 2015-2016, I love Magic: The Gathering cube drafts, and I mess around with composing and producing music.
