Hello! The name I often go by online is Wind Delcarlo, which I've used for over a year as a writing alias and character name. Originally, I used the name WindMasterArceus, but since the fact that I was using Arceus as a name blew right by most people, who generally called me Wind, I shifted it around and made a last name for myself.
I play Magic: the Gathering a whole lot, and work on designing cards using another program. Alongside a set I'm making, I'm writing a novel using my character, Wind Delcarlo. He's my protagonist; he is an electrokinetic planeswalker, so he wields the power of electricity. Because I love the story/world so much, I've been designing a world for SMBX to portray events on the world, called Volaria.
I got into SMBX originally when I watched a youtube channel called WiiRikeToPray do a LP of it. It seemed amazing, so I tried it myself. After loading up the first screen it was obvious there was a level designer, so I decided I'd play a bit through the game and work on designing levels after.
I love the Super Mario World tilesets in SMBX. I find myself using Grass, Cave, Castle, and Lava textures most often in levels, although now I'm working on trying to find a suitable volcanic texture, sort of like the second half of NSMB's World 8. My favorite color is blue, so I tried once to take it into my hands to recolor Mario so his main colors were blue and cyan. I eventually got bored of trying to do that, though. Although I try to retexture things, it doesn't actually work out very much, as I don't have too much skill in artwork.
Oh, yes, I can't believe I forgot, but I have difficulties making friends a lot of the time, so I'll probably be on quite often.
