Welcome to Kevin's Mini-World!

Since you're here, let's get informal! Let me kick this off first: For one, I really like the simple art (e.g., logo, icon).
I care about the fine details of the simple art and take the messages conveyed by each part of an artwork seriously.
As a result, I usually take charge of creating figures and tables, iterating the process after receiving feedback until everyone on the team is satisfied.

Additionally, I like to play Tetris and social deduction games (e.g., Mafia, Town of Salem)! I also like to make small games, so I brought here some games I have made for fun! Huge thanks to Daniel Shiffman, through whom I picked up JavaScript and learned to make games with the p5.js library.

Mini-Games created by Kevin Joo using p5.js

  • Mouse Click [Recommended]
  • Quick Loud Noise (e.g. Clap, Tapping on any hard object with a fingernail, etc.)
NOTE
  • If you want to use the brief loud noise as a means of changing the ball's direction, you must ALLOW the microphone usage in the beginning.

  • The map is randomly generated, so in very rare cases, you may be trapped in some confined space. In that case, start over.
  • If you bump into any of computer agents (RED BOX), you will die.
  • What you see in the upper left corner is the whole map.
