Welcome to Kevin's Mini-World! 👋

Since you're here, let's get more informal! Let me start off my sharing some small secrets about myself!

For one, I really like art! In particular, I love the simple arts (logo, icon, symbol) and their designs. As a result, I often care very much about the fine-grained details of a figure (even a pixel off bothers me!) Don't get me wrong -- I never took any art class, so I am not an expert or aware of the de facto principles of art, but I can't help it! So I commonly take charge of finalizing the figures in the projects I am involved in, iterating the process based on the team feedback until everyone is mutually satisfied.

Additionally, I am very good at the multiplayer Tetris (e.g., jstris) and social deduction games (e.g., Mafia, Town of Salem). Although it has been quite long since I stopped playing regularly, when I play them out of boredom once every couple of months, I always find myself surprised by my skills that did not go rusty!

Lastly, here's the highlight: I like to make small games! Thus, I brought here some games I have made for fun! Huge thanks to Daniel Shiffman, through whom I picked up JavaScript, learned to make games with the p5.js library, and got inspired (a lot of credits to him!) to make the selected games presented below.

• Mouse Click [Recommended]
• Quick Loud Noise (e.g. Clap, Tapping on any hard object with a fingernail, etc.) [Not Recommended Because the Computer Oftentimes Fails to Catch the Noise]

• 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.
• You can start the game by clicking anywhere in the canvas once it's loaded.

• Arrows (Up, Right, Down, Left)

• Ten treasure boxes are scattered in the map, and each box is worth 10 points. You will be competing against the computer for the treasures!
• 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.

• Mouse Drag

• Once you lead the ball to a black point, all the platform drawings you made will be erased

• Mouse Click

• If you successfully get the mole, it will turn from black to red.
• Don't forget -- You are timed!

Want to know more about me?

I love to share my knowledge with and help others, paving the way for them to gain what I learned with difficulty much easily and simply! I was formerly very closely involved in Diversity & Inclusion in Computing Education (DICE) Program at UMD, in which I mentored six CS undergraduate students by meeting with them in person on a regular basis through Peer and Alumni Mentoring Program. Similarly, I am very grateful to the professors mentioned below, who have profoundly helped me advance as a researcher.

If you have any specific questions, feel free to reach me over email, which can be found in my main homepage!
