How I started programming?

Around first years at elementary school I got to simplified programming language called Baltie. Coding here consisted from moving blocks of codes, which presented basics of programming logics (cycles, variables, functions and everything important), I rate it as a simple child-friendly way to learn real coding.

• I created many games and attended many contests in Baltie. My highest success was wining an international coding finale in 2009 (Baltie, category till 15 years).

Fun

I always liked computer games but mostly making any kind of mod to these games. My favorite was Warcraft 3 map editor, where was possibilty to add scripts and completly change some game mechanics. Some of my mods on steam also got popular and was played by thousands people, you can check some at my Steam Workshopu. Unfortunaltely I do not have time to provide these mods enough support as they are getting outdated with every new version of the games.

Spoken languages

Currently I can fluently talk czech and english. I do also learn russian.
