THE TIM CINEMATIC UNIVERSE
A detailed list of all the people who inspire me the most :)
Occupation: Brother
What better way to take on a single player experience (life) than with a player two? Dan and I have been fortunate to get along really well throughout our lives. Keep your family close. I would have no story without Dan.
Occupation: Father
The #1 reason I work as hard as I do. Taught me far too much to list. An old friend of mine called me 'Boruto' because of pops, and that's pretty funny, context considered.
Occupation: Mother
Mom influenced most of my intelligence and ability to process emotions. A brilliant woman with a passion for the sciences. Mom can tell you 100 different things about every chemical in that makeup or product that you've been using. She's also responsible for all of my dope haircuts, which ALWAYS deserved more credit than received.
Occupation: Small White Dog
Favorite Work: Deltarune
Favorite Song: Attack of the Killer Queen
you know.
Occupation: Artist / Author
Favorite Work: Scott Pilgrim
Scott Pilgrim is kind of like the bible and it weirdly parallels my own life in a lot of funny ways. SP is the fiction that inspires me most as a writer.
Occupation: Game Developer
Favorite Work: Mother 3
Mother 3 is my favorite game of all time. The Mother franchise as a whole was everything to me growing up.
Occupation: Author / Mangaka
Favorite Work: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
The way Araki draws his peculiar androgynously posed characters has always been a huge, huge inspiration to me.
Occupation: Game Designer / Artist
Favorite Work: The Binding of Isaac
The Binding of Isaac is my most played video game of all time, and it gave me an obsession with demons that have cool horns. I think a lot of that is pretty clear in my work, or, at least, it will be.
Occupation: Author / Mangaka
Favorite Work: Chainsaw Man
Chainsaw Man is my favorite manga and it's not even close. Okay, that ending wasn't that bad, relax. Fujimoto's peak moments are THE peak moment.
Occupation: Musician
Favorite Work: A Flair for the Dramatic
Favorite Song: Props & Mayhem
Pierce the Veil is my favorite band (it was Alice in Chains for the longest time). A Flair for the Dramatic is my second favorite album of all time. Their entire discography is loaded.
Occupation: Musician
Favorite Work: Luv is Rage 2
Favorite Song: LUV SCARS K.0 1600
Listening to Luv is Rage 2 completely changed me + acted as my segue deeper into the genre. I was pretty much instantly enamored by the sound design + engineering. I feel like Uzi has the greatest unreleased catalog in all of music.
Occupation: Musician
Favorite Work: The Ghost~Pop Tape
Favorite Song: KELTEC!
He has such an iconic sound and I anticipate every single thing that this guy does; he's such a brilliant artist. The AMHAC era was one of my favorite times to be a music fan. Another self-produced musician I look up to.
Occupation: Musician
Favorite Work: IGOR
Favorite Song: BEST INTEREST
From a creative standpoint of just doing what you want to do "because you can" do it, Tyler is my biggest inspiration. IGOR is my favorite album of all time and the Song "BEST INTEREST," reminds me of the happiest points of my life.
Occupation: NBA Player
Kevin Durant is my favorite NBA player. I have watched his highlight reels 100 times over and have been studying his game for years on end.
Occupation: Game Developer
Favorite Work: Cave Story
Cave Story is an awesome game, and, if you know me at all, I look up to solo devs like they are the second coming of Jesus. Amaya in particular, with time taken into account, did an incredible job and inspires me a lot. Cave Story is fantastic!
Occupation: NBA Player
The true standard of greatness. Bron was such a huge part of my childhood, and watching him take down the 2016 Warriors still chokes me up. I watched that entire series live, and it was around the time I started REALLY getting into basketball. #GOAT
Occupation: Streamer / Musician
Favorite Song: Ozymandias
Vinny has always been my favorite streamer, for well over ten years now. We both hail from the same part of New York; and a large part of my humor originates from his streams. I have his streams on all the time, the full-sauce channel has been my most watched YouTube channel for as long as I could remember!
Occupation: Game Developer
Favorite Work: Stardew Valley
Favorite Song: Fall (The Smell of Mushroom)
A solo-dev who graduated college as another self-proclaimed "regular-guy" ... just like... ME! To be able to deliver a powerhouse product like Stardew Valley is such an impressive feat... It's still one of my favorite games to this day!
