About Jacob Cosmoretro Leroux

Since the age of 4, I\'ve been playing games (starting with Mario3 on NES), and then, since the age of 13, I\'ve known my dream job was to be a game designer and creator, which I happily am now and have as a career going through and completing degree programs from Full Sail University and working diligently on my own games for decades, as well, as we all go through our version of life. You can ask me anything. I have had hardships many times in my past but never let it affect me negatively and always strived and still strive for positivity, growth, inspiration, friendship, and creation to make the best games possible for others to love and enjoy with others, too. We are always learning, every day! Also, every day, let\'s make sure we are doing our passion and love what we do! Mini goals, collectively, help with major goals! Organization, with passion and purpose, with energy, collectively, are great for success and truth to who you are and what we do! Ultimately, to do what I love, continue making games, meet other cool people, perhaps, in the future, start a family, are meaningful attributes on my journey of game creation!Other than being a game designer, creator, collector, and passion project lover!I also love:* My best friends and family and my awesome cat, Koopa!* Hiking (specially in my area)* Challenge Runs or Challenging Gaming Tasks (like speedrunning but more about the challenges)* Making Board or Card games (if applicable - rare, nowadays)* Finding Good YouTube videos and learning or just for entertainment like comedy or Truth Videos* Creating Gaming Charity Events (w/ my fellow Critical Hit Community admins and members)* Speedrunning and Streaming (on Twitch as CosmoRetro) while making videos for my YouTube w/* Podcasting with one of my best friends - Joe Mosier - A Game Tester, Father, and Comedian.* Creating Music (mainly with my bass guitar, keyboard, and drum tracks) and sometimes go into games!* Being mainly a positive person! w/ truth to it, though! You must have logic with the feeling of being positive, otherwise it is fake happiness.
