Hello! I am Yoeri Vleer, a 22 year old student at the Graphical Lyceum Rotterdam.
When I was just 5 or 6 years old, my dad (Rest in peace dad :) ) bought me a Nintendo 8 bit.
I was hooked the moment I saw Mario jump around :)

A few weeks later some of dad's friends gave me "Zelda" and since then I'm hooked on rpg's.
I love them and will always love them.

Ever since I started to draw a lot of self made up games and new versions of old games.
I am sure Miyamoto would find a good discussion partner in me when it comes to games.
I have some issues with some of the newer games since a lot of companies dont know
how to get the best out of the current consoles while the next gen consoles are allready out.

About 6 or 7 years ago my little brother bought "Unreal" for our new and first PC.
I laughed at him for buying a stupid fps game..
a few hours later I almost bribed my brother to let me play..

and Hey!! it had an editor.. I tried it... But the Unreal editor was very unstable :(.
Since I really liked Unreal I bought UT and it came with a stable Ued.

Juuk-NL learned me the Ued basics, and the puf (later buf/Beyond Unreal Forums) thought me the rest.
I have made some maps since then, and have been "upgrading" my skills every day.
UT2007 will be around soon.. and I hope I can Impress friends, gamers,
Fellow mappers and hopefully get noticed by some of the people at game companies.

And even if I don't get noticed..
Leveldesign and thinking about new game concepts will be a hobby Ill never get bored with :)
