That up there ^ is concept art for my game Voxalia :D
Hello, I am Alex Goodwin
I am a Software Engineer with about two decades of experience
"two decades" is counting from when I started doing programming as a kid. More like one decade if you only count as an adult professional getting paid about it and stuff.
I'm particularly focused on:
- Low Level Optimization (general performance optimization, machine code, GPU shaders, ...)
- Game development (especially engine and tooling)
- Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence (especially improving education & accessibility of generative AI)
- Education (about software development and related subjects)
- User-First Software Design (personal rights, control, privacy, etc. as well as making software highly accessible to the average user)
If you want to learn about me, here's some resources:
- My GitHub profile: GitHub/mcmonkey4eva (the profile readme has a full rundown of my experience, usually kept updated)
- My "Frenetic Files" introduction post: Patreon/FreneticLLC (an article-style writeup about who I am and my background as a game developer, Nov 2024)
You can find my work and writing at:
- My GitHub profile: GitHub/mcmonkey4eva (my general experience list & links to my published open source code)
- My public projects GitHub: GitHub/mcmonkeyprojects (just my noteworthy public personal projects, since my main profile has too much on it)
- Frenetic LLC's GitHub: GitHub/FreneticLLC (has all the open source work I do with my gamedev company)
- DenizenScript GitHub: GitHub/DenizenScript (has a lot of my work related to Minecraft modding)
- The Frenetic LLC Patreon: Patreon/FreneticLLC (paid access - I post there sometimes)
- The Frenetic LLC Technical Blog: Blog.FreneticLLC (I wrote longform informative posts there sometimes)
- Honestly a bunch of random other places too I won't try to link them all, but you'll find my name popping up in a bunch of random places if you look hard enough.
My social media accounts:
- I don't really use social media much. No twitter, bluesky, instagram, whatever. My GitHub account is linked above.
- I'm on Discord though, find me in the Frenetic LLC Discord.
- I'm on linkedin too but linkedin is the worst platform on Earth.
- I have a reddit account too but not really a good way to contact me.
I am not a web designer.
That's why this website is ugly :)
