Introduction

Hiya! I'm Hakan Alpay, aka Kimeiga...

...and I live in the suburbs of Los Angeles! I love to make small games in Unity or create graphic designs in Sketch or Inkscape (or on my phone). I enjoy going to the park with friends to play badminton or jamming to electronica, progressive house, niche rap, or anything that sounds unique. I love to experiment whether it's with a gel electrophoresis machine or elements in Android Studio.

I'm going to UCLA for Computer Science and Engineering where I will enjoy so much food! I specialize in systems design (game flow, UI/UX, language development) although I'm always interested in learning how to create new things. I have created logos and websites for friends and teachers in the past who have been quite pleased with my work.

ABOUT THIS SITE

I originally wanted to make my own website from scratch, but considering how often a portfolio website must be updated, I decided to use an online CMS like Weebly, although that introduced a number of problems. I couldn't have both a logo and text in the top left, so I actually stuck the Kimeiga logo into the "*" character of the font Karla and uploaded it as a custom font. Then I just typed "*Kimeiga" as the title. I also had issues with the padding of certain elements, especially the content container of the splash screen, which took a bit of tweaking in the Weebly Code Editor.

​The social icons at the bottom are from Font Awesome (I could have used the native Weebly ones, but there wasn't one for Github!). To mask the fact that it's a Weebly site, I have a custom URL ("kimei.ga") which forwards directly to this site. I considered using URL masking, but I was afraid that people might want to link to different content inside the site. I also managed to display a custom favicon for this site as well! All photos on this site were from my lens (or a friends :) ).
