About Me

My name is Jack, but I’m better known as Jack of Black Phoenix. You may (or may not) be familiar with my work as a hobbyist modder, level designer, game developer, music composer, audio engineer, content creator, writer, web designer or else.

I’m passionate about game development, with primary focus on first person shooter genre. It all began around 2003 when personal interest in uncovering the inner workings of gaming industry led me to dabble with level design for Half-Life and Counter-Strike, followed by venture into the a larger modding scene few years later. In that process, I’ve gained experience with GoldSrc, Source, idTech and CryEngine/Dunia technologies, through creating custom content for various titles.

Over the years I’ve also gained some following through my work in music editing, by mix/mastering many game and movie soundtracks which lacked proper official album releases. Since 2022 I’m also involved in composing original music.

My other hobbies include virtual photography, video editing, web design, and being a D&D nerd aswell as cheese lover, a cappuccino enthusiast and all-around drain on society.
