My programming experience is intermediate at best, amateur at worst.

Personality Type: INTJ --> Introverted, iNtuitive, Thinking, Judging

Goals in programming...

1) Exercise my creativity
2) Destroy the following elements of game design status quo...
      -Single values for health
      -Closed maps --Also...WHY CAN'T I CLIMB TREES???
      -Pretend-realism (never compromise promised realism)
      -Level Design: Limits number of possible maps

3) Make games designed for the intuitively inclined
4) Become an expert programmer - Make a realistic FPS that keeps developing at the same rate, regardless of the release date!
