I moved and I found my childhood in a box (Warning: lots of pictures)

Did your dream of becomeing a game designer come true?

*btw you where a badass then.

Thanks. I never really had the idea to become a game designer, which is funny considering I made all these drawings. I had a pretty two-dimensional mind as a kid though. I figured designing games was something you could do if you lived in Japan.

Silly me.

I went on to study architecture instead.

Would say that even tho the field is different from Video games you clearly had grown up designing buildings and temples which no Architect could ever hope to build in their lifetime, some of those map drawings are incredible.

I spent quite a while looking at Toads freeway btw trying to figure out why it was called "DADs highway, was thinking was your father involved in making that, didn't see the styalized T doh!

Absolutely fantastic to read over them tho both the fantastically preserved drawings and sketches along with the amazing thought process that went along with them, thank you for sharing what I would imagine is probably done by a lot of kids (on a less fantastic scale) and just put to the side as they either grow up or get thrown away/lost by parents to be lost forever. Great to see a leap back to your childhood preserved so well.
