I've started playing the Marathon series back in the year 2008 or 2009 when I researched on Bungie's history games in the past. I may have seen the game before when I was very young or little when the Macintosh was available. I wasn't familiar with the name, but the graphics and game-play was eerily familiar. 
Anywho, I frequently play games made out of the Open Source Aleph one engine: Whether Fan-Made or not, Mostly the Marathon Trilogy (I favor Marathon 1 and Marathon 2 for the story, I play Marathon Infinity for Multiplayer). And recently I started to think: "if I can make games out of this wonderful Open Source Engine?" It is possible for me, and I believe that great games that can define gaming history doesn't require huge resources or "AAA" quality-types. It simply requires a small "Open Software" with almost no programming skills to do it.
I have a huge desire to make a video game one day, and Aleph-One may be possibly my first milestone.
I am familiar with using the "Weland" map editor, and I have knowlege on using 3d modeling software. I mostly prefer Blender as my software of choice because it is easier for me to model things in 3d.
Using Blender, I am capable of:
Modeling objects, Characters (Whether humanoid or alien), Animating Sequences, Sound, Textures(Somewhat), video rendering, and more. (Python Scripting not included)
My goal, is to make a great Marathon Scenario, so good that it could be possibly considered CANON (whether any of you argue it should be Official or Unofficial) while enjoying a lot of other video games including Marathon, Halo, or future BUNGIE games (Yay for the new DESTINY game!).
I understand that it can take time and most importantly, patience.
I am not going to guarantee that I am going to do my best, but what really matters to me is this: "I don't try, but I just do it!"
Peace. Over and out. -Corruptinator 01/09/13 2:07 A.M.
