My name is Tavi Park, and I created this website as a resource for ideas about video games. My goal is simple: to have a resource site that shares thoughts, concepts, and lessons that might help others on their own creative journey. Game development is an exciting profession, but it comes with challenges that often go unseen by those outside of it.
One of the biggest obstacles I face is not knowing how to find the right information. At times, I search for one specific answer, only to be overwhelmed by
\unrelated material that doesn’t solve the problem. This creates frustration, especially for beginners who are trying to get started without clear guidance.
Despite these challenges, I believe in the power of sharing. Sharing builds connection and trust, it encourages growth and learning, additionally it creates balance and support. I once came across this lesson, though I can’t remember exactly where I first learned it. Still, it rings true in my life and in my work.
They’re trying to make it illegal to share anything in this country but if that becomes true it will destroy trust, growth, learning, balance, support, connection and possibly our country. We can’t have college or products because the store is sharing products they want to sell. The college is sharing information they want you to listen to. The student is sharing assignments the professor wants them to hand in. The cop is sharing Miranda rights and safety to make arrests. The judge is sharing laws and solutions to give verdicts.
Even so, I wrestle with the darker side of sharing. Throughout history, especially in the Bible, many Christians were killed for speaking openly about their faith. John the Baptist, for example, was executed for speaking boldly. Elijah also faced resistance. I sometimes compare their courage to what it feels like for inexperienced developers who share their work without much protection or support.
As a inexperienced developer, I know my early projects and self care attempts can look rough. Many of us, whether we are artists, level designers, sound developers–except programmers and artists, feel like our work looks “atrocious” in the beginning. Even actors refilm scenes approximately 75 times. This is normal, but it doesn’t make it easier. Without strong backing or encouragement, it can feel isolating.
The truth is, you really have to love this profession in order to stay committed. Game development is not just about fun—it’s about patience and persistence. Much of the work is slow, tedious, and difficult. Sometimes the instructions we receive from teachers or peers are unclear, even misleading. That means developers often have to figure out everything for themselves.
But here’s the hidden reward: when you do figure something out on your own, you grow stronger, and people begin to support you. Struggle becomes experience. Confusion becomes wisdom. Every developer I admire has gone through this process, and it gives me hope to keep pushing forward.
I also believe that God plays a role in this journey. Just as beauty does not appear instantly in art, I think that God allows the beauty of a developer’s work—and even their identity—to be revealed in His time. In other words, a developer’s creativity, skill, and confidence grow when God wills it, not simply when we demand it.
Of course, there are painful realities as well. Some developers face harsh treatment or misunderstanding in society. I’ve seen friends struggle. I’ve felt resistance myself. These moments can feel unfair and discouraging, but they also remind me that the path of creation has always been a difficult one.
Game development is not always fun, even for the most passionate fans of games. But it is worth the investment. Every struggle teaches something, every setback builds endurance, and every small victory proves that the effort matters. That’s why I continue to build this site—to share ideas, to reflect on the journey, and to remind others that they are not alone in the challenges of creating. them to look beautiful.
In the world of competitive gaming, a username is often the first impression, but it is not the measure of skill, strategy, or dedication. I go by Scarlet in Valorant, and in Dota 2 and StarCraft, I have used Warfare and Scarves. These names are more than identifiers—they reflect aspects of my approach, my mindset, and the respect I bring to every match. While I have considered unifying my gaming identity under a single alias, for now, each name remains a marker of my presence in its respective arena. Regardless of what I am called, my focus is on mastery, professionalism, and the ethos I carry into every game.
Names carry weight. Warfare evokes precision, strategy, and calculated aggression—the kind of disciplined focus required to succeed in games like Dota 2 and StarCraft. In these environments, victories are earned through careful planning, resource management, and timing. Choosing this name was intentional: it signals that I approach gameplay with the seriousness of a strategist, analyzing each engagement and calculating the optimal path forward. It reminds teammates and opponents alike that while the game may be virtual, the skills required are real, and the mindset must be sharp.
Scarves, on the other hand, brings a different energy. In some ways, it is a counterbalance to the intensity of Warfare. It suggests elegance, adaptability, and style—qualities that often matter just as much in esports as brute skill. Dota 2 is a game of versatility and teamwork, where an unexpected play can turn the tide of an entire match. Scarves embodies fluidity and creativity, signaling that I am capable of adapting to changing circumstances, thinking outside the box, and contributing to the team in ways that are both subtle and decisive. It is a name that communicates confidence without arrogance, one that inspires curiosity and commands respect through the execution of skill rather than the weight of the label alone.
In Valorant, the choice of Scarlet reflects precision, focus, and individuality. In a shooter environment, milliseconds count, and every decision is critical. The name Scarlet conveys a sense of intensity and clarity of purpose—qualities that define how I approach every round. While the color red evokes passion, energy, and alertness, it also reminds me of the stakes in competitive play: every movement, every aim, every strategy must be deliberate. This name aligns with my goal of commanding attention not through hype or flamboyance, but through consistent performance and an unwavering dedication to the game.
Across these aliases, there is a throughline: respect is earned not by the name, but by the actions it represents. Whether I am Warfare, leading a team through complex strategies, Scarves, weaving creativity into every engagement, or Scarlet, demonstrating precision under pressure, the core values remain the same: professionalism, mastery, and integrity. Names are symbols, but the substance behind them is what truly matters. Gamers and spectators alike notice the patterns of thought, the consistency of execution, and the willingness to rise to challenges.
I have considered consolidating my identity under one name to create a singular persona across games. Yet, for now, each alias serves its purpose. They are reflections of different facets of my gaming philosophy and my approach to competition. I want the community to understand that whether it is Warfare, Scarves, or Scarlet, what defines me is not what is displayed on the scoreboard alone, but the respect, preparation, and strategic thinking I bring to every match.
In conclusion, the value of a name lies in the reputation and mastery it represents. My usernames are more than labels—they are manifestations of my commitment to excellence in esports. Regardless of which alias I use in a given moment, my goal is to command respect through action, adaptability, and performance. Names like Warfare, Scarves, and Scarlet are entry points, but it is the dedication behind them that earns lasting recognition. In gaming, as in life, substance outweighs style, and skill earns respect far beyond the letters of a username.
