ABOUT ME

Hello there, I am Phylixius.

My journey in tech started in 2018 with learning Luau. I later explored Blender and Unreal Engine 5. I discovered Roblox and its game engine Roblox Studio, leading to the creation of my YouTube channel with around 1.5k subscribers. For video editing, I used Premiere Pro, After Effects for visual effects, and Adobe Photoshop and Photopea for thumbnails. I also used Adobe Audition for sound editing and FL Studio for creating music.

I am proficient in Discord, creating and managing Servers, Bots/Applications, and Webhooks. My Python knowledge is extensive, having developed various useful projects. I can build both dynamic and static websites using NodeJs with ExpressJs and Python. For hosting, I use Render, Netlify, Ngnix, Cloudflare Workers, and my server for the Back-end, with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the front end on Cloudflare Pages, Github Pages, Vercel, and Apache. I initially used JSON as a database before switching to Firebase. I also have experience with Infinity Free, Freehosting.com, and WordPress.

My interest in cybersecurity has led me to become proficient with Ubuntu, Tails, Kali Linux, Parrot OS, and The Onion Router Project. I have created exploits using Python, C#, and C++, as well as malware with Metasploit and other tools. I can pretty much read every programming language as they all have common keywords and structure. I also came across some interesting, effective OSINT resources along with several Data breach databases, dark web forums, services, and other cybersecurity-related ends. After that, I honed my skills in website penetration testing, mastering techniques such as XSS, LDAP and SQL injections, CSRF, creating phishing websites, session hijacking, XXE, and more. In the real world, I have learned Wi-Fi spoofing, social engineering, DNS spoofing, using Wireshark, and understanding symmetric and asymmetric cryptography, including RSA, AES, ECC, SHA, MD5, and TLS/SSL.

My interests have also led me to system and network administration, where I completed a one-year comprehensive course on Windows Server. I learned about Domain Controllers, DNS servers, Active Directory, DHCP servers, Web Server IIS, and more. Additionally, I am skilled in using Virtual Machines such as VMWare, Virtual Box, Hyper -V and Windows Sandbox.

MY STORY

I've been an Information and Communication Technology enthusiast from the day I was born. My first computer was a Windows machine which I have always been amazed by. Every time I started it up, I kept discovering new subjects and abilities, and of course, playing games on it.

When I first played the game Roblox (I was young), I was always wondering where these games came from. Did Roblox make them? Did they hire other companies? Is it user-generated? I quickly discovered how they were made and wanted to make my own game, not to earn money or gain players, but just to see how it works and what you can do with it. I have always been curious, ambitious, and eager to learn which led me to the knowledge I've gained so far. So I was exploring around. Pulling free models from the toolbox, watching tutorials, making terrain, and everything available. But I never actually made anything myself. Until I saw and opened the "Script" in the add menu. I searched it up and a whole new world was just discovered. "Programming". I went to the free models and tried to read other made scripts, watch YouTube tutorials, and try to puzzle. I searched up some words on Google and found their documentation and forum where you can ask questions regarding the whole Roblox platform, which I highly made use of. I made some basic scripts and enjoyed it. I made several games and got hired for military groups, crappy simulators, tycoons etcetera. I never actually asked for money, I just find it fun to make games. Then, suddenly, on a day when I was playing Plaza Connect, a random dude came to me and asked me if I could script something for him. I was confused because how could he know that I was a programmer? He said he would pay me. He wanted me to make a dialogue interaction where if you chat with an NPC and chat back, another NPC will spawn. I was excited and started immediately. I searched it up, followed the documentation, made the game, and sent it to him. He said it was brilliant and paid me immediately. After that time, I became an official developer. I like playing the games as well as making the games. I had awesome classmates and a cousin who also liked playing Roblox and my games together. I was addicted to it, but also watching it.

When you are boring yourself or just want a visual explanation of something, it always comes down to the same thing. YouTube. I looked up to the content creators. And just like the Roblox games, I wanted to make my own. I made a channel, recorded my first video, stole a thumbnail, and hit that upload button. Ready and waiting for the 1 million views. But... that didn't work out. As expected. I didn't give up yet and tried it again, this time I only gained 3 views, which were me, my mother, and my cousin which I told I would be famous the next day. I didn't understand how all these other YouTubers did it. I watched some videos on how to gain more views and statistics and got some good tips from the channels VidIq, Marcus Jones, and Finzar where it came down that I had to edit my videos and thumbnails. That brought me to Premiere Pro, After Effects, Adobe Photoshop, and the free version, Photopea. Just like Programming, I searched up how to do this, how to make that, etcetera. After some years of coming back and giving up, I was well experienced. Then one of my videos blew up and got almost 400k views, I quickly gained a YouTube partnership and made money. But making these videos takes way too much time for me and I don't want to make use of other video editors, how can I automate this?

I know there could be a workaround. I don't want to do this all manually, I just don't have the time and motivation for it. So again, I searched it up and Python was the first result. I possess a basic programming language so I quickly learned all the things. I find it a much better language as you can use this elsewhere than only games, you can use this for everything. I made a complex program with over hundreds lines of code. I used the YouTube API, the browser inputs, scheduling, etcetera. It was a real success. I know you could do a lot more with this, and made a cheat/macro for a Harry Potter spell-fighting game, a text hider in image files, projects my friends needed, and other stuff. After that, I returned to Roblox. My current interest always varies. When I was back at playing games I wanted to do something creative, design something. I knew what I wanted, I wanted to make something like I5K did.

At this time, I got a new computer with very good specifications. Just like always, I searched things up, came across Blender, installed it, and downloaded some models. My first results were terrible, and I was bad at making things realistic. Even with the kits I downloaded for Photoshop. So I searched further. And then I found UE5, the beauty of realism. It cost me 30GBs of storage. I made some projects, learned how to make realistic designs, and got the results.

I showed this to a couple of people and got some expensive commissions. I stopped quickly with this phase. This was more in the time I was listening to music. You probably know what's gonna happen next.

Right now, I thought this was gonna be easy. I mean, if you listen to music all the time and even sing improvements in your head, this should be a giveaway. I installed the programs, did what I always did, and started making music. At first, it sounded good. But the next day I came back and listened to it, it sounded terrible. Sometimes I had times where I was productive, but I never had it when I was behind my monitor. My biggest problem was making the sound that was in my head. I'm critical when it comes to music, so it was hard for me. I made some good songs and bad ones, it depends on what you expect. After a while, I stopped. I always change projects from time to time. Sometimes I do this, and other times, I do that. After that, a school year passed and I got a new interesting friend who had a website. Here we go again.

I asked how he made it. He explained to me the whole process and how he did it. He had his server with full stack development. He just port-forwarded his router to his website, which resulted in us having to go to his IP to visit his website, which was quite funny. He gave me his back-end which I studied and improved. I also followed some courses online for NodeJs with ExpressJs, HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. I did a whole design with colors that changed every time you refresh the page with a secret color, a line/bar that glides from corners, a moving background according to your mouse with a fading effect, a light that follows your mouse with a smooth delay, hover effects, and other animations. You could make an account, visit cool websites, play games, and more. You needed to do a whole secret puzzle to unlock your account to access more things. My classmates loved it and even the teachers made an account.

I hosted it on a local server as well but behind a CloudFlared reverse proxy tunnel. So my IP wasn't leaked. After that, my father was worried that it was gonna become a popular and heavy website and began to worry about our privacy. I just searched days after VPS services and tried multiple out. For other sites I made, I went for static websites as I didn't have to care about a server or back-end, which I searched up as well. In this phase, I've come across some cybersecurity terms such as cryptography, protocols, and more, which is a perfect segway to the next phase.

If I look at what I've learned now, ICT is just a big puzzle, it's all connected. There wasn't a reason why I switched to this new topic, I just found it interesting. I like tinkering with things and then finding new things out. It's also mostly in the news when there's a new data breach or when a company gets infected with ransomware. I searched up some terms that people act like or think they know, such as HTTPS, hacking, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, and a bunch of other topics that I must think of day to day. It was a bit confusing as when you search for an unknown term, you get an explanation with more unknown terms, kind of like a rabbit hole. I found it interesting and went deeper and deeper. Until I found a topic of how hacking/exploiting works, that was for me the cherry on the top. I switched to hacking and wanted to access the "Dark Web". To understand how you need to hack things, you first need to understand how they work, and even further, understand the source code better than the makers. But that is not always needed, as I started as a script kiddie and used already publicly made exploits. I installed and tried multiple hacker machines and tested some exploits. I thought, wow, this is powerful. But remember, with great power comes great responsibility. I went from website to software penetration testing and followed some good online courses. You could even get paid to hack other people's and companies' devices for money, which is called, an ethical hacker or a blue hat hacker. It was cool and even hacked my dad's computer. And then I realized that nothing is safe. I was more aware of my privacy, which is a perfect reason to find out what the dark web is. So, in my experience, the "dark web" is just a website that has a malicious or illegal intents, such as hiring hackers or hitmen, buying drugs/weapons/children/organs, seeing studies from illegal experiments, hidden newspapers and blogs, CP, forums/databases, and more. It was weird seeing all these things publicly available. Most dark websites are on deep websites, which just means you can't visit them with your normal browser like Chrome/Edge/Opera/Firefox/etc but have to use another secure private browser like Tor. While searching for all these things, I also found some quality Open Source Intelligence such as finding a person by picture, finding publicly accessible cameras and other devices, finding the person with an address from a phone number, and more. After that, I made multiple malware and exploits along using other tools and specializing further in advanced cybersecurity.

I was following industrial electricity in school and didn't like it at all. I liked the theory, but not the practical. During these years I've seen that I was more interested in computers. So I changed schools. I could choose between a variation of ICT subjects but have chosen the topic that I am talking about right now. I didn't choose any of the others because I already have seen them and don't want to repeat them from the beginning. Not because I think I already know everything about it, but because I will be demotivated and called a nerd. I also thought that this topic is more of a center of ICT where you need from everything a good base. I finally learned the thing that I wanted to learn. I did the year, and it was awesome. I not only learned everything from Windows Server but also made friends with the same interests.

That was it. Thank you for reading. If you have any questions you can always contact me so I can explain the details.

SAMPLES

Here are listed my best examples that I want to share with the public.

The Grand Clone Army used to have over 100k members but changed its subject multiple times.

XON Studios is a Tower of Hell fan-made production with 66k members at the time of writing this.

Fun Games Creations is a group with almost 10k members at the time writing this. They paid well and it was fun to work with.

I17 Development Hub is a Half-Life 2 fan-made project with some more known people, good communication, and management.

A&D Productions is the group I and my cousin own.

Gods of Obby is an obby/parkour game programmed by me and built by my cousin.

ZeptorVasion is a Zombie Rush-inspired variant that I programmed, built, and UI designed. And built by my cousin.

Roblox But You Are Popular was a project that simulates fake fans that follow you and spam fan messages.

Choose Your Ability is a superpower project where you choose between 3 elements and fight.

RoFacility SCP-A is an SCP-inspired variant.

Find-It is a game where you need to escape a facility by finding and doing tasks. But every task also has a dark side.

Survive The Train is a comedy game where you need to try to get to the other side with some unexpected train parkour.

City of Souls is a Downtown-RP-inspired variant made by me and my cousin.

Fight with Might is the first "successful" game that I played with my friends, also a Zombie Rush variant.

Warfare 17 is an unfinished Half-life 2-inspired variant but more focused on combat. The concept was that you can choose 3 teams. Resistance: gain special abilities like healing or leading, other weapons, and vehicle hijacking. Combine: gain access to vehicles like helicopters, APCs, devices like manhaks, scanners, and more, and earn other weapons. XEN: become head crabs, zombies, antlions, and more.

Guns of Blood is a "gore" game with my first attempt at a real bullet gun system.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I can program you whole Roblox games, python scripts, and static websites.

I can make almost everything as long as it doesn't come to these anime effects or math-heavy algorithms. Some examples are an advanced TPS (Third Person Shooter) gun system with real bullets fully optimized, Round systems, menus, complex NPCs, and more.

I live in Belgium so my timezone is CEST/GMT+1. The time for me currently is this.

I can work almost every day throughout the week but it depends. However, you can contact me 24/7.

You might not like the answer and heard it a lot, but it depends on the task. There isn't a "one price for all" thing. But I can give you a good representation. The lowest I generally go is 10 euros for a task that takes less than an hour, and 100 euros that takes two days. It also depends on the complexity, a one-hour task can cost more than usual.

I only accept euros through PayPal per task. If you can not pay with real money then I do accept Robux but 3 times more. I do not accept percentages.

The reason is that I can't do anything with Robux. It's just a virtual currency that you can only do one thing with, kinda like a gift card for Walmart. I am not a child anymore and have a life in the real world. I am trying to make this a semi-job.

So when you contact me, I will reply ASAP and maybe ask you some questions. If you need a script, please be as clear as possible and explain every detail. I do not add things up that I don't think you asked/needed. We will negotiate the price beforehand and once everything is ready I start on the project. I am not a GUI designer nor a builder which means I don't make them. If I am missing elements then I add them myself but don't expect great results then.
