CZGCZG is one of the more prominent modder and level designers of the Quake modding scenes, active in the late 90s, up to 2021. He earned his fame for some of the most popular maps and campaigns in the community, including Honey, Disconcerting Unease, Insomnia, Terra, Rubicon2, Aerospace Vitriol and Witch house Mix Tape.
Some of his maps have been re-released in the Quake: Remastered re-release of 2019 with interviews on the Bethesda.net website.
"I remember purchasing an unofficial expansion pack that came with an editor. It was an incredibly obtuse piece of software with practically no documentation and I didn’t have any internet back then. I didn’t manage to create anything worthwhile using that but eventually, I downloaded WorldCraft shareware at school and managed to bring it back home on some floppy discs. A bit later I was introduced to IRC, joined some Quake channels, and spent most of my late teens talking about Quake and mapping with a bunch of weird but wonderful people."
