He made his own short fan games through the means of Klik and Play. Around this same time, he learned of Sonic Robo Blast 2, and it wasn't until 2001 that he joined the team responsible for creating Sonic Robo Blast 2, Sonic Team Junior, and became an active member of the Sonic community.

InstantSonic then started to pick up on voice acting. He did not have the proper audio equipment at the time, and used headphones and Music 2000 aka MTV Music Generator to record and put together his acting sessions.
