I am a sophomore student in college rn. I love games, so I decided to make one. I want my first game to be a Metroidvania, inspired by the style of gameplay seen in the game Metroid and Castlevania. Unfortunately, I can't focus on making that with all the stress of college payments on my back. My family and I are currently finding it difficult to pay for my tuition in school. Getting this scholarship will help relieve how much I need to play this coming year. With that, I can focus on my studies and the project I'm building. The project will be my first step into my dream career of being a software engineer or a game developer. I would really love to have my dream be obtained with the help of this scholarship.
