      I heard a lot about such an award, and one of my group mates even participated! I also want to participate, maybe also in similar programs, but a little bit later. I have a lot of courses and extra courses, and I don't have enough time to focus on developing. Now I am mainly working on developing my writing skills because I have problems with it, and some grades are not good, so that's my main goal now. I use https://edubirdie.com/write-my-assignment when I need writing help, but I can't use such professional help all the time. So, I practice a lot now, and it takes up all my free time. And when I see my skills improve, I'll focus on improving my game-developing skills. It's even more complicated, but I'm sure I'll manage to succeed, and I hope, later, I'll eb able also to win an award.
