iQuest #1: The B̶e̶g̶i̶n̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ Continuation

Hey, I'm David, a high school senior and an iQuest student.

My passion is to design video games, and it's not just because I enjoy playing them. I like everything about creating them. Programming game logic and editors; writing stories and creating characters; using a game engine; sculpting, rigging and texturing models; animation, acting, music production... you name it. I love everything about it.

My plan is to graduate high school, get a job and start saving funds, move out with my cousin and a close friend, attend college at DVC and then transfer to a 4 year college or university to study game design; ideally USC. This year I will also continue to increase my skills and start building up a portfolio and resume.

I am also working on a game for the PC, and I will continue to do that this year. I've always been a bit ambitious, so it's a pretty big project. I have a small group of indie devs I'm working with, and I hope to create an alpha build by the end of next summer. Next I'll see if I can get (more) funds through kickstarter, and finish it by the time I graduate from college. I have high hopes for iQuest helping me do that!
