My name is Yuri Propp Mendes, I'm 21 years old and I'm passionate about Game Design and Narrative Design. I have some experience in the world of games, as I have been passionate about games since I was little. I started with the PS2 until the current generation.
I have a very diverse creativity and I have hyperfocus. I find it easy to create worlds and characters. I learned English beyond the classroom, as I am a fan of the RPG and JRPG genre. Anyone who knows knows how much text they have and at the time of the PS2 to the PS3, not every game had translation. I sat in front of the TV with a dictionary next to me so that when there was a word I didn't know, I was ready to look it up.
" Life took so many things away from me... It took away my family, it took away friends, it took away my home... Everything was lost in one night but soon things got better, I gained a new family, I met new friends and I had a new home... I there was a "World" again."
"But everything was taken from me again, everything I built was destroyed piece by piece, crumb by crumb, ashes by ashes..."
"Even though all this happened to me, I... got up again and started building everything again, because that's living"
"It doesn't matter if life knocks you down, it doesn't matter if it takes everything from you, get up! Get up! Because those who are gone wouldn't want to see you on the ground. Live for them, make memories for them. Because that's Living, Living is difficult but it is also so beautiful.

Goals to be achieved
"To become one of the greatest, great commitment and knowledge is necessary"
01
Finish Digital Games College
I started college in August 2022 and I'm about to finish it (2024), I had good classes and bad classes but I'll never forget the people I met. I will probably take other Digital Games and Game Designer colleges in the future.
02
English course
Currently (2024) I am at an advanced level in English. But I can only communicate in English mentally with others because when I speak... the words completely escape my mouth. BUT I understand English completely
03
Go to Film College
Since I was little, I've always been able to imagine in my head what the scene I'm writing would be like, I can imagine the right tone of the music, the movements. I've always called it "Director's Vision". I believe that a film or audio visual college can help me a lot in creating my games.
04
Working on the Persona series
Since playing Persona 3 Fes on Ps2 in 2010, I have completely fallen in love with the series. She is a great inspiration to me and one day my name will be in the credits of the series. Mark my words!
