Sure. Also, I want to suggest you joining jams. It is an excellent opportunity to experiment with concepts and learn different skills. You can even win prizes there. For example, this https://angrysmile.itch.io/ is a group that creates jams with awards regularly. I make videos for this jam typically, too.
Additionally, I am hosting a game jam that is going to happen at the end of September. You will be able to win some money to buy a pizza for yourself there.
I hope you join us. The link is here:
