Learn to build a Roguelike game in Scala
The only one I know of is SGL but I don't know how actively it's being worked on and it's still an OO flavour. I don't know of any FP-first game libs for Scala or Java.

Going into year 2 of Software Development Foundation Degree, have a particular liking for OOP and SQL, any tips, info or pointers on where to go from there?
I'm sorry, but have you ever done functional programming for a real company, like in a functional programming language like Haskell, Scala, or F#? Have you ever used Scala cats or scalaz? Have you ever learned category theory and how to apply its abstractions in software? Listen u/judethedude2106 this person hasn't gone as far down the functional programming rabbit hole as I have. Beyond learning the basics like the difference between pure and impure functions, what are closures, what higher order functions are and the most common ones like .map, .filter, and .flatmap, the immutable collections like immutable linked lists and trees, and what a Monad is and common monads like those used for futures/promises, async programming, and Option (Some or None, which is used instead of null checking), the more advanced functional programming stuff like category theory based abstractions are totally useless for real jobs and is just a giant time suck. Don't waste years on functional programming, spend at most a few months on it and no more.

Typeclasses explained in Java
If I managed to gain you interest you can take a look at one of the following libraries like cats, scalaz for scala and vavr for java which contain type class definitions and implementations for common types.

In Search of the Best Functional Programming Back-End: 2021 Update
I’ve specifically had 2 job offers internally at my company because of this language. First with Cats and Scalaz and now with ZIO, Scala has taken the best parts of Haskell, the best parts of Scala, and made it really nice to work with. You can barely see the OOP leftovers.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing scala-game-library and Scalaz you can also consider the following projects:
indigo - An FP game engine for Scala.
cats - Lightweight, modular, and extensible library for functional programming.
jMonkeyEngine - A complete 3-D game development suite written in Java.
Shapeless - Generic programming for Scala
FXGL - Java / JavaFX / Kotlin Game Library (Engine)
Monocle - Optics library for Scala
Litiengine - LITIENGINE 🕹 The pure 2D java game engine.
ScalaTest - A testing tool for Scala and Java developers
Zircon - Zircon is an extensible and user-friendly, multiplatform tile engine.
better-files - Simple, safe and intuitive Scala I/O
scalanative-graphics-bindings - OpenGL and SDL2 bindings for Scala Native
Chimney - Scala library for boilerplate-free, type-safe data transformations
