Quick Update

A very short post today, just informing you readers of the situation regarding my dissertation.

I'm going to push back the planned week-long project by a few days to allow me to get a bunch of academic reading done, among other things. I'm eager to get that going as I can't accurately scope my dissertation projects until it's done, and because I want to get a good feeling for the rest of the project series.

Otherwise, I've had it recommnded to me that I alter my dissertation once again. It was suggested that I plan to include a final project either at the end of the year or at the end of each semester, incorporating the mechanics of previous creations into a more comprehensive (likely casual) game.

This would slightly shift the focus of my dissertation to include some minor design, and would require me to carefully pick out tutorials to plan for the final product, but it would also demonstrate an ability to incorporate multiple mechanics into a single game coherently. It's worth considering, and I plan to run it by our coding tutor, who is my primary supporting tutor for my dissertation.

That's about all for now. Have a fine day, readers, and I'll be back with more information regarding the pre-proposal project (alliteration!) probably by Wednesday.
