Third Project Update: Discontinuation

Some unfortunate news today, readers.

Due to time constraints and issues with the tutorial in question, I've decided to discontinue the Third Project, including both the Tutorial and Conversion Phases. This is partly due to the fact that the tutorial, while initially easier to follow than anticipated due to the game code using Unity Script rather than Java Script in most places, also contained heavy use of Unity Packages including one which required purchase (for more money than I had at the time).

Having difficulties working around this problem, as well as the Christmas delays on work, and the fast-approaching deadline of the more-important Final Project of this semester, due on the 16th of January, less than two weeks from today, I have reluctantly concluded that simply ending the Third Project for now would be best for the dissertation as a whole.

Even with the Third Project being closed, I'm uncertain if I will be able to complete the Final Project in time, while having it as advanced as I had originally hoped. I will do my best, but I may have to push the deadline back by another week or two depending on my progress. This is especially likely as I will also be trying to keep up with other projects during the same time.



I can only offer my deepest apologies for all of this. Clearly, I grossly over-estimated my working ability, particularly during the Christmas break.

I hope that my next update will be with happier news regarding my dissertation.

Until then, readers, have a fine day.
