Project update 19th may 2010

So far I have created my story board, created my graphics, and found some suitable music for my game. I have started creating my data dictionary and hope to be finished by the end of the day.

This is how my gantt chart looks at the moment. It shows that i am currently working to schedule.

Progress update 13 may 2010

I have now finished my initial investigation, I decided to merge my project specification and requirements specification into one document and task. My project spec is now complete, so I have made the task 100% complete and I am ahead of schedule. I will now start creating my graphics and completing my storyboard.

Updating my Gantt chart

I have updated my Gannt chart to show the different stages of the project life cycle.
So far on this course I have learned why project fail and the different life cycles I could use in my project

Progress Update

Since my last blog post I have created a Gantt chart that I will use to help me manage my project.

I have created a report telling John Smith all about critical path analysis, and the critical path that I am going to use.

I had an interview with John Smith to clarify different aspects of the project, he has decided that he wants the game to have a medieval theme, with knights and a Trojan horse (and possibly jousters). He also wants the game to be very hard and single player.

Starting the project

For my project I have decided to create a tower defence game.
So far I have created a presenetation that I have shown to john Smith, the owner of the website.
I have also written a report about why projects fail.
