Pitch feedback was somewhat as expected. They did like a lot of the work I have done during the end of the semester 1 and beginning of semester 2. Also I had been advised on looking at some interactive artists as this might help to develop the art side of my project. A couple of tutors expressed the same concerns I had in my mind about the collaboration projects. Basically the advice was to think: “Are any of these projects really suitable to showcase my art?" Sadly, I think they are right. No matter how much I would love to see my art in the game I need to choose what is best/more suitable to my project and the answer is probably none of the two.
So now I am back in the same place I was 2+ weeks ago. The scary prospect of coming up with my own game idea, game design and mechanics is back. Can I pull this off? My mind had been racing through ideas since the end of my presentation and so far I have not come up with anything decent at all. All of this makes me really very stressed. I need to start my artwork now if I want it to be done really well and I am back to "square one".
This week I have also gone back to the dissertation: created new document for it and prepared the layout. Also added information from my Research Proposals Literature Review part and fixed some of the things up, borrowed books (mentioned in my previous post) from a library to address my knowledge gaps and get some useful quotes for the dissertation.
Also prepared a more detailed Semester 2 Learning Plan/Timetable. Copies of it can be found here:

Apart from university work I have also prepared my CV and will try to get feedback on it. Also, somehow I need to find time to put my website up. I really need it for job search as well as the exposition (for business cards). When I will be able to do all of .... I am not too sure. In any case the only thing I can think of at the moment is my project and my idea for the game which I do not really have.
