Enter Thesis - It Has Begun!

Welcome to Fighting Through Thesis, my blog site for Prof. Sanders' IMM 498 section. As per the namesake, my preliminary aspiration for this semester is to create a proof of concept or early playable prototype for a traditional 2D fighting game using 3D assets in the Unity game development engine.
The goal of this website is to provide a running documentation of our progress over the course of the semester, as a spot to collect related resources to assist in research and troubleshooting for our own project, and especially to provide trackable developments from week to week with our proof of concept and early prototypes as aspects are added and refined.
To begin with a little perspective on myself, I've spent the last handful of years in and out of the Interactive Multimedia major on my way through college, focusing particularly on the field of 3D art and animation. My strengths lie in rigging and animation using Autodesk Maya, but I am willing to wear many different hats and am happy to dabble especially in character design, modeling and writing, but also to a lesser degree in the audio and scripting aspects of a project. Several samples of my previous work in 3D and other mediums can be viewed on my Carbonmade portfolio here:

Additionally, I have several videos from previous game development-related course projects available for viewing on Youtube, such as this example and several more linked below:

Hope you enjoyed these samples, looking forward to working on this project and making more neat stuff!
