Gantt chart

This is the Gantt chart I created for my project. It contains all the tasks that will have to be completed during this project. Resources, dependencies and milestones are shown

Tasks now overdue and why

There are still some tasks not completed. I have not done the Gantt chart in MS Project 2007 and Critical Path Analysis. The deadlines have not been reached yet, so I still have some time to complete these tasks before they are overdue.

Tasks that have been completed

Many preparation tasks have been  completed this week. Project Initiation Documentation was comlpeted, which contains all the informationabout my project, and it was later presented to the client. Also I have researched why projects fail, and wrote a report on how to avoid these obstacles. A risk assessment has been done for my project. It contains all the likely reasons why my project could be delayed or failed. A project life cycle document has been completed. It shows the step by step progression of a project and what tasks are included in each stage. Some research on project management tools and methologies has been done and recorded in a report.

Meeting the client

I have met my client for my project. We have discussed the game and what the client wants from me. He was happy with what I had to present, letting him know what the game will do and roughly what it will look like.

To provide even more detail, I should do some research and find out what type of TD games are popular and what type I should choose for this game.
