On the 19th of January this year, I presented my dissertation progress in front of my lecturers. Just over a week later I received the mark, and the following comments:

This
dissertation is going very well and promises much. I remain a touch sceptical
about the veracity of your feedback and your methods, and would advise you to
be absolutely clear on the distinction between subjectivity and objectivity.
Given that your dissertation pivots around the definitions of ‘easy to learn’
and also ‘hard to master’, you should give a little more thought to how you
intend to analyse your work in your post-mortems, and how you intend to
integrate your conclusions in an iterative manner. Words like ‘annoying’ and
‘addicting’ can have different meanings to different people and you should
attempt to retain control over your meanings, especially when conducting
usability tests. Nonetheless, your presentation was excellent and your work is
very encouraging so far.

I am
enjoying this dissertation. You are making very good efforts at integrating
theory with practice. You blog consistently so it is easy to follow your
progress and you have made a very simple but addictive little android game
‘Square Drop’ which attempts to hit the criteria you have set for yourself. I
am looking forward to seeing what you come up with next. Keep up this good
work.
Overall the feedback is positive and states that my dissertation is going in the right direction so there's not much more I can do, but carry on the way I was. The only concern is the way I deal with player feedback, so I'll improve upon that with my second prototype.
