    Project Status Summary (Percentage Complete: 0%):

    • We have begun to investigate technologies for our application. We have also completed a low-level design for the project. Our basic idea is creating a chess variant game via a 3d game development engine, and then utilizing a web application architecture to host that game.

    Lab Time and Accomplishments this week built on last week’s work

    • No Lab Time this week.

    • Investigated Stockfish as an avenue for creating this project. Forking this package and editing it is an avenue but not the best way to go about this

    • Investigating a game development engine (Unity) for creating the base chess game.

    • Learning languages for this project (C#, JavaScript, Python)

    Next week’s SMART goals:

    • Create a GitHub Repository for team members (potentially two, one for the chess game and one for the web-app) (Michael, Robert)

    • Learn more about game development with Unity and C# (Michael, Ali, Izabella)

    • Discovery on Web application architecture (All)

    • Begin writing Chess application in Unity (Robert).

    • Begin design our UI for the website (Izabella, Ali)

    Action Plan (task responsibility, timing, help needed):

    • Learn more about the languages and technologies we are going to be using and how they will fit together

    • Get a base setup for the web application and chess game on GitHub

    • Start Design chess game UML diagram

    • Start creating the base chess game

    • Set up bi-weekly/weekly meeting time with advisor

    Open Issues, Risks, Change Requests:

    • Finalizing choices of technologies/frameworks that will be used in project
