Thesis Demonstration

I've just completed my thesis' project on game development.
The project meant to be a fighting-style game (like Tekken, Mortal Kombat etc..) written in XNA 4.0 and combine the power of Kinect. The aim of the project was to create a mechanism to handle appropriate the fighting models. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to focus on graphics design.

Thesis

Hello, roughly a year later I decided to upload my Thesis report, project source and binaries, because in the meantime some people asked me for. Please excuse me for any mistakes in my project as I don't have the time to clean it up before posting it. I am doing this because I hate reinventing the wheel; so if anyone find it useful I will be glad to see a better solution and/or a different approach/project; even a 'thnx' would be great :). If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me via email at a.semertzidis(at)gmail.com.

Below you can download my report and my project files:

* Please keep in mind that in order to run the binaries files you should have installed XNA 4.0 Framework and running Kinect on v.1.0.0.45 Beta 2 drivers, otherwise application will crash on start.
