4 years ago I'll definitely revisit his paper and investigate their other work as well. Thanks for bringing them to my attention, I've been glossing over most of the papers I've found to gain some preliminary understanding but now that I know they share some important similar goals, I'll pursue it further.

I came across a paper by Kelvin Sung and was going to add it to your collection, but I was pleased to discover that you've already found it https://github.com/krishols/pythongamedev/blob/master/research%20papers/game_themed_programming_assignments.md. This seems like one of the papers/groups most aligned with our vision, and I think it's worth it to do a deeper dive on what they've done. This Issue is a prompt for us to look at their other papers and recent work, via:
- IEEE TOCE Journal Paper https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?arnumber=5559399: Often journal papers will be more substantial descriptions of a project, combining multiple conference papers. They will also usually have a higher standard and quality of reporting, since there are fewer length limits.
- Dr. Sung's Google Scholar page https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=Q036AQ8AAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate: It seems like he might have some other papers worth reading up on to see what has been done recently in this space.
- Their group's website https://sites.uw.edu/gtcs/: This looks to have been updated in at least 2018, so I think they're still somewhat active.
They seem to have the same mindset of being largely instructor focused, and desiring to "maximize context, minimize content". They seem focused in the Java/C# language space (C# implies Unity), which immediately does distinguish them from our work in Python. Although a non-trivial number of software projects have been dragged from Java to Python, I would argue that that usually leads to non-Pythonic code and will not be the minimalistic course additions that theoretically are possible. We'll want to look at their API, any evidence they've collected, and find out what we can learn from their work.
