today i showed the status of my project and the prof very liked "Favonian Freighter".
because of this:
Using words from a different language in a title is a common tactic.
The alliteration of the title is catchy in a good way.
Also, the word "Favovian" is both exotic, and calming. It is full of softer consonants.

and because "favovian" is a darker word, with "freighter" is a brighter word. if you understand.
but i'm not sure yet.

Tell us more about this project you are working on... is it a University project?  What's the assignment?  What is the class for?

yes, the game i am working on for two months now is an university project. it is a really open project, the only assignment is: main topic must has to do with zeppelins.
i am in the seventh semester now, the brunch of study is called "Multimedia / Virtual Reality-Design"
maybe it sounds odd to you that i do a game, what everyone could do in his/her spare time. but... it is a real project, with creative ideas, brainstormings, concepts, drawings, schedules, limited time, stress, working into a new tool and script language, managing script/color/file-limitations...

Somewhere in Europe, I would imagine (Germany...?).

For somewhere in America, there's always GuildHall at SMU.
