Midterm Rubric (20 pts.)

Remember that your weekly checkins & progress on your project will go towards your Homework grade.

Models - 5 pts

  • Fully implemented three models using Maya & Substance painter
    • Each model has a sufficiently detailed mesh
    • Each model is fully textured
    • Models cannot be composites of (unmodified, or close to) primitives

Design & Creativity - 5 pts

  • Did you actually do the design part of the assignment?
    • Game is clearly autobiographical
    • Accomplishes the gameplay requirements of the assignement
      • Input, session length, mechanics, level design, etc.
    • Does not violate any of the restrictions
  • Is the game clearly your own work and is not obviously derivative?

Functionality & Usability - 5 pts

"Does my game work?"

Criteria

  • Runs on itch.io
  • No critical bugs
    • You'll probably have some bugs, but any that prevent the player from playing the game are no good
  • Is the game playble using the intended input?
  • Is the game usable in a way that does not detract from the design intent?
  • Is it clear that you playtested the game and solved obvious usability flaws or broken functionality?

Version Control / Code - 5 pts

Criteria

  • Is your repository available on GitHub?
  • Are you using a correct .gitignore?
  • Are you demonstrating basic understanding of version control workflow?
    • commit, push, pull, local/remote
  • Are you committing incrementally (atomically) instead of "dumping" your commits?
