Document Revisions

Alpha is an incredibly important push in this course. You should effectively think of it as your “midterm”. Because of that reason, there are no new documents during the week of alpha release.

However we ask that you spend this time revising your documents. So far you have written

This revision is semi-optional. If you absolutely feel like you must skip this step so that you can finish alpha, you may. We do not recommend this, as this week counts as your second revision for these documents. If you do not submit them, you will not get an additional revision. The version that you submit for your final document portfolio will be your last revision and final grade for these documents.

The exception to this is the concept document. This assignment counts as your final submission for your concept document. So unless you are happy with your current grade (e.g. you have already made a 100), you should submit this revision.


Submission

Group 1: Sat, Apr 02 at 11:59 PM

Group 2: Sat, Apr 16 at 11:59 PM

Because of issues with getting comments back in time, we have broken up the revisions into two groups.

  • Group 1: Concept Document and Gameplay Specification
  • Group 2: Design Specification and Architecture Specification

Group 1 is due before you leave for Spring Break. Group 2 is due the Saturday after you return from Spring Break. We do not expect you to work on either of those documents over Spring Break.

There is no new assignment in CMS for your revisions. Instead, we will give you an extension in CMS for the original assignments. You will submit your revision there in place of your original submission.
