Alpha Release

The primary focus of this sprint is the alpha release. As we like to say, this is effectively the course midterm. You need to have the major elements of your code complete, and you should have one playable level. The presentation format will be very similar to technical prototype, except that we will take one extra day. This will allow everyone to see all presentations.

I know this is as soon as you return from Spring Break. But you have been warned about this all semester and the amount of time excluding Spring Break is as much as you normally get. So there are no expectations for you to work over Spring Break.

There are no new documents for this sprint. Instead, you will spend your time working on the second drafts of all of the existing documents. Furthermore, to give you time to work on the alpha release, we will not ask you to turn in these documents until the end of the week after you return from Spring Break.
