Code: Select all
Art and Style 5 points
So1und 5 points
Polish and Completeness 10 points
Originality 15 points
Overall 15 points
Both of these categories have some oddball results from last year's contest. For example, "Nothing Good Can Come of This" was ranked last in originality by non-entrants, but first in originality by entrants. I get the impression that nobody's certain on how to judge these two categories, and that their results largely overlap with the other, more concrete categories.
A Proposal
Let's scrap the grading scale and have just a single vote for the overall score. Rate every game out of 10. That's it. The top 5 games get prizes. Really simple.
In addition, let's have a bunch of smaller categories run independently:
Code: Select all
Art and Style
Sound
Game Play
Originality
Humor
Programming
Multiplayer
