Students were graded based on:
Level Design Factors (e.g.: the map is memorable, thanks to its unique features and identity)
Deathmatch Gameplay (e.g.: vials are leading the player towards key areas and med kits in hot spots)
Geometry (e.g.: every single BSP brush is convex)
Visuals (e.g.: there isn't a single instance of placeholder material visible in the game)
Technical (e.g.: there is a nav mesh volume being used to generate navigation)
Formatting (e.g.: every file perfectly follows the naming convention)
