Your report should have the following sections:

* Introduction/Overview
* Inspirations/Background
* Design
* Implementation
* Iteration/Evaluation
* Lessons Learned
* Conclusion

Grading will be based on:
* 30%   Writing & presentation quality (organization, grammar, flow)
* 30%   Technical scope
* 20%   Creativity
* 20%   Evaluation/Process

Again, the weighing may be changed.
Your report should have the following sections:

* Introduction/Overview
  - what did you do?
* Inspirations/Background
  - What led to what you did?
  - inspiring games, articles, daydreams, whatever
  - cite inspirations
* Design
  - high-level description of what you built
* Implementation
  - details, how it exists in Godot
  - ideally explain object hierarchies & scenes, code structure
  - enough detail that someone who looks at your code will have a basic
    idea of what is going on, how to find bits they are interested in
  - if chunks of your implementation came from outside sources, just
    give a high level summary of it and cite the source
* Iteration/Evaluation
  - organize what you wrote in your journal, what was the process?
  - how close did you get to what you wanted to do?
  - what are the major issues remaining?
  - report on any playtesting or other testing you did
  - cite resources that helped you along the way
* Lessons Learned
  - what do you know now that you didn't know at the start of the term?
* Conclusion

Progress report
---------------
 - how are you doing compared to what you planned to do (in the proposal)?
 - give drafts of whatever you can for the final report
   - progress on design
   - progress on implementation
   - progress on process (bring together recent journals, maybe expand)
   
Remember, progress is ultimately about the report, not what you are building
 - I grade the written artifacts
