• All source code in a folder with your name (e.g., EugeneCHNG)
• All media files properly contained within folders (images, sound, etc)
• A report describing your game story, OOP design (important!), game mechanics with the structure (Title, Introduction to the Game, Methods OOP in detail, Game Mechanics, Game Design, and etc., followed by a Conclusion) with an acknowledgement of all graphics/media files that youve copied from the WWW with URLs.

Plagiarism:

You should write the mark-up and scripts required for this assignment yourself. If you directly copy examples found on the web, you should use comments to acknowledge this (and marks will be adjusted accordingly).

Your report should be written in your own words. It is important that you clearly identify and reference any sources of information (including books, papers and websites) that you have used to write your report.

Anyone found to have copied from other students or from sources (such as the web, books and papers) without acknowledgement will receive zero marks.
