💯Judging Criteria

  • Creativity (How creative was the asset based on the theme?)
  • Usability (Versatility, different uses/scale/good collider interactions) worth double points
  • Optimisation (does the asset look optimised in The Sandbox Game? Low face and node count is more optimised)
  • Aesthetics (Geometry, shape / Proportion / Colour Palette / Texture / Level of detail).
