However, it is recommended not to exceed 3 people.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Submit the game by emailing <a href="mailto:sgdc@stevens.edu" target="_blank">sgdc@stevens.edu</a> with your submission. This can be a zip file, link to a web page, etc. Please include setup instructions if there are any.</div>
<div><br></div><div>There will be 3 judges. Myself and two undisclosed (because I haven't decided) others. We will judge your game on the following categories: Overall, Innovation, Theme, Fun, Graphics/Audio, Technical. The winners will be decided on an average of all the categories.</div>
<div><br></div><div>There are prizes (Visa Gift Cards): 1st Place is $50, 2nd is $25, 3rd is $10.</div><div><br></div><div>Following is the schedule for when the Linux Lab will be open.
