• Group 2 - Wednesday at 10.15 (Liivi 2 room 003, 15 seats, computer classroom)

Rules

1. Being in labs is voluntary but highly recommended because otherwise, you will have to solve the tasks on your own.
2. All the tasks are individual and you should do them alone unless it is said otherwise.
3. Task deadlines are before the next lab at 12:15.
   1. Submitting up to 24 hours after deadline: score is reduced by 50%
   2. Submitting more than 24 hours after deadline: 100% of points deduced
4. The tasks have to be submitted through the Courses page.
5. Depending on the lab you have to submit either a compiled build of a game or a picture of your results. If you have to submit a build of your game then:
   1. The build has to include all the necessary files to run it on another PC and those files have to be zipped to a single package (only ZIP package is accepted).
   2. Failing to submit an executable package will result in 0 points for that homework.
