Leveling of difficulty | The game’s difficulty is increasing at a logical level appropriate for the game. The coding for the leveling is simple and easy to increase as levels get harder. | The game’s difficulty is increasing, but in an odd way. The coding for the leveling is simple but tricky to increase as levels get harder. | The game’s difficulty is too hard or too easy and progresses in a random way. The coding for the leveling is complex and hard to increase as levels get harder. |
Code | The program runs properly without bugs and glitches. The code is very readable and easy to follow. The algorithms are elegant and simple. | The program runs, but with a few bugs and glitches. The code is readable but confusing in parts. The algorithms are clean, but could be better. | The program only partially runs The code is difficult to follow and understand.
