Judging criteria
Criteria as listed on the official page; weights are not stated there, so they are drawn equal. source ↗
How thoroughly and skillfully does the project use Qloo? Does the code reflect genuine effort and a working, non-trivial implementation?
Does the project deliver a complete, coherent product experience, not just a technical proof of concept?
Does the project make a credible, specific case for solving a real problem for a real audience and does the solution actually address that problem based on what's demonstrated?
Is this a creative, non-obvious use of Qloo and does the team demonstrate genuine understanding of the problem space they're working in?
