In this game, competitors are presented with a numeric goal, and they select from a pre-defined list of numeric values and operands (+,-,*,/) to hit the given goal.   The previous time this game ran we received a submission that met the requirements but used a shopping metaphor.  We would like a different game time used.  You can change it to whatever you think is cool, it just need to base this activity in collecting operands and operators (math expression game). We want this game to be beautiful, and can win you awards.  But watch out!  Division by 0 is undefined, and you never know what that might do to you...

This game is part of the CS-STEM initiative. The DARPA CS-STEM project will contain a number of different activities for users to participate in. We have a number of ideas that are going to be implemented. This

Round 1

 At the end of Round 1, the Client will choose five (5) Round 1 winners, each will win $150 as Round 1 Milestone Winners. These winners and any member who had a passing submission in round one will be eligible to compete in Round 2 for the additional $1500 in prizes.  

For round 1, all we want to see is the main game screen.  This is *not* the title / splash screen, but a screen showing the main game, including the operands, numeric values, the main goal for the current level, score, and anything else that will be part of the main screen the user sees when playing the game.

 

 

Round 2

Round 2 will start with the announcement of the five (5) $150 Round 1 winners and their design review
