1 Appendix H - What Goes Into a Milestone Definition Here's an example of what a milestone description might look like for an actionadventure game based upon a hypothetical license called AdventureX. Sample Milestone List from AdventureX COMPLETION DATE MILESTONE DESCRIPTION April 2111 Proof of Concept Work for Hire Deliverable Items 1-10 as listed above Contract execution 5/08/11 XYZ Puzzle Design This includes the design of the main overarching game element which depends upon elements from X man's Prison World and included levels, the Electric World, and the Waterfall world. The deliverable includes the design of the XYZ game element using the Puzzle Template (as Defined in Schedule H), including a golden path section to insure all elements are complete. It describes game element mechanics in detail and includes explicit descriptions of what elements from other worlds and levels are required to solve the game element. Concept sketches are included to clarify the operation of any complex game element elements. 6/06/11 Level 1 Textured This includes the geometry for The Wild Earth running in the engine for display purposes as a user controlled flyby. This will now have texturing. There will be no collisions, lighting, game elements, or game play. The Wild Earth Textured will not run at full speed. 7/10/11 Puzzle Design for Waterfall and Electric Worlds For the Waterfall World and Electric World and included levels, this includes a written overview of the historical perspective of the World and included levels: what its purpose is in the AdventureX universe, what its basic rules are, who wrote it, why, and when. This deliverable describes the game elements that a player must solve at the same level of detail as a Strategy Guide Notes (as Defined in Schedule 9 below) book, including identifying the game element elements and describing each in a similar Strategy Guide Notes style. It includes enough information so that readers know all the pieces of the big picture, but not including walkthroughs or complete designs. No brainstorming notes are submitted, only recommended game element concepts. Concept sketches that give a feel for the overall theme of the World and included levels are included, as well as brief descriptions of important environmental effects of the World and included levels.

2 8/11/11 First Playable and Completion of Remaining World and included levels Puzzle Designs and Engine Elements List First Playable includes The Wild Earth running in the game engine, including lighting, collisions, and game play, including all age game elements completed and in asset complete and testable. This will include one biped character walking and performing one action; The character will not have final textures, geometry, or movement. This will not run at full speed. This playable may include major bugs (e.g. crash bugs) and you may not be able to play the World and included levels from start to finish. Remaining Puzzle Designs: For Y-Man's World and included levels this includes a written overview of the historical perspective of the World and included levels: what its purpose is in the AdventureX universe, what its basic rules are, who wrote it, why, and when. This deliverable is specific about game element elements, describing the game elements that a player must solve at the same level of detail as a Strategy Guide Notes book, including enough information so that readers know all the pieces of the big picture, but not including walkthroughs or complete designs. No brainstorming notes are submitted, only recommended game element concepts. Concept sketches that give a feel for the overall theme of the World and included levels are included, as well as brief descriptions of important environmental effects of the World and included levels. The design should also highlight any use of real-time 3D elements. Also included will be information on any final design modifications to The Wild Earth world, as well as the following general points related to overall game Story: A definition of story progression within the game, including a diagram of how the user progresses through the World and included levels of the game. A description of the overarching game elements of the game and specifically what elements are required from other areas of the game to solve them. An account of the events of the game formatted as a player discovery chart. This describes what happens, in what order, and what the user learns from each event. Where possible, character motivations and thought processes will be provided. In places where the game branches, acknowledgment that a branch is possible, then we will follow each branch one after the other. If necessary, include a flow chart showing all possible story and gameplay branches. A description of the story function of each World and included levels. This describes the plot points that players will definitely learn during the World and included levels and how they will learn them. It describes possible details and clues players may note if they are observant, final lists of which will appear in the Detailed World and included levels Designs. It refers readers to appropriate World and included levels Overviews for additional details, and considers which plot points are communicated by game elements, the XYZ game element in particular.

3 Engine Elements List Updated and Included 9/19/11 X-Man's World and included levels Geometry, the Waterfall World and included levels Detailed Design, X-Man's World and included levels Geometry includes the geometry for the X- Man's World and included levels running in the engine for architectural purposes only as a user controlled flyby.
