*still waiting on Java C2 results to come in
Hello everyone!
It is Henry's and my upmost pleasure to display and explain how the currencies will be working and to FINALLY make the game functional!
The following Google Sheet contains all of our graded submissions and scores: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZwbuAzrzMUJrK1Vd_kFUZrAGg9E_JR6aGgWLCvgjsCw/edit#gid=0
Currently, test scores will remain anonymous, and hopefully students will be able to identify which result is theirs based on the test scores.
Shards are your ingame currency. Your goal is to make as MUCH as possible. The "richest" student (shard net worth) will recieve an additional reward. (WIP)
Assuming you get a question fully correct, you start off by making 10 shards. This SPQ (shards per question) increases when the student upgrades their SPQ tier (found at the bottom of the Google Sheet). This is a permanent upgrade, and each tier gives a bonus of 2 SPQ (i.e. 10 -> 12 -> 14...)
Tokens will be spent on actual rewards, like gift cards to your favorite coffee shops. However, there is a limit on the number of tokens you can have, and each level you achieve increases your maximum by 10. 3 shards can be exchanged for 1 token.
Want to try your luck?
In-Game Purchases:
Basic Box (10 shards): 10% -> tier up, 25% -> 5 tokens, 40% -> 1 token, 25% -> empty :( Better Box (20 shards): 30% -> tier up, 10% -> 10 tokens, 40% -> 3 tokens, 20% -> empty :(
LOL Box (50 shards): 10% -> tier up twice, 60% -> tier up, 20% -> 15 tokens, 10% -> empty :(
Guaranteed tier up costs are at the bottom of the Google Sheet.

How can I make an action?
By replying to this comment, Henry and I will do our best to do all the actions requested. You can say something like:
exchange 30 shards to 10 tokens OR exchange for 10 tokens
upgrade SPQ (once/twice/more)
buy 2 basic boxes and tier upand because I can understand things better than AI can...
buy basic boxes until I run out of shards or until I get a tier upTo all the actions we have fulfilled, I will also further reply to the comment. And because I'm not an AI, for all the mistakes I make that you notice on the next weekly update, just reply or send me an email (hastin.chen@gmail.com)
Any questions can be asked on the thread too!
See you next week,
hastin
