Abstract :
Evaluation phase plays an important role in software development in general and in game development in particular, thus it is an important part in designing a game development methodology. In the research presented here, evaluation phase has been investigated the user and expert evaluation in details. This paper focuses on providing general heuristics to aid in the evaluation process. The result is a generic evaluation framework that would work for most game genres, thus it can be included in a generic game development methodology.
