Congratulations, you've completed your game! After working on it so hard, you'll likely want to make sure it's playable on the Game Cabinet for the rest of eternity! You'll be happy to hear that it's actually pretty simple to get your game ready for Cabinet-release. First things first, make sure you meet the game requirements:

• The game to be added to the Game Cabinet is a complete, polished, playable game.
• All game-related media (music, artwork, movies) is original, public domain or otherwise licensed.
• Game content is appropriate for display in an academic environment.
• All the developers are currently registered NAU students in good academic standing.
• The game was developed only during their time attending NAU. (Sorry, Alums & Faculty!)
• A majority vote has passed by the ACM (after a demonstration) to allow the game to be added to the Game Cabinet.

If you meet all the previous requirements (minus the majority vote), then you'll be happy to know that it's all pretty easy from here on out. Now, it's time to prep your game to meet the technical requirements.
Follow these simple directions:

1. If you didn't develop your game in Plasmacore, you'll first need to generate an executable (MyGame.exe) file from within the context of your development environment (refer to your documentation).
2. Create a game.desc file (in Notepad or other text editor) and add it to the base level of your Game directory, according to the directions here.
3. Re-map your game control keystrokes to use the control board by following the instructions here.
4. Make sure you adhere to the ACM's Quality Guidelines to ensure your game runs smoothly and bug-free on the Game Cabinet system.

Once you've finished prepping your game for Game Cabinet release, all that's left is to attend the next ACM meeting and present your game to the ACM Club. The club will then hold a vote to determine whether your game meets the standards for release (This isn't a popularity contest, just a vote to make sure you've met all the requirements). If this vote passes, then you're in!
