balance-check

Game balance analysis evaluates combat, economy, progression, and loot systems by comparing current configuration data against design document targets. This quantitative health assessment flags values that deviate from expected ranges to prevent degenerate strategies.

Detecting economy imbalances requires running a quantitative health assessment on your updated configuration data. This process compares new resource drop rates against design document targets to ensure fair gameplay and prevent degenerate strategies.

Checking combat tuning involves analyzing weapon damage values and combat configuration against design targets. This comparison identifies outliers and broken progressions that could allow players to exploit degenerate strategies.

Yes, a game design document is required to analyze progression gaps. The assessment requires read access to both data files and GDDs to compare current game balance values against intended design targets.

Yes, loot system balance can be evaluated alongside combat, economy, and progression domains. The analysis operates across these areas by comparing current configuration data against design targets to provide actionable tuning recommendations.

A quantitative health assessment needs read access to game balance data files, formulas, and configuration files. These are compared against design document targets to identify outliers and economy imbalances.
