SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you analyze game balance problems for the mercenary strategy game, validate formulas, simulate economy outcomes, and turn scattered numbers into clear tuning guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Balance Analysis: Review progression curves, reward ratios, costs, and success-rate formulas to find bottlenecks and outliers.
  • Economy Simulation: Estimate time-to-progress, break-even points, and expected value changes before making design adjustments.
  • Use Case: A designer wants to know whether quest rewards are too generous or too punishing, and this Skill produces a data-backed comparison with concrete before-and-after recommendations.

Quick Start

Use the balance-designer skill to analyze the specified game system and recommend concrete numerical adjustments.

Frequently Asked Questions about balance-designer

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze game balance data and recommend numerical adjustments for a strategy game?

Game balance analysis requires SQL-based data inspection and formula review to validate progression curves, reward ratios, and costs, producing concrete before-and-after numerical tuning recommendations for quest economy and recruitment odds.

What is the best way to simulate economy outcomes and progression curves before making design changes?

Economy simulation estimates time-to-progress, break-even points, and expected value changes by reviewing static data and game logic, turning scattered numbers into clear tuning guidance with data-backed before-and-after comparisons.

How do I validate quest formulas and reward ratios in Supabase-backed game data?

Validating quest formulas in Supabase-backed data involves SQL-based data inspection to review success-rate formulas, identify bottlenecks and outliers in reward ratios, and propose concrete numerical adjustments to correct imbalances.

Can I use this approach to tune recruitment odds and movement timing for a mercenary band strategy game?

Yes, tuning recruitment odds and movement timing applies directly to the mercenary band strategy game by analyzing static data and game logic to find progression bottlenecks and recommend specific numerical changes.

Does balance analysis require external dependencies to review costs and progression curves?

No external dependencies are required; balance analysis operates by applying SQL-based data inspection and formula review directly to Supabase-backed static data to evaluate costs and progression curves.

Why does my game economy feel too punishing or too generous when evaluating time-to-progress metrics?

An economy feels too punishing or generous when progression curves and reward ratios contain bottlenecks or outliers, which balance analysis identifies by simulating expected value changes and time-to-progress metrics.
