SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a structured framework to make architecture, performance-budget, and technical-debt decisions for game projects, preventing costly missteps and rework.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Architecture governance with ADRs and a master systems registry to document decisions, owners, and dependencies.
  • Performance budgeting and automated profiling guidance to enforce frame-time budgets across render, logic, physics, and scripting.
  • Debt stewardship and prototyping discipline to classify debt, schedule repayments, and separate exploratory work from production code.

Quick Start

Outline an architecture decision for a 6-person indie game evaluating Unity vs Godot within a 12-month plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I document game engine selection decisions for a small team?

Track technical debt in game projects by classifying liabilities, scheduling repayments, and separating exploratory prototyping from production code. This governance approach ensures debt stewardship prevents architectural rework during development.

How do I enforce a frame-time budget across render and logic systems?

Enforce frame-time budgets across render, logic, physics, and scripting by applying performance budgeting and automated profiling guidance. This establishes strict performance constraints to maintain target frame rates across game projects.

Can I use this architecture governance framework for cross-platform game development?

This architecture governance framework supports cross-platform game development concerns within small-to-mid sized teams. It applies structured decision processes to manage engine selection, pipeline design, and documentation templates effectively.

What is the best way to evaluate Unity vs Godot for an indie game?

The best way to evaluate game engines like Unity vs Godot is outlining architecture decisions within a structured 12-month plan. This captures performance budgets and technical debt impacts to ensure viable game-tech decisions.
