What problem does it solve?

GDS creation often suffers from scattered notes, inconsistent structure, and unclear project scope. This skill provides a guided, collaborative workflow to turn briefs, research, and brainstorming into a structured Game Design Document.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided, frontmatter-driven 14-step workflow that tracks progress and decisions.
  • Smart input discovery that aggregates game briefs, research, brainstorming, and existing project docs (brownfield) to seed the GDD.
  • Step-by-step elicitation and validation against a loaded game-type guide, with A/P/C collaboration menus to refine concepts.
  • Automatic generation of type-specific sections (Executive Summary, Pillars, Core Gameplay, Mechanics, Progression, Epics, Metrics) that align with the chosen game type.
  • Collaboration-friendly workflow suitable for designers, PMs, and developers; handles brownfield and greenfield projects.

Use Case Examples:

  • A design team starting from a vague concept can produce a full GDD by working through the steps with user input.
  • A project adding new features can anchor them into the existing GDD via the step-by-step process.

Quick Start

Initiate the GDD workflow by loading existing briefs and proceeding to Step 2.
