SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

New game developers often struggle with blank slate syndrome, waste time on misaligned workflows, or feel overwhelmed by the complexity of game production. This skill eliminates that friction by first assessing your current project state and experience level, then routing you to the exact right next steps for your situation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Personalized state assessment: Silently checks for existing engine configuration, design documents, source code, and prototypes to avoid generic one-size-fits-all advice.
  • Tailored workflow routing: Guides users with no game idea through full concept-to-production workflows, or helps users with existing projects identify gaps and next steps.
  • Use case: A first-time user with no game concept gets routed to ideation tools, while a user with existing GDDs and prototypes gets directed to architecture and adoption steps.
