Game Concept Brainstorm#

Goal#

Increase build success by locking the game fantasy before architecture or implementation.

Deliverables#

• docs/game-studio/concept-brainstorm.md
• docs/game-studio/requirements.md

Use ./shared/templates/concept-brainstorm.md.

Use when#

• the request is exciting but blurry
• the user asks for “make it good” or “make it fun”
• the team needs to protect the core fantasy from being flattened during implementation

Workflow#

1. Restate the player fantasy in one sentence.
2. Lock the primary verb, the reward loop, and the first 30-second promise.
3. Define 3-4 design pillars.
4. Separate must-haves from experiments.
5. Prefer decisive defaults over endless questions.
6. Feed the result into game-requirements-brainstorm, game-scope-profile, and game-ux-flow-designer.

Important#

This is not for random ideation. It is for increasing the chance that the first serious build actually feels like the intended game.
