Audit an existing or proposed premium pass (battle pass, season pass) for value proposition integrity, progression health, free track balance, reward pacing, engagement loop quality, and economy impact. Use when evaluating a pass before launch, diagnosing why a pass is underperforming, reviewing a competitor's pass design, or stress-testing a proposed structure before committing to production.
Audit an existing leaderboard or competitive ranking system in a game for stagnation risk, scale problems, goal density, motivation quality, reward bracket design, group composition fairness, and top-of-ladder sustainability. Use when evaluating a leaderboard that feels flat, unfair, or disengaging; when reviewing a competitive feature before launch; or when diagnosing why a leaderboard isn't driving expected engagement or retention.
Design a complete leaderboard system from scratch for a game, feature, or competitive mode. Covers group structure, league ladder, round cadence, reward brackets, score design, group composition, and top-of-ladder sustainability. Use when starting a new competitive feature, when a basic leaderboard needs a full redesign, or when a team needs a concrete leaderboard specification to build from. Always asks intake questions before designing — and offers sensible defaults if the designer doesn't have answers yet.
Turn a game-design emotional canvas into a curated visual moodboard by deriving image-search queries, gathering a candidate pool from the internet, saving the files locally, rejecting weak references, and rendering both an HTML board and a flattened JPG board. Use when a user wants a moodboard from an emotional canvas, wants visual references for a game concept, or wants a reusable workflow that turns emotional direction into search terms, downloaded image files, and a tastefully curated presentation-ready board.
Audit game design goals, feature objectives, OKRs, initiative aims, or any stated design intent against the SMART criteria adapted for game design. Use when a user shares a design goal, player experience target, retention goal, or feature aim and wants it evaluated or rewritten. Trigger on phrases like "audit my design goals", "is this a good design objective", "my feature goal is...", "we want players to feel...", "our aim for this feature is...", or whenever someone states what a design should achieve and it feels vague or unmeasurable. Also trigger when a design document contains aims or success criteria that need stress-testing. Even soft goals like "players should feel powerful" are valid — apply the framework and return both the audit and a rewritten version.
Create a concise one-page game design document and export it as both markdown and PDF. Use when a user wants a one-page design doc, one-pager, pitchable design summary, or compact game concept sheet that captures identity, pillars, summary, features, interface, aesthetic direction, sound, audience, platform, and milestone plan on a single page.
Audit a game, feature, progression system, social system, live-ops loop, onboarding flow, monetization surface, or multiplayer space through the lens of the Big Five personality traits (OCEAN): Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. Use when evaluating which personality-style preferences a design feels comfortable for, which kinds of players it energizes or exhausts, how much structure, novelty, social intensity, conflict, or emotional pressure it creates, or when you need a personality-fit lens that is different from archetype or motivation-segment frameworks.
Audit a game, feature, progression system, social system, live-ops loop, monetization surface, or onboarding flow through a granular player motivation taxonomy. Use when evaluating which player motivation archetypes a design strongly serves, neglects, or actively repels; when comparing a concept against segments such as Steady Advancers, Curious Solvers, Competitive Achievers, Imaginative Creators, Strategic Leaders, Immersed Storywriters, Reward Seekers, Passionate Belongers, and Category Enthusiasts; when translating player research into practical design recommendations; or when you need a more nuanced alternative to a simple Bartle-style motivation read.
