Expert blueprint for real-time strategy games including unit selection (drag box, shift-add), command systems (move, attack, gather), pathfinding (NavigationAgent2D with RVO avoidance), fog of war (SubViewport mask shader), resource economy (gather/build loop), and AI opponents (behavior trees, utility AI). Use for base-building RTS or tactical combat games. Trigger keywords: RTS, unit_selection, command_system, fog_of_war, pathfinding_RVO, resource_economy, command_queue.
Expert blueprint for desktop platforms (Windows/Linux/macOS) covering keyboard/mouse controls, settings menus, window management (fullscreen, resolution), keybind remapping, and Steam integration. Use when targeting PC platforms or implementing desktop-specific features. Keywords desktop, Windows, Linux, macOS, settings, keybinds, ConfigFile, DisplayServer, Steam, fullscreen.
Expert blueprint for racing games including vehicle physics (VehicleBody3D, suspension, friction), checkpoint systems (prevent shortcuts), rubber-banding AI (keep races competitive), drifting mechanics (reduce friction, boost on exit), camera feel (FOV increase with speed, motion blur), and UI (speedometer, lap timer, minimap). Use for arcade racers, kart racing, or realistic sims. Trigger keywords: racing_game, vehicle_physics, checkpoint_system, rubber_banding, drifting_mechanics, camera_feel.
Expert patterns for 2D/3D camera control including smooth following (lerp, position_smoothing), camera shake (trauma system), screen shake with frequency parameters, deadzone/drag for platformers, look-ahead prediction, and camera transitions. Use for player cameras, cinematic sequences, or multi-camera systems. Trigger keywords: Camera2D, Camera3D, SpringArm3D, position_smoothing, camera_shake, trauma_system, look_ahead, drag_margin, camera_limits, camera_transition.
Expert blueprint for save/load systems using JSON/binary serialization, PERSIST group pattern, versioning, and migration. Covers player progress, settings, game state persistence, and error recovery. Use when implementing save systems OR data persistence. Keywords save, load, JSON, FileAccess, user://, serialization, version migration, PERSIST group.
Expert blueprint for scene loading, transitions, async (background) loading, instance management, and caching. Covers fade transitions, loading screens, dynamic spawning, and scene persistence. Use when implementing level changes OR dynamic content loading. Keywords scene, loading, transition, async, ResourceLoader, change_scene, preload, PackedScene, fade.
Expert blueprint for UI themes using Theme resources, StyleBoxes, custom fonts, and theme overrides for consistent visual styling. Covers StyleBoxFlat/Texture, theme inheritance, dynamic theme switching, and font variations. Use when implementing consistent UI styling OR supporting multiple themes. Keywords Theme, StyleBox, StyleBoxFlat, add_theme_override, font, theme inheritance, dark mode.
Expert patterns for simplifying 3D games to 2D including dimension reduction strategies, camera flattening, physics conversion, 3D-to-sprite art pipeline, and control simplification. Use when porting 3D to 2D, creating 2D versions for mobile, or prototyping. Trigger keywords: CharacterBody3D to CharacterBody2D, Camera3D to Camera2D, Vector3 to Vector2, flatten Z-axis, orthogonal projection, 3D to sprite conversion, performance optimization.
Expert patterns for game economies including currency management (multi-currency, wallet system), shop systems (buy/sell prices, stock limits), dynamic pricing (supply/demand), loot tables (weighted drops, rarity tiers), and economic balance (inflation control, currency sinks). Use for RPGs, trading games, or resource management systems. Trigger keywords: EconomyManager, currency, shop_item, loot_table, dynamic_pricing, buy_sell_spread, currency_sink, inflation, item_rarity.
Expert blueprint for platformer games including precision movement (coyote time, jump buffering, variable jump height), game feel polish (squash/stretch, particle trails, camera shake), level design principles (difficulty curves, checkpoint placement), collectible systems (progression rewards), and accessibility options (assist mode, remappable controls). Based on Celeste/Hollow Knight design research. Trigger keywords: platformer, coyote_time, jump_buffer, game_feel, level_design, precision_movement.
Expert blueprint for horror games including tension pacing (sawtooth wave: buildup/peak/relief), Director system (macro AI controlling pacing), sensory AI (vision/sound detection), sanity/stress systems (camera shake, audio distortion), lighting atmosphere (volumetric fog, dynamic shadows), and "dual brain" AI (cheating director + honest senses). Use for psychological horror, survival horror, or atmospheric games. Trigger keywords: horror_game, tension_pacing, director_system, sensory_perception, sanity_system, volumetric_fog, AI_reaction_time.
Expert blueprint for Battle Royale games including shrinking zone/storm mechanics (phase-based, damage scaling), large-scale networking (relevancy, tick rate optimization), deployment systems (plane, freefall, parachute), loot spawning (weighted tables, rarity), and performance optimization (LOD, occlusion culling, object pooling). Use for multiplayer survival games or last-one-standing formats.
