Game design tactics
summary
Claims a molecular design method that breaks every action into player-centered parameters (not character stats) such as time-to-react, movement direction, input instances, observation and strategy, stores them in a table, assigns per-cell difficulty and composes "molecules" that become enemies, obstacles and level blueprints. The workflow produces a full game blueprint in about a day to two weeks, cuts communication/meetings and designer/programmer time (claims ~50% savings), enables QA targeting and mechanic reuse across projects.
