SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you find broken game balance early by analyzing balance data, formulas, and configuration for outliers, degenerate strategies, and economy/progression problems.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Domain-aware balance analysis: Switches between Combat, Economy, Progression, and Loot based on the system or file content you provide, then runs targeted checks for that domain.
  • Design-guided validation: Reads the relevant GDD to compare actual values and behavior against intended targets and expected ranges.
  • Actionable remediation output: Produces a structured report with health status, detected outliers, degenerate strategies, and prioritized recommendations, then supports a fix-and-verify cycle.

Quick Start

Run balance-check with the game system name or the path to the balance data file you changed to get a balance report with outliers and prioritized fixes.

Frequently Asked Questions about balance-check

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I detect outliers and broken progression in game balance data?▼

Game balance validation compares your actual balance data and configuration values against intended GDD targets to find outliers and degenerate strategies. It works by running domain-specific calculations across combat, economy, progression, and loot workflows after edits.

How do I validate loot probabilities and combat balance against my game design document?▼

You validate loot probabilities and combat balance against your GDD by reading the design document to compare actual values and behavior with expected ranges. This design-guided approach identifies progression tuning issues and economy imbalances.

Can I automatically check my game economy configuration for imbalances after making edits?▼

Yes, you can check your game economy configuration for imbalances by running a targeted balance analysis after any balance-related edits. The system detects economy imbalances and outputs a structured report with recommended fixes and a fix-and-verify prompt.

What is the best way to find degenerate strategies in my game's progression tuning?▼

The best way to find degenerate strategies in progression tuning is to run domain-aware balance analysis on your configuration data. This identifies broken progressions and outputs a structured report with prioritized recommendations and a fix-and-verify cycle.

Does balance analysis require a specific data file path to check game systems?▼

Balance analysis works with either a specific data file path or just the game system name. Providing the changed file path enables targeted domain checks, while the system name generates a general balance report with outliers and fixes.

How do I fix and verify detected balance issues in my loot and combat systems?▼

You fix and verify detected balance issues by following the structured report's prioritized recommendations and executing the fix-and-verify prompt. This cycle helps resolve loot and combat outliers while ensuring values meet intended GDD targets.
