Game Generation Coding Guidelines

These are the rules Claude MUST follow when generating a new multiplayer game for the Steam Deck Randomizer system. Every generated game must compile, run, and be fun for 2-5 players on Steam Deck.

Golden Rules

1. Every game MUST be multiplayer (2-5 players). No single-player games.
2. Every game MUST work with gamepad AND keyboard. See steamdeck-controls skill.
3. Every game MUST extend the shared engine. Do not reinvent rendering, input, or networking.
4. Every game MUST use bitECS for entity management. See bitecs skill.
5. Every game MUST fit in TWO files: one client scene file, one server room file.
6. Every game MUST have clear win/lose conditions and 2-5 minute rounds.
7. Every game MUST use only assets from the provided catalog. No external URLs.
8. Every game MUST be frame-rate independent (use delta time, never frame counts).
9. Every game MUST target 1280x800 resolution (Steam Deck native).
10. Every game MUST handle player join/leave gracefully mid-game.
