Iteration

Iteration in Arcane Forge turns player feedback into concrete design and production updates.

Feedback Is Part of the Build Loop

Treat feedback as a structured input to development, not a separate post-launch task.

Goal:

  • Detect recurring issues
  • Prioritize high-impact fixes
  • Convert findings into explicit design changes

Two Analysis Modes

  1. Assisted discussion:
  • Select comments
  • Ask targeted questions in the Design Assistant
  1. Automated analysis:
  • Cluster comments
  • Produce opportunities and proposed mutations

Output of Iteration

The end product is a mutation-backed design update that can be turned into a delta GDD and saved back to the Knowledge Base.
