The Design Challenge
Designing for a real-time party survival game meant every level had to work across wildly different player skill levels simultaneously, casual players needed to feel the fun, while competitive players needed to feel the tension. The core challenge was building fairness into chaos: spatial layouts and pacing had to create natural comeback moments without feeling manipulated. Playtest data was the constant gut-check, and iterating on difficulty curves based on real player behaviour became a core part of the workflow.
