# Aetherbound Guild / 裂脉远征团
|
|
|
|
An original landscape 2D Japanese hand-drawn guild-expedition strategy game.
|
|
|
|
This repository is currently in **complete pre-production design**. Formal game
|
|
implementation, bulk final-asset production, packaging, and publishing are
|
|
forbidden until the owner approves the complete product, content, presentation,
|
|
balance, and interactive-design package.
|
|
|
|
## Current Product Boundary
|
|
|
|
- 30 named recruitable characters
|
|
- 12 base professions and 24 advanced professions
|
|
- 100 enemy combat identities across 8 chapters
|
|
- 320 equipment and item entries
|
|
- 25-35 hour first campaign, 60-80 hour build completion, roughly 100 hour
|
|
collection and high-difficulty completion target
|
|
- Landscape 16:9, premium cross-platform target, English and Simplified Chinese
|
|
- 2D Japanese hand-drawn presentation using layered rigs, equipment layers,
|
|
authored key poses, and unique portraits/illustrations
|
|
|
|
The game may learn structural lessons from authorized private reference
|
|
research, but its setting, characters, enemies, names, art, audio, UI,
|
|
progression, formulas, and expression must be original.
|
|
|
|
## Review The Design
|
|
|
|
The current owner-facing HTML in [`prototype/site/`](prototype/site/) is a
|
|
**coverage audit**, not a completed UI prototype. Owner review on 2026-08-10
|
|
proved that generic specification templates were not understandable as game
|
|
screens. Its page browser now distinguishes one dedicated page, 40 shared
|
|
family mockups, and 41 pages whose UI is still missing.
|
|
|
|
1. **Flow specification:** inspect the required 17-step title-to-restoration
|
|
order; do not treat it as a validated clickable experience.
|
|
2. **Eight chapters:** inspect route, battle, and restored-world direction for
|
|
every chapter.
|
|
3. **Page coverage:** inspect all 82 requirements and identify which screens
|
|
still need a dedicated composition.
|
|
4. **Content:** search all 30 characters, 36 professions, 100 enemies, 320
|
|
items, 48 achievements, and 20 collections.
|
|
5. **Production and readiness:** inspect the art/audio scope and the gates that
|
|
remain open before runtime development.
|
|
|
|
Run it locally from the repository root:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 -m http.server 8766 --directory prototype/site
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then open `http://127.0.0.1:8766`. The published Artifact Gallery link is a
|
|
disposable presentation copy; this repository remains the design authority.
|
|
|
|
Gallery publication must use the self-contained bundle because the Gallery
|
|
viewer intentionally sandboxes HTML and may not forward its access cookie to
|
|
relative CSS, JavaScript, JSON, or image requests:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 tools/build_gallery_bundle.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Evidence Boundary
|
|
|
|
The HTML is an interactive **design prototype**, not a playable build. Its four
|
|
AI-generated boards are concept direction only. The UI chrome and readable text
|
|
are authored in HTML; no concept board is a final background, sprite, item icon,
|
|
animation, integrated asset, runtime screenshot, or human-approved result.
|
|
|
|
See [`docs/README.md`](docs/README.md) for the complete authority map and
|
|
[`docs/reviews/PRE_DEVELOPMENT_READINESS_AUDIT.md`](docs/reviews/PRE_DEVELOPMENT_READINESS_AUDIT.md)
|
|
for the exact completed and open gates.
