Individual skill

game-dev-combat-skill-polish

Score a game's combat skills and spells out of 10 with blind judges, then raise the weakest to a bar, for timing and readability (does a skill read as itself, does the blow land when it lands) and for art (detail, light, trails, impact, art direction, judged against a reference such as Diablo IV). Covers filming casts on a stopped, stepped clock, contact strips and close-ups, anonymised two-judge rounds, the levers that moved scores (hero props made from a painted concept with image-to-3D, own schedules and keyed moves, painted additive textures, camera-facing ribbons, light outside the body), the traps that cost points, asset and load budgets, and shipping each skill as its own version. Use when the user asks to score, review, improve, polish or rebuild combat skills, spells or attacks; says a skill "doesn't make sense", "looks bad" or should look like another game; names a target score; or starts a "next skill" thread. Project specifics (review hooks, harness settings, where each skill's code lives, scores so far) go in an optional local references/<project>.md next to this skill.
