Is it a game yet?

Your AI fills in a game card from the real code of your game: goal, action, resistance, feedback, outcome, and a reason to play again. For each it names the place in the code and a short way for you to see it in the game. The check then walks the game's loop and tells you whether it can be won, lost and never gets stuck, and whether you built extras before the core.

When you need it

When you are not sure your project is a game yet or still a toy, and whenever new features keep coming while the core is not done. Check after each bigger change and watch the count of core parts go up.

Say this to your AI

Check with Spielerando whether my project is a game yet. Fill in the game card from my real code, name the place in the code for every part, give me a short way to see each one in the game, and tell me what is missing first.

The code of this recipe goes only to a connected AI. Connected to Spielerando, your AI gets it with its tests and puts it into your game.Connect your AI

bonus (again): The sixth question, a reason to play again, is a bonus: a game without it is still a game, so it never decides the verdict.

Common questions

is my project a game yet

It is a game when the player has a goal, does something again and again, can fail, sees at once whether a move worked, and the game can be won or lost. Your AI checks each of these against your code and shows you where it is.

how do i stop adding features before my game is done

Mark every feature as core, later or cut. The check warns you when something marked for later is built while the core is still missing.

can a check tell me if my game is fun

No. It checks the parts of a game, not the fun. Only players can tell that, so test with real people and measure where they quit.
