A real card-deploy match takes minutes. The playable is a scripted mini-story instead: one strong enemy, two or three cards, three crowns.

What makes a arena battler playable work

From the studio’s arena battler playbook: the rules the agents load before they build, and what went wrong in earlier builds.

  1. 01

    Few units, big units

    Two to four units on the board, a normal one 10 to 12% of the screen height. An earlier version with 20 to 30 tiny units looked like ants.

  2. 02

    Ask for the counter

    One strong enemy crosses the bridge, and a glowing drop zone shows where to answer it.

  3. 03

    One painted arena

    Cliffs, river, bridges and tower pads in one image, zoomed in so the arena fills the screen. Tiles and flat checkered grass looked cheap.

  4. 04

    Smooth, not a slideshow

    Arena Duel’s units are rigged 3D models baked into 8-direction sprite sheets, with a short attack clip played at full frame rate.

A 30-second beat sheet

What the player sees, in order. A playable that hits these beats ends before attention runs out.

Arena battler starter prompt
Make an arena battler playable ad for my game: <your store link>. A painted arena; a heavy knight crosses the bridge and the player answers from three cards (a giant, archers, a fireball) dropped on a glowing zone. Few, big units, three crowns in about 30 seconds, then the end card.

One build, 10 exports

Every arena battler build exports as a single file with its art, sound and libraries inside, packaged for each network.
