PROJECT 03 \u00b7 EARLY GAME CONCEPT<\/p>

Frontline Command<\/h2>

Build, defend and decide when to advance.<\/p>

COMMAND \u00b7 ARMY \u00b7 STRATEGIC<\/strong>
Single-player real-time strategy \/ PC \/ Proposed session: 6\u20138 minutes<\/p>

Lead a small fictional force, collect resources and build a compact base. Balance defence and expansion before committing to an attack on the rival headquarters.<\/p><\/section>\n

01 \/ The player experience<\/h2>

You are a commander responsible for a base and a small group of units. Resources are limited, so every new building or unit delays another opportunity. A clear view of the battlefield matters as much as army size.<\/p>

Player goal:<\/strong> Protect your headquarters and destroy the rival headquarters.
Emotional goal:<\/strong> Feel that a victory follows from a clear plan and a well-timed decision.<\/p><\/section>\n

Real-world visual research<\/h2>
