Details
From the project READMERust Game Polish Release
Use this skill to finish a small Rust game without destabilizing the MVP. Lock the playable loop first, then package assets, run release checks, and add only the polish that improves clarity or shareability.
Core Workflow
- Confirm the MVP loop is playable from launch to win/loss or exit.
- Freeze core mechanics before adding content and visual polish.
- Verify resources load from the release layout.
- Run formatting, linting, tests, and release build commands.
- Smoke test controls, restart, level transitions, and exit behavior.
- Write a small release checklist instead of making last-minute architecture changes.
