+# Game Development BMAD Knowledge Base
+
+## Overview
+
+This game development expansion of BMAD-METHOD specializes in creating 2D games using Phaser 3 and TypeScript. It extends the core BMAD framework with game-specific agents, workflows, and best practices for professional game development.
+
+### Game Development Focus
+
+- **Target Engine**: Phaser 3.70+ with TypeScript 5.0+
+- **Platform Strategy**: Web-first with mobile optimization
+- **Development Approach**: Agile story-driven development
+- **Performance Target**: 60 FPS on target devices
+- **Architecture**: Component-based game systems
+
+## Core Game Development Philosophy
+
+### Player-First Development
+
+You are developing games as a "Player Experience CEO" - thinking like a game director with unlimited creative resources and a singular vision for player enjoyment. Your AI agents are your specialized game development team:
+
+- **Direct**: Provide clear game design vision and player experience goals
+- **Refine**: Iterate on gameplay mechanics until they're compelling
+- **Oversee**: Maintain creative alignment across all development disciplines
+- **Playfocus**: Every decision serves the player experience
+
+### Game Development Principles
+
+1. **PLAYER_EXPERIENCE_FIRST**: Every mechanic must serve player engagement and fun
+2. **ITERATIVE_DESIGN**: Prototype, test, refine - games are discovered through iteration
+3. **TECHNICAL_EXCELLENCE**: 60 FPS performance and cross-platform compatibility are non-negotiable
+4. **STORY_DRIVEN_DEV**: Game features are implemented through detailed development stories
+5. **BALANCE_THROUGH_DATA**: Use metrics and playtesting to validate game balance
+6. **DOCUMENT_EVERYTHING**: Clear specifications enable proper game implementation
+7. **START_SMALL_ITERATE_FAST**: Core mechanics first, then expand and polish
+8. **EMBRACE_CREATIVE_CHAOS**: Games evolve - adapt design based on what's fun
+
+## Game Development Workflow
+
+### Phase 1: Game Concept and Design
+
+1. **Game Designer**: Start with brainstorming and concept development
+
+   - Use \*brainstorm to explore game concepts and mechanics
+   - Create Game Brief using game-brief-tmpl
+   - Develop core game pillars and player experience goals
+
+2. **Game Designer**: Create comprehensive Game Design Document
+
+   - Use game-design-doc-tmpl to create detailed GDD
+   - Define all game mechanics, progression, and balance
+   - Specify technical requirements and platform targets
+
+3. **Game Designer**: Develop Level Design Framework
+   - Create level-design-doc-tmpl for content guidelines
+   - Define level types, difficulty progression, and content structure
+   - Establish performance and technical constraints for levels
+
+### Phase 2: Technical Architecture
+
+4. **Solution Architect** (or Game Designer): Create Technical Architecture
+   - Use game-architecture-tmpl to design technical implementation
+   - Define Phaser 3 systems, performance optimization, and code structure
+   - Align technical architecture with game design requirements
+
+### Phase 3: Story-Driven Development
+
+5. **Game Scrum Master**: Break down design into development stories
+
+   - Use create-game-story task to create detailed implementation stories
+   - Each story should be immediately actionable by game developers
+   - Apply game-story-dod-checklist to ensure story quality
+
+6. **Game Developer**: Implement game features story by story
+
+   - Follow TypeScript strict mode and Phaser 3 best practices
+   - Maintain 60 FPS performance target throughout development
+   - Use test-driven development for game logic components
+
+7. **Iterative Refinement**: Continuous playtesting and improvement
+   - Test core mechanics early and often
+   - Validate game balance through metrics and player feedback
+   - Iterate on design based on implementation discoveries
