Living Universe Online — Ideas

This site collects internal design exploration for Living Universe Online (LUO). It is for the team, not players.

Nothing here is final. Ideas are rough directions the team might pursue or discard.

What This Documentation Covers

  • Ideas — early design exploration, open questions, and rough directions not yet committed
  • Glossary — shared terminology used throughout all documents

Stage Definitions

Ideas are exploratory and internal. They capture a design problem or direction worth thinking through. They may contain competing options and unresolved questions. An idea does not commit the team to anything.

When the team decides to build a scoped slice of an idea, that slice is defined on the Game wiki (Docs/Game/docs/wiki/) as confirmed, player-facing behavior and shipped together with the implementation.
