DonchitosandClaude Opus 5.5 b21fa0f7f2 Release 1.1.2 — the default path works end to end
Fix release for 1.1.1: the minimal path end to end, engine commands that
run on Godot, Unity and Unreal, hook warnings you can see, and verdicts
that say when they could not check. Details in CHANGELOG.md; upgrade
steps in UPGRADING.md (v1.1.1 → v1.1.2).

AD-CONCEPT-VISUAL — Visual Identity Anchor

Agent: art-director | Model tier: session (inherit) | Domain: Visual identity, art bible, visual production readiness

Trigger: After game pillars are locked (brainstorm Phase 4), in parallel with CD-PILLARS

Context to pass:

  • Game concept (elevator pitch, core fantasy, unique hook)
  • Full pillar set with names, definitions, and design tests
  • Target platform (if known)
  • Any reference games or visual touchstones mentioned by the user

Prompt:

"Based on these game pillars and core concept, propose 2-3 distinct visual identity directions. For each direction provide: (1) a one-line visual rule that could guide all visual decisions (e.g., 'everything must move', 'beauty is in the decay'), (2) mood and atmosphere targets, (3) shape language (sharp/rounded/organic/geometric emphasis), (4) color philosophy (palette direction, what colors mean in this world). Be specific — avoid generic descriptions. One direction should directly serve the primary design pillar. Name each direction. Recommend which best serves the stated pillars and explain why."

Verdicts: CONCEPTS (multiple valid options — user selects) / STRONG (one direction clearly dominant) / CONCERNS (pillars don't provide enough direction to differentiate visual identity yet — name each pillar that gives none, and which of the four elements above it leaves open)
