Package Exports

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (bmad-game-dev-studio) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

BMad Game Dev Studio

BMGD brings BMad's structured development to game development. Create working prototypes quickly in Unity, Unreal, Godot—or any engine you choose.

About BMGD

BMad Game Dev Studio (BMGD) adapts the BMad Method framework for game development. Developed by game industry veterans, BMGD guides you through product research, technical design, narrative design, and a full epic-driven production cycle.

Supported Engines

BMGD has first-class support for:

Unity — C# scripting, industry-standard for many game types
Unreal Engine — Blueprint and C++, AAA powerhouse
Godot — Open-source, GDScript, rapidly growing

But you're not limited to these—BMGD works with any platform, from pure C to custom engines.

What You Can Create

BMGD supports 21 game types, including:

Genre	Examples
Action	Platformers, shooters, hack-and-slash
RPG	Action RPG, tactical RPG, dungeon crawlers
Strategy	Turn-based, RTS, tower defense
Simulation	Life sim, tycoon, management
Adventure	Visual novels, point-and-click, walking simulators
And more...	Survival, horror, puzzle, racing, etc.

What BMGD Does

Product Research — Market analysis, competitor research, positioning
Game Design Document — Comprehensive GDD with mechanics, progression, and balance
Narrative Design — Story structure, characters, dialogue, world-building
Technical Architecture — Engine patterns, performance considerations
Production Planning — Epic-driven sprints, story tracking, retrospectives
Quick Prototyping — Skip the planning, jump straight into building

What BMGD Doesn't Do

BMGD works with coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot—but it can't create everything:

Art assets (models, textures, sprites)
Animations
Music and sound effects
Full game implementation from scratch

Think of BMGD as your senior game dev colleague—not a replacement for your entire team.

Installation

BMGD is installed as a module during BMad Method setup:

npx bmad-method@alpha install

Select Game Dev Studio from the modules list.

Quick Start

After installing, run from your project root:

/bmgd-help          # Get guided help for game development
/bmgd-quick-dev     # Jump straight into prototyping
/bmgd-gdd           # Create a Game Design Document
/bmgd-narrative     # Design your game's story

Two Ways to Work

Approach	When to Use	Workflow
Quick Flow	Rapid prototyping, small projects	`/bmgd-quick-dev`
Full Production	Full games, teams, long-term	`/bmgd-help` for guided path

Example: Starting a New Game

You: /bmgd-help
BMGD: What kind of game are you making?
You: A tactical sci-fi RPG
BMGD: Great choice! Here's what I recommend...
    [Guides you through genre-specific planning]
