πŸ— Development Approach

Hybrid-Prototyping-First with Evolutionary Scaling:
πŸ”₯ Core mechanics are prototyped early, ensuring rapid validation before deeper optimization.
πŸ”₯ Iterative refinement follows structured phases, scaling asymmetric multiplayer organically.
πŸ”₯ AI-driven security evolution allows adaptive defense strategies that react dynamically to player tactics.
πŸ”₯ Containerized infrastructure (Podman) ensures multiplayer expansion is scalable and fault-tolerant.
