## Design System (ENFORCED)

### Colors
```typescript
const gameColors = {
  fire: { primary: '#f97316', glow: 'rgba(249,115,22,0.3)' },
  water: { primary: '#22d3ee', glow: 'rgba(34,211,238,0.3)' },
  earth: { primary: '#d97706', glow: 'rgba(217,119,6,0.3)' },
  wind: { primary: '#a78bfa', glow: 'rgba(167,139,250,0.3)' },
  void: { primary: '#a855f7', glow: 'rgba(168,85,247,0.3)' },

  ui: {
    bg: '#020617',      // slate-950
    card: '#0f172a',    // slate-900
    border: '#334155',  // slate-700
    text: '#f8fafc',    // slate-50
    muted: '#94a3b8',   // slate-400
  }
}
```

### Typography
```css
font-family: 'Inter', system-ui, sans-serif;
font-feature-settings: 'ss01', 'ss02', 'cv01';
```

### Spacing
```
4px, 8px, 12px, 16px, 24px, 32px, 48px, 64px, 96px
```

### Border Radius
```
sm: 6px, md: 8px, lg: 12px, xl: 16px, 2xl: 24px
```

## Component Library

Pre-built game UI components:

```tsx
// Health/Mana bars with animation
<GameBar value={health} max={100} color="fire" />

// Skill cooldown indicator
<CooldownRing skill={fireblast} />

// Achievement popup
<AchievementToast achievement={firstVictory} />

// Leaderboard entry
<LeaderboardRow rank={1} player={user} score={47800} />

// Game card for portal
<GameCard
  title="Fire Dodge"
  element="fire"
  thumbnail="/games/fire-dodge.webp"
  status="playable"
/>
```

---

## Workflow

```
1. /arcanea-game-development new [name]
   └── Scaffold from template

2. Design phase
   └── Lyria + Thalia create visual direction

3. Mechanics phase
   └── Draconia + Velora implement core loop

4. Polish phase
   └── All teams add juice, sounds, effects

5. Test phase
   └── Lyssandria + Endara ensure quality

6. Deploy phase
   └── Ino coordinates launch
```
