Tips and Strategies

  • Bottleneck analysis wins games. Find the system that limits your output and fix that one first, even if other areas also need work.
  • When you hit a wall, look for a mechanic you are underusing. The game usually gives you the tools before the challenge that requires them.
  • Compare your approach to the default starting state. Understanding what the game gives you for free versus what you need to build tells you the designer's intended progression.
  • When a new mechanic appears, use it immediately in a low-pressure situation. Build familiarity before the game puts you in a spot where you need it.
  • Steady, clean play usually beats aggressive, risky play. Consistency compounds over time, and avoiding mistakes matters more than chasing big moments.
  • Figure out what ends your runs most often. The most common failure point is usually the most valuable thing to improve.
  • Try the opposite of what keeps failing. If you are playing aggressively and dying, play defensively. If you are playing cautiously and timing out, push forward. The answer is often the reverse of your instinct.
