Tiger - Project Briefing

Last updated: 2026-03-13

Current Project State

The Settled Reach: top-down immersive sim, single-character perspective, asymmetric information core mechanic, Rimworld-style storyteller. 137+ confirmed decisions. Where's the Fun? Workshop complete (2026-03-05). v0.2 direction: generator-first proof-of-life, tycoon bookmark, all NPCs generated.

Status

STANDBY. This briefing will be populated when localization work begins.

Key Decisions for Your Domain

  • D-016: Internal monologue system - localization of character voice and personality through text
  • D-021: Official title "The Settled Reach"
  • Q-008: Licensing (open question - affects localization scope and supported languages)
  • D-028: Tagged line pool dialogue system — Localization advantages: each line is tagged with context metadata (access tier, relationship level, trust threshold, mood). Translators receive rich context. Lines are pooled, not tree-branched — translation scope is predictable.
  • D-035: Converged tag taxonomy (6+3) — 9 tags per line provide rich context for translators. 13 situations, 9 topics, 8 moods. Translation scope predictable from pool size.
  • D-036: Sova Transit District / Van Maanen's Star — Van Maanen's Star naming conventions (compact, consonant-heavy). Localization note: proper nouns and slang terms need transliteration guides per target language.
  • D-121: Voice is culture-driven, job as modifier — localization implication: culture voice cards are the primary translation unit, not individual NPC profiles. Single tycoon character type in v0.2 (D-117) reduces monologue translation scope vs. prior smuggler/detective dual-pool model (D-032 superseded for v0.2).
