Gameplay requirements

Beyond technical standards, every game must deliver a baseline quality of player experience.

Core experience

• ✓ Game must have a distinct objective or progression system
• ✓ Audio must be user-controllable (mute option required)
• ✓ No autoplaying audio before user interaction
• ✓ NSFW or inappropriate content is strictly prohibited

Multiplayer titles

• ✓ Server infrastructure must support the anticipated player count
• ✓ Latency must not significantly degrade the core game loop
• ✓ Graceful handling of disconnects and reconnects
