About
Economy Balancing
Purpose
Design and tune currencies, sinks, rewards, prices, and inflation control so the economy supports progression and retention.
Use When
- the game has currencies, crafting, shop systems, or upgrade economies
- reward pacing feels too generous or too punishing
- live tuning is required
Inputs
- progression model
- reward sources
- sink list
- target session and retention goals
Process
- define currency roles and allowed flows
- map sources, sinks, and exchange paths
- set baseline values and anti-inflation controls
- identify abuse cases, softlocks, and over-reward loops
- instrument economy-critical events for monitoring
Outputs
- economy model
- balance sheet
- source/sink matrix
- tuning plan
Quality Bar
- supports the core fantasy and player goals
- defines readable rules, edge cases, and feedback
- creates concrete hooks for tuning, telemetry, and QA
Common Failure Modes
- adding systems that do not serve the core loop
- shipping vague rules that QA and engineering must guess at
- tuning without instrumentation or hypotheses
