Plan and Build
See a plan before anything is built, or build right away.
Updated
Next to the box where you describe your game there's a switch with two choices.
Plan
Looti first shows a short plan in the chat: the name, one line about the game, and what it will have. Read full plan opens all of it: how you play, the enemies, the controls, the look and sound.
- Select any part of the plan to change just that part. Looti rewrites it as a new version of the plan, and the arrows at the top go back to the earlier one.
- Build game builds it. Not now keeps the plan and builds nothing.
Build
Looti starts right away, with no plan to read first. Good for small, clear changes.
Plan is selected when you start. For a new game it's the better choice: a few seconds of reading saves a rebuild.
