Design for the space available to play.

Physical environment

Define room size, movement expectations and play-space guidance.

Connected play

Shared anchors and multiplayer synchronization are separately scoped from a single-device game.

Questions before we start.

Can you add AR to an existing game?

Yes, when its content and rules adapt to spatial interaction. A prototype should test that fit before a full conversion.

Does every game need location access?

No. Tabletop and surface-based games can often work without geographic location; permissions follow the actual mechanics.

Bring your starting point.

Bring the core game loop, target devices and the intended playing environment.
