We are building our horror game’s core, and a side product emerged: PsyFramework — a browser-based screening prototype we use to model player-facing psyche mechanics.

Highlights:

  • locale-routed methodologies: JA → ICD-10, EN → ICD-11, UK → DSM-5-TR;
  • weighted two-core-minimum scoring;
  • guidance surfacing for triggers, fears, and irritants;
  • hexagonal architecture across core, application, config, i18n, and presentation layers;
  • ES-module runtime;
  • BEM UI;
  • transparent, config-driven logic.
