+# Space Game — Project Overview
+
+## Concept
+
+A 2D pixel-art top-down space shooter inspired by **Subspace Continuum**, built for **Steam Deck and PC**. Three alien races fight for control of a galaxy. Fast matchmaking like Rocket League — quick in, quick out.
+
+## Core Loop
+
+1. Launch → Main Menu
+2. Enter callsign → click CASUAL
+3. World loads → pick your race (2 of 3 randomly offered per match) → pick your ship
+4. Fight in a 25v25 battle
+5. Return to main menu
+
+## Game Modes
+
+| Mode | Size | Status |
+|------|------|--------|
+| Casual | 25v25 (bots fill to 7v7 minimum) | In progress |
+| Ranked | 5v5, competitive MMR | Disabled — coming later |
+
+## Current Game Flow (as built)
+
+```
+Main Menu
+  └─ CASUAL ──► World loads immediately (game active)
+                  └─ TeamSelect overlay appears
+                       ├─ Pick race  (2 random of 3 offered)
+                       └─ Pick ship  (4 available, sprites shown)
+                            └─ Player spawns centred, invincible briefly
+                                 └─ ESC / Start ──► Pause menu overlay
+                                      ├─ RESUME
+                                      ├─ SETTINGS (stub)
+                                      ├─ SELECT TEAM (stub)
+                                      ├─ QUIT TO MENU
+                                      └─ QUIT TO DESKTOP
+```
+
+## Races
+
+3 playable races chosen from a pool of 10 concepts — see `racesclasses.md`. Each race has 5 ship classes:
+
+| Class | Role |
+|-------|------|
+| Interceptor | Fast, agile generalist |
+| Bomber | Area damage, slow |
+| Support | Heal/rally; allies can attach |
+| Stealth | Assassin, hit-and-run |
+| Heavy | Tank, massive firepower |
+
+Races are visually distinct — critical for reading a 25v25 battlefield at a glance.
+
+## Match Setup
+
+- Each match randomly picks **2 of the 3 races** to field
+- Player picks which of those 2 they fight for, then picks their ship
+- Bot fill ensures a minimum of **7v7** in casual; no bots added beyond that
+
+## Design Philosophy
+
+- Maps inspired by CSGO — tight, intentional, not the sprawling Subspace Trench Wars layout
+- 10 maps at launch (small for ranked, medium/large for casual)
+- All art: pixel art
+- Platform primary: Steam Deck (1280×800, controller-first)
