Living Rooms prototype
Create Room
Build the first seed bundle for a multiplayer micro-AI home: consent, exterior, mood, labels, goals, notifications, and the deeper inspector state.

Consent gate
Rooms are for adults. Seeds are stored remotely. Personalization can get deep, and personal information is not guaranteed secure.
Art direction
HD 16-bit content packs
Rooms should become animated isometric sprite packs: crisp pixel homes, tiny looping effects, adaptive borders, avatar bodies, pets, props, and rewards. Alternate renderers reuse that same seed as physical miniature, paper craft, or cel-shaded animation while preserving the exact lot grid.
Paper Diorama
The same 16-bit art paperified: lifted cutout layers, warm stock, richer shadows, and miniature set lighting.
Real-Life Miniature
A photo-style physical model theme: macro lens, real materials, handmade props, dust, glass, fabric, and studio light.
Cel-Shaded
A clean animated look with bold planes, inked edges, simple shadows, and the same isometric lot geometry.

Lot grid draft
Shared footprint lock
Resetting the lock: every room starts as one uniform `50x50x150` map chunk. Each grid cube now represents `5` world units instead of a looser `10`-unit cube. Neighborhoods can permit horizontal expansion into adjacent chunks; otherwise rooms grow upward or subterranean without breaking the public grid.
Map chunk
50x50x150
Canonical spatial unit for every room, renderer, and future 3D model.
Grid cube
5 units
Each cell represents 5 world units for finer modeling scale than a 10-unit cube.
World span
250x250x750
The full chunk area after applying the 5-unit cell scale.
Ground plane
50x50
Uniform square yard footprint for home, paths, props, and borders.
Owner core
40x40
Central build zone fully controlled by the room owner.
Board rhythm
2:1 isometric
Grid steps stay diamond-aligned across districts.
Buffer zone
5-cell edge
Shared visual edge where ownership can blend without changing grid math.
Blend language
foliage/paths/props
Grass, vines, cables, stones, shadows, lights, and objects can cross the border.
Same owner
merge estate
Adjacent owned cells render as one continuous yard with no visible boundary.
Lateral growth
+50 chunks
Allowed only when the neighborhood grants open neighboring chunks.
Vertical growth
z chunks
If lateral growth is blocked, expand upward or subterranean.
Levels
150-high column
Reserve tall vertical space for floors, basements, towers, roots, and tunnels.
Yard framework
Soft ownership edges
The chunk stays uniform for placement, but the visible yard can breathe. Ownership is mathematically square; the outer five cells are where the art direction blends across edges when allowed.
owner core
shared buffer
neighbor bleed
Core ownership
The center cell belongs to the owner and holds the home, primary yard, trophy slot, and private growth markers.
Blend buffer
The outer edge is visual negotiation space: foliage, paths, cables, fog, petals, light spill, and small props can overlap.
Neighbor mix
Different owners keep their coordinates, but styles can handshake in the buffer so the board feels alive instead of boxed.
Same-owner merge
Adjacent cells owned by the same room render as one larger estate, removing the internal buffer line entirely.
Blocked expansion
When no adjacent cell is available, unlock upper floors, basements, tunnels, roots, towers, or sky rooms instead.
Paper Diorama mode
Asset-led paper dioramas
This is the new quality bar: each pack should become a real art asset first, with the home and yard built from physical paper, careful joinery, macro lighting, and true cast shadows. The generated Paper Unicorn Cottage sets the standard for the rest.
Canvas

Camera
3/4 isometric
Base
uniform expandable tile
Scale
home, yard, border, props
Swap
16-bit, paper, future styles
Paper stock
soft fibers, warmer whites, visible grain
Ink edges

Lifted layers
thin shadows under roofs, walls, yards, props
Diorama light

Tiny gloss
small highlights on glass, chrome, wax, plastic
Reference standard
Paper Unicorn Cottage, single-lot format.
Remaining packs
Same style, now normalize each pack onto the same lot size.
Format placeholders

Blood-Moon Vampire Commune
clustered chapel pieces, wax lanterns, thorn paper fence
cut C
Neon Junkyard Lab
stacked scrap walls, antenna mast, cable coils, tool bench
cut D
Haunted Greenhouse
transparent paper panes, vine strips, leaning glass roof
cut E
Chrome Angel Trailer
long trailer shell, foil panels, halo sign, desert paper grit
cut F
Abandoned Arcade Shrine
cabinet shrine stack, marquee paper, tokens, light strips
Paper Unicorn Cottage
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Blood-Moon Vampire Commune
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Neon Junkyard Lab
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Haunted Greenhouse
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Chrome Angel Trailer
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Abandoned Arcade Shrine
Keep the 16-bit home bones, then rebuild them from cut paper layers instead of filtering a flat source image.
Theme expansion
Photo and cel passes
Both new themes are renderer skins over the same seed. The house, yard, buffer, trophy slots, and future 3D capture angles stay identical to the approved grid.
real_life_photo
Real-Life Miniature
A believable photographed scale model of the same room seed, built like a physical tabletop set.
Camera
macro lens, three-quarter isometric, same 50x50x150 calibration markers
Finish
painted wood, resin, fabric, dust, glass, wire, foam terrain, real cast shadows
Macro lens
shallow depth, real bokeh falloff, lens compression
Scale model build
painted basswood, foam, resin, cloth, tiny glass
Natural wear
dust, scuffs, glue seams, fingerprints, chipped paint
Studio shadow
single believable key light and soft tabletop bounce
cel_shaded
Cel-Shaded
A clean animated-series renderer with crisp ink lines, bold color planes, and readable 3D forms.
Camera
locked isometric game camera, same lot footprint, same vertical expansion column
Finish
flat colors, intentional outlines, hard shadows, simplified highlights, strong silhouettes
Ink outline
confident contour lines, no sketch noise
Flat color
large readable planes tied to pack palettes
Hard shadow
one or two crisp shadow values per object
Animated clarity
expressive motion without texture clutter
