User Personas

• Explorer: Interested in exploring the open-world city and discovering new areas.
• Customizer: Focuses on personalizing characters and vehicles.
• Mission-Oriented Player: Engages primarily in completing missions and achieving goals.
• Social Player: Enjoys interacting with other players in multiplayer mode.

Core User Flows

• Explorer navigates the city -> discovers new areas -> interacts with NPCs -> completes side missions.
• Customizer selects a character -> personalizes appearance -> customizes vehicles -> saves changes.
• Mission-Oriented Player selects a mission -> completes objectives -> earns rewards -> progresses to the next mission.
• Social Player joins multiplayer mode -> interacts with friends -> participates in group missions -> communicates via in-game chat.

Visuals Colors and Theme

• primary: #2E3A59 (deep navy blue)
• primary_light: #4A5A7D (light navy blue)
• secondary: #E94E77 (vibrant pink)
• accent: #F9A825 (bright yellow)
• highlight: #FF7043 (warm orange)
• bg: #F5F5F5 (light grey)
• surface: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8) (semi-transparent white)
• text: #212121 (dark grey)
• text_muted: #757575 (muted grey)
• border: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) (light black)

Signature Design Concept

The Solar-System project will feature an interactive galaxy map as the homepage. Users will navigate through a 3D galaxy where each star represents a different feature or section of the game. By clicking on a star, users can access detailed information about that feature. The galaxy map will be interactive, allowing users to drag and rotate the cluster, with stars highlighting connections when hovered over. This concept will be implemented using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei for 3D interactions, providing an engaging and visually stunning first impression.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, creating a layered depth effect as users scroll through the page. Decorative elements such as atmospheric blobs and distant shapes will move at different speeds, enhancing the storytelling aspect of the project. Internal pages will maintain a "static" model to ensure clarity and readability, focusing on user experience and performance.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The system must support high-performance graphics rendering on Android devices.
• The system should ensure data security and user privacy.
• The system must provide a seamless and lag-free multiplayer experience.
• The system should be scalable to accommodate a growing user base.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web, React Native for mobile app
• Backend: Python, FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB
• AI Models: Not specified
• AI Tools: Not specified
• Local Orchestration: Docker, docker-compose
• Server-side Orchestration: Kubernetes

Assumptions and Constraints

• The project will primarily target Android devices for optimized performance.
• The system will require an internet connection for multiplayer features.
• The project will adhere to local regulations and standards in Pakistan.
