🎯 KEY DECISIONS MADE:
1. Visual Style Choice:
Decision: Smooth 2D modern art (NOT pixel art) Reason: Better visibility, modern look, professional quality Impact: Complete sprite regeneration
2. Scale Strategy:
Decision: Use HUGE base sprites (1024x1024) at scale 1.0 Reason: Better quality than small sprites at high scale Impact: All sprites regenerated
3. Asset Management:
Decision: Clean slate - remove all, add one-by-one Reason: Too many conflicting/broken sprites Impact: Fresh start with quality control
4. Namespace Refactor:
Decision: Plan but postpone to post-1.0 Reason: Not critical for beta, high time investment Impact: Documented for future
5. Translation:
Decision: Identify but postpone Reason: Focus on gameplay/visuals first Impact: 130+ instances logged for later
