Product Overview
Designed for Creative Game Directors
Combines the freedom of mind mapping with the speed of markdown writing, tailored specifically for game development workflows.
Visual Mind Mapping Canvas
Map your game features as connected spider nodes. Establish clear dependencies (e.g. Combat connected to Weapons) by drawing visual threads.
Live Markdown Editor
A split-screen editing experience with handy writing shortcuts (bold, list, headings, code blocks) and real-time styled HTML previews.
AI Writing Templates
Context-aware outline cards (USPs, Combat Loop, Level Flow, Character Bios) loaded dynamically by node type to help you draft faster.
Keystroke Auto-Saving
Never lose details. Changes are saved automatically on every keystroke to local storage, keeping your document safe offline.
Unified GDD Compiler
Compile all mind map nodes into a single structured Markdown document sorted logically by section (Concept, Story, Mechanics, Levels, Art, etc.).
Brand Theme Switcher
Custom themes matching the WebSpider identity: Arachnid Red, Acid Green, and Cyber Blue. Toggle between Dark, Light, and System modes.
