Technical producer focus
Turn the purchase into named states and transitions. Separate the player-facing prototype from identity, persistence, native billing, security, and refund work.

Technical Producer Guide to Koin Purchase Recovery for PWA Games
Use a browser-based playable build to work through purchase recovery for PWA games. The goal is to make the player journey concrete before the team commits to native commerce implementation.
Create this game flow
Define the PWA games scope
Platform context
Design for the input, layout, interruption, and return behavior players expect from PWA games.
Prototype boundary
PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
Purchase Recovery in practice
Starting state
Show one item the player may decline, its preview, precise Koin price, balance before spending, and ownership rule in a layout suited to PWA games.
Main task
Write how to handle reloads, interrupted delivery, duplicate clicks, and insufficient Koin without double granting. Keep each change visible to the player rather than hiding it in technical state.
Recovery
Make a cancelled choice, a Koin shortage, pending, interrupted delivery, and reload visually distinct, with a safe next action.
Role decision
Map preview, confirmation, cancellation, not enough Koin, pending, success, delivery, owned, and reload. Give every failure a safe next action. Use the prototype to resolve player-facing questions before creating platform integration tasks.
Solve the purchase recovery details
Design install and browser modes
For a technical producer, this purchase recovery prototype should make every player action and result shown in the game easy to evaluate. Write how to handle reloads, interrupted delivery, duplicate clicks, and insufficient Koin without double granting. Map preview, confirmation, a cancelled choice, an insufficient balance, pending, success, delivery, owned, and reload. Give every failure a safe next action. Try the flow in a regular tab and an installed presentation. Navigation, focus, and recovery should remain understandable even when browser controls are reduced or the app resumes from suspension.
Treat offline state explicitly
An unavailable connection must not look like a completed purchase. Explain when the action cannot continue, preserve the game state, and provide a safe retry after connectivity returns.
Do not imply native entitlement
PWA installation does not create platform IAP ownership. Durable identity, cross-device state, refunds, billing integration, and app-store policy remain outside the browser prototype.
Name every state and owner
Separate preview, confirmation, pending, success, delivery, owned, insufficient Koin, cancel, interrupted, and reopened states. Assign later production work for identity, persistence, native billing, security, refunds, policy, and monitoring.
Define idempotent recovery
Repeated confirmation, a slow response, navigation during delivery, and reopening must resolve to one result. Record which state is authoritative and how the player can safely retry without another grant or Koin deduction.
Turn the prototype into tickets
Capture the visible behavior first, then create implementation tasks with expected examples for each transition and platform boundary. Do not translate a working browser interaction into an unsupported claim that backend commerce is complete.
Keep pending understandable
If delivery is interrupted, explain whether the result is pending, safe to retry, or already complete. Do not show both failure and success. Test that behavior using PWA games. PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
Make retry idempotent
Repeated clicks and reloads should resolve to one purchase result. The player must never receive duplicate items or lose Koin twice. Test that behavior using PWA games. PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
Return to a safe game state
A cancelled choice, an insufficient balance, and recoverable errors should preserve progress and offer a clear return or retry action. Test that behavior using PWA games. PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
Prototype the player journey
1. Set the platform context
Choose the input and screen behavior for PWA games. State the platform limit beside the prototype brief.
Result: An honest scope
2. Map purchase recovery
Write how to handle reloads, interrupted delivery, duplicate clicks, and insufficient Koin without double granting. Describe the player action and visible response at each point.
Result: A clear purchase recovery sequence
3. Add the Koin choice
Show the item, exact price, balance, confirm, cancel, pending, success, and delivery without payment-provider screens.
Result: A complete player journey
4. Apply the technical producer lens
Map preview, confirmation, a cancelled choice, a Koin shortage, pending, success, delivery, owned, and reload. Give every failure a safe next action.
Result: Technical producer focus
5. Test return and recovery
Interrupt delivery, repeat the input, and reload. The prototype should never grant twice or leave the player in an unexplained state. Repeat the test after interruption and reload.
Result: A stable prototype
Generate the PWA games prototype
Prompt 1
Create installable web presentation and offline-aware states for a technical producer. Focus the IAP prototype on handle reloads, interrupted delivery, duplicate clicks, and insufficient Koin without double granting. Use a direct Koin item transaction with preview, exact price, confirmation, cancel, insufficient balance, success, delivery, and reload behavior. The technical producer must be able to name every state, owner, failure path, and expected check. Do not add subscriptions, payment-provider UI, revenue analytics, or native platform claims. State this boundary: PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
Prompt 2
Keep the item optional. Show its clearly stated Koin cost, available Koin balance, confirm, cancel, low-balance, success, visible delivery, and reload states.
Technical Producer test checklist
- The purchase recovery sequence feels natural for PWA games.
- The technical producer can make the intended decision from the playable result.
- The item, Koin price, and balance appear prior to confirming.
- Cancel, a Koin shortage, pending, success, and reload have different outcomes.
- The page states this boundary: PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
- Interrupt delivery, repeat the input, and reload. The prototype should never grant twice or leave the player in an unexplained state.
Limits for PWA games
- PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
- This guide uses a direct Koin transaction for one optional game item. It does not create a subscription or recurring charge.
- The result is a browser-based playable build. Native billing, identity, durable entitlements, security, refunds, and store approval need separate implementation.
- SEELE does not provide payment analytics, tax tools, payout reports, or guaranteed revenue through this flow.
Frequently asked questions
What does purchase recovery mean here?
Write how to handle reloads, interrupted delivery, duplicate clicks, and insufficient Koin without double granting. The result is shown as a playable Koin flow.
Is this a subscription?
No. The player spends Koin directly on one named item or unlock.
What happens if the player cancels?
Return to the same game state without spending Koin or delivering the item.
What if the Koin balance is too low?
Explain the shortage, preserve progress, and do not deliver the item.
Does this include payment or revenue reports?
No. It covers the player-facing purchase experience, not financial reporting.
Is the prototype ready for a native store?
No. PWA packaging does not create native platform IAP entitlements.
