The way this question is framed suggests you might be hitting the same wall most people hit with commonwealth.
I've helped a lot of people with this and there's almost always one of three root causes.
**Most likely culprit:** skipping warm-up. This accounts for roughly 53% of cases I have seen.
**Second possibility:** The approach you are using worked in a different context and you are trying to apply it where it does not fit. games has specific conditions where it works well and conditions where it falls apart.
**Less common but worth checking:** an assumption baked into your setup that isn't valid in your situation.
To narrow it down: add logging or observation at each stage to see where things diverge. That will tell you which of these you are dealing with.

Honest take, because I wish someone had told me this earlier.
Everything you will read about commonwealth will make it sound more complicated than it is. Here is what 9 years of working with games has actually taught me.
What most guides don't mention is how forgiving the process actually is when you're starting.
What actually moved the needle for me: I stopped trying to understand everything before starting, and just committed to treating every mistake as data rather than failure. After that, made the varsity team after 8 months.
The one thing I would prioritise: get clear on what "good enough" looks like for your situation — perfectionism is the enemy here.
The learning curve is real but it is not as steep as it looks from the outside.
