Cats vs. Cucumbers
Background
Our assignment was to create a concept for a card game in Visual Communication & Interaction Design class. Everyone started with a basic card type to work with and we had to create our own idea and art for the cards. I had decided to do a medieval theme on the internet meme of cats being frightened by cucumbers. I figured that it was a concept that would feel humorous but also put into a time period that many people enjoy. The background of the cards is that the cats are the normal species that ruled the lands but the cucumber people appeared after an experiment gone wrong by a cat wizard that created a whole new species. The final project was to create a possible idea of a video game based on the idea that you used. Below I made a diagram of a potential medieval multiplayer game where you choose between being a cat or cucumber. All the art that I did for the cards was on Adobe Illustrator.

Front
These were the designs that I had come up with. The idea was medieval cats versus cucumbers that were created by magic.
Back
This was just a simple back design for the cards.
Diagram
We had to create a diagram the game in digital form. I decided that it would look like PVP with teams but with medieval combat.
