Prize Runners<\/strong><\/em> is a trading card game developed over the course of an entire semester, focused on creating a complete game system and visual identity. The core objective of the game is simple and direct: players win by knocking out their opponent\u2019s prize card, making strategy and card interaction central to gameplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brand identity is built around a bold purple and gold color scheme, reinforcing the theme of competition and reward. The game system features six main color types, each corresponding to a color used in the game icon and representing a different category of cards, with rare cards operating outside of this standard color structure. This system helps organize gameplay while creating clear visual distinction between card types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All characters were hand-drawn, then digitized and prepared for print, emphasizing a handcrafted aesthetic within a structured design framework. This project combines illustration, branding, and system-based design to create a cohesive and fully realized card game experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
