Show Off is a collectable card game (CCG) with a fashion theme that we created for Glorious Games Group.
I was the lead game designer and in charge of balancing all the cards and progression in the game, as well as keeping track of the overall game design.

The Concept
(First-version-paper-prototype cards)
When coming up with the concept for Show Off we tried to make a non-stereotypical, fashion themed game. We decided to make a CCG and I started out by making a paper prototype which we play-tested in our pre-prod.
It was very important to me that I could start balancing the cards as soon as possible and this prototype gave me a head start!

The core
The game is centred around 3 judges that requests different styles and themes from the players. Matching the judges requests rewards the player with extra point, but holding on to cards while cowardly waiting for the right request to appear gives the opponent a chance to score extra points.
Players can unlock new cards and create their own deck in order to find their way to become a true show off!

At the end of the project I worked with the AB flow for the game’s on-boarding. I also made mock-ups of the tutorial for the art and code teams to make sure everyone understood the different steps that we needed to implement.
