The Good, the Cat,
and the Vicious

Solitaire Card Game (November-December 2022)

Made in Unity with 3 teammates, over 4 weeks

Team Details

My Role

I implemented the functionality of the card abilities (for both the player and the AI opponent), implemented the core gameplay (such as the turn structure and the school test), and other miscellaneous features.

Game Details

Manage Stats

You have to end the level with more Hotness than your AI opponent. One way to gain Hotness is to use your Brain Cells to score higher on daily school tests.

Play Cards

Each turn, you draw 5 cards and may play up to 3 of them. Your cards can also gain you Hotness and Intelligence, although sometimes they have downsides.

Eldritchness

Cards you play will make you more Eldritch over time. To reduce your Eldritchness, you'll have to create and consume Catnip Elixir cards.

Retrospective

While I think the current game is not very replayable (because it only has 1 level), it has a lot of potential to be expanded upon, with more cards and more ways of interacting with the AI opponent. I was also very happy with my teammates, who were able to fill in for weak spots in game design (art, animation, etc.), which is why this game looks more polished than my solo projects.
