Project Overview
About the Project
Mulligan Keep is a cooperative deck-building roguelike where visual clarity was critical because players constantly manage cards, combat information, and cooperative interactions. My responsibility was to create a consistent visual language that balanced readability with the game's fantasy atmosphere.

My Role
As the project 2D artist, I owned the visual production of the card system, including illustrations, UI frames, card backs, iconography, and branding assets. I worked closely with designers to ensure gameplay readability while maintaining a cohesive fantasy aesthetic throughout the game.
