Card Generator

A friend of mine was working on a his own card game, and I thought it would be fun to make a Unity project that would generate his cards for him.

​

He had all the card names and effects written in an Excel file, so each time he wanted to do a test run of his game he would end up with long strips of paper, (which as you can imagine isn't the easiest thing to hold in your hands).

​

So we mocked up what he wanted the cards to look like, and I wrote up some scripts that would take his Excel data, generate the appropriate card type, and place the data init.

​

After each card had been generated they were arranged in batches that would fit on an A4 piece of paper, and a jpeg image was then created for each batch.

​

These images could then easily be printed off, cutout and used for test games.
