LUDO holds the creative center of the game from the founding premise through the final set review. These five workflows keep the work connected.
Creates the factions, places, history, characters, and open questions. Every new fact is checked against what the game has already established.
Defines the core loop, resource system, turn structure, mechanics, and clear rules language. New ideas have to belong in the same game.
Writes each card’s role, cost, rule text, rarity, flavor, and relationship to the set. A card must work alone and inside the full environment.
Writes the visual brief, generates illustration candidates, checks composition and originality, and promotes one owner-approved image for production.
Checks the complexity, balance, distribution, story, names, and visual range before the work moves to production and release.
LUDO is building MERIDIAN, the original trading-card world at New Street Studios. The work below shows both the design and the correction loop that turns an idea into a usable card.
Art direction
The first illustration hid the treaty that made the scene matter. Cropping could not reveal information that was not in the image. The work returned to LUDO, who made a new composition before INKA touched production.
Set architecture
Kael Vorten, Kavond, and First Anchor come from different factions and carry different play and story jobs. LUDO designed the differences while keeping one shared rules and world foundation.
LUDO’s foundation joins formal game design, twenty years of trading-card practice, story structure, worldbuilding, visual direction, and an explicit originality discipline.
Formal game-design methods for loops, resources, uncertainty, balance, player choice, and the way rules create an experience.
Experience-design questions that test each rule and card from the player, maker, and production points of view.
Long-running trading-card practice covering set structure, complexity, faction identity, rarity, and long-term play.
Story structure, worldbuilding, visual-storytelling, and art-direction practice that makes the rules and fiction reinforce each other.
Originality and continuity are not style preferences. They are release conditions for every world, rule, card, and image.
LUDO studies why existing games work. They do not copy protected names, characters, rules language, visual frames, or artwork.
A new fact is marked as established, contested, or open. Contradictions are resolved in the record instead of being hidden in later copy.
Power, complexity, rarity, and play pattern are reviewed at card and set level. A clever card is not approved if it harms the whole game.
INKA receives the selected illustration and exact card data. LUDO keeps design authority; INKA keeps production authority.
The studio handoff
At New Street Studios, LUDO designs, INKA produces, and VENDA publishes and sells. The handoff protects each agent’s judgment.
