newgrounds.com recently had a game jam where there was a call for artists' game concept submissions. This is one of the two submission I had made (avaialble under public domain)
This concept draws influences from the much debated internet topic "Can you fight twenty kids?"

Very surreal. Nice artwork. :)
Thanks!
This appears to be a mockup and might be better suited in "documents" as in "this is a graphic to be used in a game design document, not in a game". Concept art to me is either art usable as story images/backdrops or portraits. This one is not, due to the UI elements in it.
It could be used as a static image on an gaming device screen in games, although looking at the description, it doesn't seem to be the intention.
Are all the graphical elements by you? If not, I assume the other authors agreed to sharing this under CC0/PD on OGA? :)
This submission would definitely be more useful with a layered, lossless image provided. Perhaps it would be useful to have the flash source as well, if you don't oppose sharing those.
To answer your questions
1"this is a graphic to be used in a game design document, not in a game"
This was an open game competition where artists were encouraged to draw up concepts from which different team of game developers picked one of the concepts and made a game out of it. So this graphic you see is what inspired the game design
2. It could be used as a static image on an gaming device screen in games, although looking at the description, it doesn't seem to be the intention.
Take a look at this example of game concept art for Bingie's upcoming game - Destiny. This is game concept art, This art presents the gamer a general idea of what the game is about, the environment where it could be set, the types of units without disclosing too much.
With the same intention, this piece is just intended to represent an idea for a game "Can you fight 20 kids?". This mock in game screen shot also shows what happens when the player knocks out an enemy unit, how the enemy units move, the unit the gamer conrtolls, UI elements like health, how much of health remains, and number of enemies to defeat before the round is over.
3. Are all the graphical elements by you? If not, I assume the other authors agreed to sharing this under CC0/PD on OGA? :)
Yes, this game concept art was made by me. This submission is intended for public domain and communities like opengameart
4. This submission would definitely be more useful with a layered, lossless image provided.
Makes sense, I have updated this submission to be a lossless PNG. I will definitely upload the individual assets in the 2d art asset section of this comminity.
Thank you very much for replying so extensively!
I have no art education. To me the line between intended concept art and potential story backdrop or potential character portrait varies on the work.
I like this mockup (I hope this term works as a replacement for "mock in game screen shot"?) and OGA needs more mockups. It might get complicated to ensure license and attribution requirements are met when different sources are mixed. But still: yay mockups!
To me, the concept of mockups seem more related to game design documents than to concept art. On the other hand, the documents section here http://opengameart.org/art-search-advanced?keys=&field_art_type_tid%5B%5D=11 is chaotic.
I look forward to the individual assets!
