Hello there,
so here is a quick preview of the color scheme for the golden edition.
It is mainly inspired by the mediterranean color scheme, with that deep green.
The gold layer will also be used as an underlayer for the standard yellow, deepening it and adding a subtle shine to it, and as an underlayer for the standard red.
Have a nice day!

Hello there! Today we enter the final stretch for the funding campain! We might reach the 200% if some people feel motivated to unlock that second stretch goal!

I cross my fingers and stay hopeful!
The journey is not over but i am already quite happy about all that was accomplished !

And just like that we are entering the last hours of the project! If you consider acquiring one or several copies, now will be the last moment!

Thanks once again to the forum for their feedbacks and all regarding the project! See you soon for the post mortem

I wish you posted more pictures, Pyramid. Your new neon deck, which is the most expensive, only has a zoomed out pic of the joker. This isn't very helpful for the folks who are not sure whether to back or not. In the future, you may want to show a lot more. Just my thoughts though. Congrats on getting funded.

It is noted for next time. The shooting was made as well as possible but things can be vastly improved on that topic i agree (not really on the pics quality but on displaying the different tiers better) thanks for the feedback it is always precious and all of it will be implemented for the next round obviously !

Until closing: stress
Tomorrow or friday: post-mortem

Have a nice one!

Hello there!
It has been a while, sorry for the delay.

So regarding the campain: i am pleased to announce it has been a success here too. The goal was low but we met it well and all, plus 2 stretch goals. Doing a ks campain is a lot of stress but quite rewarding (mostly). The fact people sometimes disengage is ofc super understandable but the volatility was something i was not 100% ready for.

My feelings towards what is well worth and what is less worth: i really think communicating organically around your project well in advance is super important for making a campain that works (maybe less so once you are a recognized name but i am not here for the moment). I also cannot stress enough how doing so on specialized spaces / spaces you interact with often seems key (the difference of volumes coming from here, reddit, the specialized places on facebook or the discords i soend time on i really notable compared to from my ig page). Ks tends to display your project relatively well from what i get, and people discovering the project here are also a notable share of preorders.

Regarding feedback: i got a lot of very interesting suggestions here i will try to implement for subsequent projects. Sadly i think many of them implied re-doing part of the photography, which was not really possible. In general i need to plan and direct the shooting better. The pics and the video are really neat but i was falling short in terms of what i wanted to display (and one or two other fumbles there).

Next step is producing what is needed, and i will start that asap!

Thanks again for the members implication, support and feedback and can’t wait to give news of what is coming up next
