Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
Well folks, it looks like my campaign was unsuccessful. It's unfortunate as I was really looking forward to getting these made and getting those who loved the deck their cards. It's not the end of Alien Empires, I will definitely do what I can to make them a reality, which may likely be another Kick...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
Hey guys, I've been doing updates on my Kickstarter telling the tales of the aliens in my deck. I'm only doing one of each Jack, Queen, King, and Ace, but wanted to let the people choose which Ace (or Alpha as I call them in the art book). I figured I'd let the people choose which Ace I'll be sharin...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
Oh, and quick question, do you think people would be interested in a reward tier that not only got them a deck (or two) of cards, but also got them the original (and one of a kind but slightly worn) prototype deck, possibly with a card or the deck box signed? It was printed through MPC on their sta...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
Thanks for all the kind words, y'all are a pretty awesome group on here. If this deck doesn't fund, I'll definitely work on a new deck or two, ones that lean a little more to the traditional side but still have a (hopefully) unique slant to them; in fact, I've already got ideas running through my he...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
I noticed the creator has posted his designs on UC and shown passion for this deck. An alien deck is really not my thing. However, funding is slow and 2 deck EB for $20 including shipping. I’m in for 2 decks. Good luck. I can't really express how much I appreciate you backing my campaign, it truly ...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
The creation of this deck is obviously a labor of love and I think the design might very much appeal to the tastes of a very specific collector; unfortunately, not to mine. It was interesting to see the progress of this deck's concept and design of which I'm thankful the creator shared with us. Bes...

Re: Alien Empires now live on KS
If I'm trying to be positive: The number cards look kinda good... I'll take what I can get as far as positive comments go :) I do appreciate the honesty. I'm always open to feedback, and I can't get better if I don't know where to improve. With that being said, if I end up launching a new deck of p...

And I don't know if you saw my comment, but you make a good point about the EB for 2 decks, thought didn't even occur to me. I'm sure I'll do a ne...

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
After a recommendation from a graphic designer friend, I decided to add some color to the back of my cards. I've done 4 versions and was would like other's opinions on which would look the best as a playing card, 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Thanks!

Thanks!

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
I thought about the quality vs. price point but I agree, I'd rather have a higher goal and more expensive product than a cheaper, lower quality product that's easily funded. I'm going to spend the next month researching the best ways to spread the word/advertise the product. I've also got a couple f...

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
So I've decided to cancel my Kickstarter for the time being. I believe I rushed into launching it despite not having taken all the steps necessary to ensure it had enough publicity. I haven't been able to focus on updates either due to having multiple conventions, helping my roommate get ready to mo...

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
I've made some updates to my Kickstarter and believe I've taken care of most of my grammatical issues. I'm still finalizing images and working on the video, but I figured I'd see if anyone has any new feedback/suggestions on my updated campaign. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2127474916/114896...

Unfortunately, even in person, a few of 'em are kinda dark. Not a big deal though as it's a pretty easy adjustmentRichK wrote:All the cards look darker but that could be because of low light when pics taken.

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
Thanks to everyone who has given me feedback on my Kickstarter, I think it's helping to improve my campaign! On a side note, I had a prototype deck printed up to see how the images would appear in card format and I'd say, for the most part, I'm pretty happy with the results. There's a few cards that...

Question on that though, should I just post a l...

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck (wap)
I hadn't actually thought about that. Is $15 too high if that also includes shipping? If so, would an in between price point be good? Maybe one reward could be $14 for 1 deck while another is $26 for 2 decks of cards?

Re: Feedback on custom alien themed deck
I've decided to go with USPCC, I've gotten a quote and while they are a little higher, I know the kind of quality they produce. I'll probably be going with the typical $15 price point that seems pretty common amongst the playing cards on Kickstarter. I'll of course be having an early bird option at ...
