New upcoming Alien INk deck. Goes live tonight
Re: New upcoming Alien INk deck. Goes live tonight
It's a shame because I think you could go far with a floral theme. Oh well.
Re: New upcoming Alien INk deck. Goes live tonight
I may be alone here but I really like the use of color on these card faces. No antsy-pantsy pastels, but these use full in-your-face color. It's a breath of fresh air. There are plenty of art decks out there that don't use the traditional suits. Plus lots of non-English/non-French decks don't use the French suits. Get over it. Open your minds to the larger(!) world of playing cards!

No, I think that's the tragedy of this deck-- it does a number of things that, in the hands of someone who knew what they're doing, would make for a very attractive presentation. Using bright colour is nice, not using the traditional suits, whatever really, but the actual art is terrible.

The artwork is not suitable for a deck of cards and T-shirts at all! Maybe a vase or some pottery...

Re: New upcoming Alien INk deck. Goes live tonight
Well guess what showed up in my mail box yesterday...The now infamous Galaxy cards hehehe. I remember I was new to Kickstarter when those got listed on KS and yes I did pledge. First let me say that I am not a pro cardist like most of you but I am not impressed by this deck. The borders look thin enough but the overall look of the cards is very so so. The backs and fronts are way too dark so every card looks the same to me. Those of you that handle cards might like them, quality seems decent enough. But in the end, I think I will give one deck to my young daughter to play with and will sell the rest on ebay
Edit: I forgot to say, they got my order wrong...can't say that I am surprised

the idea is great, the execution leaves much to be desired. the choice of colors is very clip artey and not very good.
