Well this is awkward...

Hahahaha! You're really fast! Can you do something if I add the word "Skull"?

. . .
I am impressed yet horrified!

AMEN to that!!!

I am not a big fun of zombies. So even nice designed zombie playing cards will hardly arouse my interest. But in the end of the day I can substitute these three words with two other words: "bad design" ;)
p.s. On the other hand it could be interesting to see steampunk playing cards from Lotrek :)

I agree Collector, but luckily we haven't seen yet on KS: "New! Bicycle "Bad Design" deck of playing cards"
And please, don't tempt me! ;) Steampunk is a style that I love and normally I'd like to do a Steampunk deck. It's just so worn out... ???

@Alex: HAHAHAHAH! HILLLLARIOUS!!

Then, sir, I present you with a CHALLENGE. Create a steampunk (or gearpunk, dieselpunk, pick-your-alternate-history-variant-punk, etc.) deck design that:
a) doesn't say the name of the genre ANYWHERE on the cards or the tuckbox (nor in the KS campaign, should you actually decide to produce it),
b) does NOT use gears in the design unless they're presented as working parts of an actual machine rather than ornaments, clothing accessories, wall hangings, etc., and
c) is absolutely gorgeous, a pleasure to look at and to use, a fantastic blend of form and function.
I believe that c) will be the easiest part... Think about it, it's what makes us so tired of seeing "steampunk everything" - the pretention, the gears where no gears belong, the implausibility of the settings and the people, etc. Make such a deck whose "story" could just as easily be described by the simple terms "Victorian" or "Old West" but with just a tiny science-fiction-y twist to it that would make Jules Verne or Herbert George Wells jealous, while at the same time seeming 100% plausible, the kind of story that could have been reality were it not for a tiny turn of events in a different direction.

Skull flower circles? EPIC WIN!!! Does KS coount a TRUCKLOAD as one item? Because I could get 11 of those! :-)
You forgot one thing "Printed by unknown company that's WAYYYYYY better than the USPCC, can print 1,500 decks in 20 minutes at a cost of 50 cents each, printed on viging unicorn vellum and coated with air-gliiide unobtanium!""
Add-ons are UFO rides, and free land on the moon!
