Title: Beetle Royale Poker Playing Cards Live on Kickstarter
Post by: antic on August 24, 2015, 10:00:56 PM

Hi all,

I have launched my custom playing card deck on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/antic/beetle-royale-poker-playing-cards

It will be printed by Legends Playing Card Company, using their top of the line Diamond finish for best handling and durability.

There are two decks: Light and Dark.

Both decks have the same card back, which features a unique animation effect if you rotate half the cards and shuffle. Video on the project page.

I'm also doing an interior print and a foil accent on the boxes.

Every card is unique.

There's a lot of charm on this deck, looks fun. I also like the back animation. Unfortunately, beetles aren't really my bag. If they were, I'm sure I'd be all over this one. I may have to hop in for a deck anyway. Really there's a lot of unique fun going on here.

As a designer, I gotta say I really like this deck. This,...is a good design. Well balanced, every card unique. Adam, nice job...and on a first deck.
I don't know the guy..., but I hope he makes it to the goal.

Beetles, I don't like (do I?) and most people don't..., but the theme here is that much interesting.., cause it's well done. You almost  ;) made me like beetles. Well, I'm kidding,...I love all creatures, ants and rabbits and...horses,....zombies,...I don't like zombies.

Sword and crowns with beetles for courts, nice also.

I prefer the light deck and for the dark..., it would've been so cool if it was black cards with gold beetles on, tuck also.
