Sorry for the green username, long time lurker first time contributor :)
It all started with a dream. I love playing cards and I've always wanted to make my own deck. I started the initial work years ago but took it seriously a few months ago. I launched the campaign on Kickstarter about a month ago.
It took a lot of work to get it rolling. I found some amazing support on reddit and on twitter and it just kind of snowballed from there.
It really took off after being featured on VICE and LaughingSquid.
I'm doing an IAmA over on reddit right now, if you are interested:
