God I would love an Alice tarot deck, $40 usually seems like a good price for decks like that (I think I've bought an out of print deck for that much?) I could only imagine how gorgeous the deck would be

I would love a tarot deck! But i wouldn’t use it for what it is, i’d be like a collectors item where the illustrations are exclusive/top notch, more for the special art then usage. And not playing card size, decent large images to appreciate all the details. Sturdy construction, nothing cheap. Would easily pay $50~70.

You MUST do the Tarot deck!!!!... OMG everything I've ever wanted!!!! I think 50USD is a good price, and maybe you could just do a limited number of decks... Keep up the good work!!!!

200% YES FOR THE TAROT DECK!

I want those bottles!!! I don't care if it has juice, perfume, or are empty I would love to add those to my collection!!!

Also I would LOVE a tarot deck! And I have a question regarding the rabbit goal: It is said that you get a rabbit if you pledge 45$ or more for one month. If i pledge 75$ for one month to get a rabbit and then go down to 2$ the next do I still get the necklace and the art print of the 75$ tier?

To the artwork of shock: it is perfect in my opinion and I 100% agree with your feedback to the art. As someone who got diagnosed with ptsd recently this and the stages with their brilliant artwork feel very close to home. I just want to add some personal stuff to anger that could be useful (hopefully?). For me the anger mostly felt uncontrollable and it had to get out somehow. I also associate blood with anger (like boiling blood). Maybe this could be added to the level design, especially the first topic of this urge to make it feel more realistic to some but as I sad it is just my personal experience.

As for price, it could easily be anywhere between $30-$70.

I would love for someone to gift me a tarot deck (a tarot deck for personal use should never be bought by yourself, it should always be gifted to you, preferably by a loved one). Likewise, I would love to give someone a tarot deck. So I might suggest that you market it as a gift set?

I would definitely back an Alice tarot deck..!!

The first thought about the trauma design was same as yours - too bright and grey. If you guys saw Lemony Snicket's Unfortunate events... movie there is a good represantion of this topic. I think I had one traumatic moment and few shocking moments in my life but never knew how can I put in one picture. The trauma would be darker if I'd do the paint.

TAROT TAROT TAROT I’m so excited about a tarot deck! I would easily pay $50 for such a deck, possibly higher if it’s a full 78 cards. I love pop culture decks and would love to see this come to fruition!

I would definitely back an Alice tarot Kickstarter! Even though I'm not really into tarot I just think the artwork that goes along with the cards is cool. A few years ago I bought a deck of zombie tarot cards because I liked the artwork. The cards come in a box with a booklet that fits on top which explains the meaning of the cards. They are available on amazon if you want to take a look for inspiration (I'm not sure if posting links here will work or if it will get marked as spam). It would be a decent amount of artwork to put together a full deck so I think I'd be fine paying 50ish dollars for the deck.

I think the white rabbit should stay a stuffed bunny and become more realistic as the game goes on

Cannot agree more with the comments, I would absolutely love to see a deck and would pay up to 40 sparkly moniez for it. That said, I would love to seeyou dig more into the characters as well as putting your own American McGee spin on it, Out of the Woods style.

I know little about tarot decks, but I've been intrigued by them for a while and sometimes look at getting one. I would definitely back to get a Alice one made by you guy! I also like the bottles - great designs and power ups could be fun, but I might make them a bit tricky to get to (like the frustration when Alice first drinks and leaves the key on the table and it almost destroys her in the original book lol)

I agree with some comments above, YES to the deck, but dig into the characters and make it as real to the symbolism of the deck as possible, when you use a deck you need to connect to the art, words, and feel in order for it to solidify and connect with your spiritual self to convey the messages properly. I would pay 25-35$ for a deck typically. :)

I would love a tarot set!

This all sounds so amazing, Would LOVE the Tarot set! 20$ to 40$ range sounds right. Also the art for the stages and the enemy designso far is beautiful!

I absolutely love the shock design, and have to agree that fire definitely been overdone (even though I have noticed it until just now ^^'). The live stream is going to be at 3am for me, so I honestly doubt I'll be there for it, but we'll see, and even if not I'll most likely share my thoughts on some of the topics in the comments when I do have the time to watch it. As for the White Rabbit Dress, I've recently said the same on Youtube, but even though I do plan on getting it, I do not think it's a good idea to make this the only way to get said dress, and instead when the time has come it would be best to ask the people who did get this reward tier if they agree to releasing the white rabbit dress to public after a period of exclusivity

The description and setting for shock seem accurate to me. Would definitely be all for the tarrot card set.

I would definitely buy the tarot cards...……. please do them

I'd love to see a tarot deck for Alice!! 30 to $40 sounds about right, A big mistake that some tarot decks have is that sometimes the minor arcana depict repetitive or simplistic images for the wands, swords, cups, and pentacles. Since Alice Asylum is based on the various stages of grief and emotional experiences I think incorporating some of that would be amazing in the tarot deck as well, especially for the pentacle suit. Also it would be nice if the cards weren't too flimsy as that takes away from the quality of the cards.

Everything is shaping up very nicely!

I say yes to tarot set.

Fuck yes about the shock. SUGGESTION: music in that area could be the sound of low tinnitus to begin with followed by wind whipping through mixed with some sort of haunting female vocal. Basically no instrument. Tarot. Yes. $25-35 Avoid the obvious. Really dig deep into the symbolism of the character and the alchemy and of the archetypes. Having a short phrase or string of words, even in some sense of riddle form to help depict the action is helpful, especially for beginners. Itd also be nice to include the regular playing card symbol the card associates to, but that's getting a bit semantic-y. Amazing as always Bless.

I desperately want the tarot set. Would pay $30-40.

I'd back a tarot deck in a heartbeat. As others have said $30-$40 would be the range I'd be willing to back for a deck.

I’d support the tarot card deck!

I love tarot cards, being a wiccan myself I want to start collecting different kinds. That being said, don't make it a game. I remember hearing in the livestream about a game with the tarot cards. Just don't. Anyways, $30-35 is about what I would pay for a really nice tarot deck. You can probably bump it to $45 if you include a book. But if you do, make sure they're accurate and correspond to the original tarots or else people that actually own, use, and enjoy tarot decks don't find a reason to accuse you of "abusing tarot tradition for profit" or some sort of rubbish like that

I'd back the tarot card deck.

Tarot cards, please!

I would love a tarot deck. Also a nice book to go with them. I've paid up to £60 for a set with fully illustrated book.

I’ve paid up to $30 for a very nice tarot deck. One thing about tarot decks and users is we often trade or give away decks, gift tarot decks being considered purer then self bought ones. Maybe at a higher backing offer 2 decks to increasing funding?

I would love tarot cards! Generally nicer decks are around $40 USD, and I would be happy to pay that (especially with the amazing Alice artwork)!

I would love to back the tarot card deck. Most tarot card decks range between 15 and 40 euro's but 35 should be fine. If you really want to know more about tarot cards you should defitnitly visit a spiritual shop, they can tell you a lot about it.

I'm all for a tarot card kickstarter. Just make sure the cardstock quality is nice.
