I think you should provide more information about your keycap such as profile (Cherry I'm guessing?), doubleshot?, manufacturer, estimated price...etc?

Personally, the font reminds me of the font that you'd see on Razer or other gamer boards.

Sorry to be a party pooper, but the font looks tacky, and keycaps in general look pretty "cheap", or "insufficient quality", if you wish.

Can you please provide some technical info, such as manufacturer, materials, estimated price, etc.

The font is very reminiscent of the one used on Razer keyboards. My first mech keyboard was a Razer w/Cherry MX Blues circa 2015, and it had this exact style of legend.

Gotta add to the discussion that font isn't the best and you're skipping a lot of the important info about price, keycap profile, manufacturer and a timeline. I get this is IC but yeah... If this is your debut, you should give more info and add what's special about your keyset cause there's a lot of WoB/BoW cheap keysets with a bad font...

IMO most users on this board are enthusiasts that generally tend to shy away from "gamer" font/design/aesthetic, so I don't think you're going to get a very warm reception on GH with this product.

Also, the general lack of info/background in the original IC post definitely doesn't help.

Hey chief, this ain't it.

I'm sure these could sell on AliExpress to a more mainstream market but without any offence: we're used to better stuff, this ain't the market for it.

It isn't that bad, but it does look a little cheap/harder to read. The top centered legends would work well for doubleshot backlit caps (which might be easier to sell considering you'd only be competing with stock caps and pudding caps instead of basically everything else).

If these aren't doubleshot (for backlighting) the purists will riot because the font isn't Helvetica Round, and the people looking for decent backlit caps will just be stuck with pudding caps.

These are WASD or Maxkeyboard caps... OEM, clearly pad printed ABS. These would cost about $30-40 from the manufacture so I am guessing final price will be $60 for the group buy runner to hope to break even with shipping and packaging, etc.

Definitely a no based on the design. It has some nice elements, but the legends aren’t event stacked properly...
