Gonna be quick on feedback if it's alright, would you think about no uv printed alphas in base and 40s kit? It would be awesome, thanks!
Post by: Bub on Tue, 01 June 2021, 07:52:40
- try to squeeze a nov into base (they are SO good and a driver for this set)
- some renders on a more plain background to get a better idea of the colors
- make subs like 10-20% bigger
- Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn

Easily my most anticipated GMK set so far this year, and an instant purchase for me.
I think both the sublegends and novs are a must, so I'm on the page of keeping the subs in the base kit, personally.

Looks great. Can you add a section explaining what the sublegends are? GLWIC!
The University of Arkham, Massachusetts has studied the scant relics and writings that reference this lost city and its race of elder beings. Among those are the Unaussprechlichen Kulten by Von Junst and the unspeakable work by Abdul Alhazred both kept in the forbidden vaults at Arkham University. This collection of hieroglyphs represents the sum total of our understanding of the R'hylian language. It is our hope that by providing these symbols to the general public we may one day unlock the knowledge hidden deep within the vaults of the lost city of R'lyeh.
"The nightmare corpse-city of R'lyeh…was built in measureless eons behind history by the vast, loathsome shapes that seeped down from the dark stars. There lay great Cthulhu and his hordes, hidden in green slimy vaults." - HP Lovecraft.

I'm usually not very into novelties but these are great!
Thank you for ISO novelty.
Here's what I'd personally like to change:
text + icon mods.
cutting numpad from base to make it cheaper.
norde kit
more/different deskmats. The one you currently suggest is too similar to many already out there.
Ignore me if I'm speaking nonsense. ^-^
Post by: Rob27shred on Tue, 01 June 2021, 16:50:01
please color match this correctly. i beg this doesn't turn into the other sea nightmare set with similar colors.
Nautilus Nightmares wasn't a color matching error, but a conscience decision Zambu made to change the colors AFAIK. Although either way I do agree, please be extra vigilant with the color matching. Love this colorway & would love to see it finally come to life!

3 custom colors plus the 4th color sublegend on a fairly big base kit is gonna be 155 or 160 at 250 MOQ. if 500 MOQ+... whatever. If this goes to Kono at 250 MOQ...cut the base kit down and at least get it to 149.99

Yes the colors did change over few months we've been working on this set, since we wanted to make sure that everything is in place to have smooth color matching.

My 2 cents would be on 2 items.
1. I would love to see banner/header of the Lighthouse lighting up cthulhu be made into a deskmat. I like the pattern in the current deskmat design but would love the option to get a non-patterned version deskmat. The banner seems to be rectangular in shape already like the deskmat and is a good start. I would suggest rounding off the sharp lines that make Cthulhu outline into something smoother to make him seem more "tentacle-y"
2. Also is there a possibility of more novelties? Such novelties can be outlines of other elder gods or outer gods (if not other iconography or objects) in the mythos and can possibly fill up and entire R1 to replace the F-row keys for example. There should be enough gods in the original Lovecraft works to round this list. Hastur, Yog-sothoth, Nyarlathotep and Azathoth to name a few. Hastur in particular even predating Lovecraft. Hastur could be an outline of a hooded person, nyarlathotep could be humanoid with an elongated head, etc. Also the detail may be too fine but it would great to see a necronomicon sigil(however I don't know if the sigil requires permission for use).
Either way I have looking for a lovecraftian set for a while and look very much to supporting this set when it drops.

Post by: devpm on Thu, 03 June 2021, 03:55:05
But would it be possible to get an AZERTY option for this? Would that be an expensive upgrade? Or just the demand is not high enough to even consider it? Am I the only one in that situation?
Lots of questions but I think it deserves just one answer. ;)

Unique sub-legends work really well, though I can't help but feel like they could be used in the alternate alphas kit rather than incorporated into the base,
Definitely looking forward to hearing more from this set! GLWIC

2. There aren't plans to make more novelties at the moment, set revolves around Cthulhu only and we want it to stay like that also from hundreds of responses so far it seems that people enjoy this theme a lot.
Also I updated the IC FORM (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1VGg9J32XhBoZyLorla_R-vjTooLDj1skCeEn3X9EM_k/edit) and now you guys can vote if you would like to see basekit with or without sublegends.

Hey!
Thank you very much! On IC form you have an option to select what version would you like to see in final version. Right now 68,5% of people would disagree with you and they want runes in basekit. If I'll have more votes I might consider running 2 basekits. We will see.

1. I look forward to the second deskmat and can't wait to see it!
2. I understand that completely. I always just try to push in a few more novelties if possible.
Another vote for r'lyehian subs on the base kit. Hope to see some artisan collabs if at all possible as well! Maybe Kolkrabba (archetype) or capthulhu (key capital)!?
Either way, best of luck with the IC/GB and I will definitely be supporting it!

Voted for the sublegends on the base kit too. They really define it.

The mousepad is nice but I think black could be like dark greenI agree. We are working to ensure that the colors chosen for the deskmat, will match the colors of the set. The Ocean and sky with have a subtle gradation from very dark green to dark green. I will be working with our manufacturer to ensure the colors look good, and tell the story.

Right now the vote is split 70/30 so I believe we might just add another non sub-legends basekit but at the moment it's hard to say. Also, I should be ready to announce vendors this week.

out of curiosity, will any samples be made first for this unusual colorway ?
If you are asking if I will color match with GMK before GB the answer is no. I will do it after as most sets do, I don't see any problems when it comes to getting these colors right and I doubt the "Nautilus Nightmares situation" that people are afraid of, happened because colors were too hard to match. To get confirmation of what exactly happened you would need to talk to Zambumon.

Not a fan of the UV-printed sublegends.
The novelty enter key does look a bit like a unicorn horn, as someone else mentioned. The Cthulhu-world-eating also is a bit busy for a 1.25u key; I'd love to see the Elder Signs on 1.25u keys.
Why the mixed icon/text mods?
This looks great and I'll definitely join the group buy! I'd love it if there was a full 'Innsmouth Look" option, dropping the Latin alphas and going with the other script for legends, symbols for mods, etc. Either way though, this looks really good!
Full R'hylian basekit would be an instant buy for me even at $200. Even just R'hylian mono legend alphas would be an instant buy.

I agree that there’s a similar ‘cutting mat’ green going on as with Nightmares, (..)If only Nautilus Nightmares actually was that color... I think a few of us are hoping this one will turn out actually closer to that green.

please consider adding an extra Tab button in the latin alpha kit, so we can cover 2 keyboards with base+latin. If I didn't make sense try checking out what GMK Stargaze or Houhai did.
edit: if you're looking to further reduce the price, consider removing the four UK-ISO specific buttons (R1 `¬, 2", 3£, R3 @') and only keep the terminal ISO with Enters, R3 #~ and R4 \| - or even better change these two for R3 \| and R4 <>.
There's so many EU countries in this hobby by now that, unless you're running a NorDeUk kit, there is no reason to favor a specific regional layout. Keep it standard for everyone.

UK ISO is the common denominator as it allows for UK-Intl support in most operating systems.

However this set is useless to me without 40's compatibility.
Please consider adding at least 3-key physical 40's compat to base (R2 1.75u Backspace, R3 1.25u Tab, R3 1.5u Enter)

This. Don’t change it. Also terminal ISO is just the worst.

Having UK-ISO in base is pretty much a 100% cop from me. It's extremely hard to justify getting a £50/60+ addon kit for 6 keys at most. and Terminal ISO only would make it worthless personally.

The design concept is amazing and the colors are great! Some thoughts:
Not a fan of the UV-printed sublegends.
The novelty enter key does look a bit like a unicorn horn, as someone else mentioned. The Cthulhu-world-eating also is a bit busy for a 1.25u key; I'd love to see the Elder Signs on 1.25u keys.
Why the mixed icon/text mods?This looks great and I'll definitely join the group buy! I'd love it if there was a full 'Innsmouth Look" option, dropping the Latin alphas and going with the other script for legends, symbols for mods, etc. Either way though, this looks really good!
Full R'hylian basekit would be an instant buy for me even at $200. Even just R'hylian mono legend alphas would be an instant buy.
I said this in the Reddit thread about this kit, and still stand by it! Even if I was already told it was just a pipe dream :)

whatever, just add a second Tab in the alternate alphas for the 2 kit support.

I kinda agree. A Tab key in the Novelty kit or alternate alpha kit would be sweet! It would defiantly make purchasing the alt alpha set worth it.
Also, any update on a THOCK or RAMA keycap colab?

Menacing! Also you really are killing it with the background objects/shots. It's helping tell the story and I think it's top notch.

This looks awesome!! Loving the colors.
Would you consider adding two 1.5u OS/super keys and a second 1u alt key? This would add support for macOS HHKB and 7u users. Would love to see it in the base kit, but even a separate kit would do!
Please submit that to IC form if you haven't already. The kitting will probably get changed after enough feedback is gathered.
I see there was a novelty kitting update and this still wasn't resolved? Is the base kit kitting still being worked on?

That's really disappointing. Why did you elect not to add them when the moulds already exist?
Post by: Afresh on Fri, 13 August 2021, 15:02:29
Adding more keys to the basekit makes it more expensive. So supporting everything isn't an option. Also I believe in that base you can find keys that will work in the place of what you are asking (1.5u and 1u keys).Any chance of adding those two 1.5u OS/super keys and a second 1u alt key?

Thanks for responding! There are enough keys, but not with the correct legends for macOS 7u/HHKB unfortunately.
May I ask how much more the basekit would have cost with those 3 keys added? Working on getting them included with more base and extension kits from different designers and coming armed with that knowledge would be helpful.

Its not so much that the cost is a ton, but it is up to the designer to choose combability to layouts that they think will be profitable (or that they like to use). There's a few other layouts that fall into this category: 3 key 40s, split backspace, 2u shift, r3/r4 pg up and pg dn. Hell, even NumPad. Supporting ALL these layouts is expensive, so GMK designers need to follow their own path some and support the layouts that they think will be most successful. More recently, 3 key 40s has been raising in popularity while HHKB has gone down. Another solution some designers will follow will be to cut back on accents.
Physical HHKB is particularly tough because a lot of HHKBers are fine without physical support. Or will buy a Nov kit.

Also changing kitting so close to gb is sadly not an option since contacting manufacturer can take some time.

Sorry but I can't tell you what's written in private messages between vendors and manufacturer.
