"Every journey begins with a choice."Hey all, I'm back with a new deskmat design call
JourneySchedule
Interest Check : https://forms.gle/ixWRL3fu7GntxBzt5 (https://forms.gle/ixWRL3fu7GntxBzt5)
Group Buy : 12 November
Inspiration
Inspired by nintendo gameboy and pokemon series. This design aims to journey back to that nostalgia era of the good old days where simple pixel gaming and 8bit battle themes were a thing.
Design elements from gameboy and pokemon into mechanical keyboard switches without overdoing them. Hope you like it!

UPDATE
24/9 - I have reworked the layout of the text from the previous design and also tweaked a few of the design elements,
added a power indicator which differs slightly from each theme.
25/9 - Changed the color of the middle switch to orange to better match Charmander's color.
25/9 - Charmander and Squirtle switches are now in correct sequence as with the original pokemon.
26/9 - Reduced size of the quotation marks and slightly toned down the quotation so the focus is more towards the switches.
26/9 - Updated renders to show a more accurate deskmat (texture and stitching).
27/9 - Light Theme - Slighty adjusted the outline tones for the switches to make it pop more.
4/10 - Update to vendor lists
5/10 - Changed the borders of the switches to match the respective pokemon colors. Many have commented that the light theme does not pop as much as the dark theme, hopefully this will resolve that!
31/10 - Group buy date 12 November.
Group Buy will include Light and Dark theme and option of having the quote or no quote versions.
Very nice my friend, lots of nostalgia from this one! Pat on the back :) For vendors, If you ever want to give them a look, I know Mechs and Co (https://mechsandco.com/) are a great team here in the USA, and rheset.mx (https://rheset.mx/) is another stellar one for Latin America
