I’ve been using the sample set for a while now!
The PBTfans dye-sub keycaps deliver a crisp and bouncy typing feel
with their glass microspheres. The updated colors are understated yet
elegant, and the dye-sub legends remain sharp. Can’t wait to see the final production!

Hello, I'm Oay.
After many days, I'm glad to bring to you a new keycap design.
The inspiration for this came from a game ——Tetris

Show Image

When I was thinking of designing a set of retro-colored keycaps, it came to mind.
I'm pleased that it started with pixel blocks, and keycaps are also square, making everything serendipitously appropriate.

In the design, I wanted the keycaps to be retro and durable-looking.
I chose low-saturation beige and gray, accented with blue-green, giving the feel of old monitor screens with grayish-white subtitles.

To go further and satisfy my initial instinct, I redesigned the fonts and pixelated them.

Base kit

This set of keycaps took about half a year from conception to completion.
 During this time, I intermittently researched, added and deleted content, and it gradually became complete and rich.

I'm not sure if this design will be liked by the majority, as it contains too many of my personal aesthetic preferences.
I sincerely hope to receive your affirmation and suggestions.

Due to the difference in different monitors, the color may be slightly different from the final product.
 I have tried my best to stay close to the color chart when rendering.
