🎄💀 Skeleton Dance Arcana — Production Update 💀🎄
4 months ago – Wed, Dec 03, 2025 at 05:38:28 AM

Hello everyone,

We’re happy to share a production update for Skeleton Dance Arcana as we move through the final weeks of the year.

We’ll be printing with the same trusted printer currently producing Hundred-Acre Arcana and The Mystic Honeypot Arcana, as well as the Steamboat Arcana and Gaucho’s Arcana Expansion Packs. The decks will be printed on 330 GSM paper, giving the cards a premium feel and durability that is ideal for regular use and long-term keeping.

Our production designer has been finalizing all of the files for the decks, guidebooks, boxes, and stretch goal items, and everything remains on schedule. We expect to have all files submitted to the printer by the middle of December.

Once that stage is complete, the printer will produce sample decks and boxes for us to review.

 We’ll carefully check color, finishing, and overall quality before approving the full print run. If any small changes are needed, they will be handled at that stage to make sure everything prints exactly as intended.

We’ll share photos and updates as soon as the samples arrive.

Thank you for your trust and continued support.

Happy Holidays,
Mark & Steamboat Legends 💀⚓

✨ A Grand Finale for The Skeleton Dance Arcana! ✨

💀🎶 The curtain falls, the lanterns dim, and the skeletons rest for now. 🎶💀

What an extraordinary journey this has been. From the first sketches to the final haunting note, The Skeleton Dance Arcana has come to life in ways we could have only imagined, and it is all thanks to you.

Your support helped this project grow in beautiful ways, unlocking every stretch goal and adding new layers of texture and meaning to the deck. The final addition, the Enamel Pins, will serve as a small yet shining tribute to the rhythm and spirit of this collection, a reminder of the midnight dance we all shared together. 🌙✨

We are also exploring a lenticular effect for the box interior, pending confirmation from the printer that it can be safely produced with the Spot UV finish. If approved, this will be our first time using this special effect, and we are very excited to see if it can bring the artwork to life in motion.

This campaign has been a celebration of art, imagination, and community. Every comment, share, and kind message helped bring this deck to life, and your encouragement has meant more than words can express.

We now move into production and sample proofing, where each detail will be carefully refined. Soon, the bones will rise again, this time in printed form, ready to shuffle, read, and dance beneath your own moonlit nights.

With heartfelt thanks and endless gratitude,
Mark & The Steamboat Arcana Team 🕯️💀

You did it again! 

Thanks to your amazing support, The Skeleton Dance Arcana has now passed $37,000, unlocking the Dark Edge Card Finish! 

This subtle but striking detail adds a deeper tone along the edges of the cards, giving the deck a refined, shadowed look that perfectly complements its gothic style. It’s a small touch that makes a big difference, enhancing the atmosphere of every reading and making the cards feel even more complete in hand.

Here’s what you’ve helped unlock so far:

✅ Premium Production Upgrades

✅ Full-Color Guidebook

✅ Halloween Bonus Card Set

✅ Bronze Divination Coin

✅ Tassel Bookmark

✅ Skeleton Dance Keychain

✅ Dark Edge Finish

Our printer let us know that adding the Lenticular Box Interior may not be compatible with the Spot UV coating currently planned for the box. To stay on schedule and make sure everything prints perfectly, we’ve decided to move forward with the Enamel Pins at the $40,000 stretch goal for now.

We’ll continue exploring the lenticular interior separately and outside of the stretch goals to see if it can be done safely for production. We just want to be cautious and make sure we can truly deliver what we promise.

Thank you for keeping the energy alive and helping this project grow. Let’s keep the bones dancing all the way to $40K! 💀🎶

With gratitude,
