ABOUT THIS DECK
Inspired by the lower city neon lights and nightlife, the Neontech color scheme is a representation of "style over substance." Doesn't matter the reference, Blade Runner 2049, Altered Carbon, Ghost in the Shell, Battle Angel Alita, or Cyberpunk 2077, the triad is always there: Yellow, Cyan, and Purple command Cybercity.
Identities, payments, gear patents, life reboots, secrets... Our back cards were inspired by the central AI in which everyone and everything is connected in Cybercity. Every Cyberware is somehow connected to the core, so our dependency on the machine never ends.
Each court card was hand-drawn from scratch. They were the start of our deck and are the point where we deep-dove into the cyberpunk theme. All four suits represent an iconic cyberpunk group:
♠ Spades - Techs
Not part of the lower level but also far from a place in the corporations. They have found in their Cyberware a way of living: fixing, modifying, and smuggling for those who can´t afford it.
♥ Hearts- Federation
Despite being governed by corporations, the law enforcement path should not be crossed lightly. Their agents might not be as well equipped as the corporate agents, but their brutality is more than enough to compensate for their lack of gear.
♣ Clubs - Hackers
Being a hacker in the cyberpunk world is about standing up against corporate supremacy and defying authority. Cyberware is just a tool, so you can be one with the network and fight them from the inside out.
♦ Diamonds - Sleeves
Cyberpsychosis is the state one's mind reaches when the body cannot support the Cyberware's psychological burden anymore. For those who cannot afford treatment the only way is to transfer their consciousness to an empty cyborg, with the hope of one day being able to return to a human body again.
