Hi all!
After receiving some responses of our IC form, we still decided to launch this Groupbuy, because this is our first Alice style keyboard featuring QMK/VIA programmable.
Ergonomic Alice Split Design
VIA/QMK Programmable
Gasket-mounted
Stacked Acrylic Clear Case with Amazing RGB Backlights
Type-C Connection & Compatible with Windows/Mac
Keyboard Barebones Available Only
In the Interest Check, we mentioned that we could change the top right key into a rotary knob, on the condition that we received more than 200 votes. Unfortunately, we only received 101 votes for it so, we won't change that key into a knob. As to the case color, more people prefer a completely transparent one for it, and thus we add this option for the groupbuy.
You can start to purchase pre-order the barebone kit here: Epomaker Alice QMK/VIA DIY Kit
Price: $84.99
GB Period: from now till September 7, 2022
Estimated shipping date: Mid October, 2022 (See Update for the new estimated shipping date)

UPDATE on Sept 23, 2022 ====================================
After making a few samples, assembling and testing, we decide to make the PCB with South-facing LEDs to avoid the interference with cherry profile keycaps. AND add underglowing LEDs to make the full use of the shine-through & transparent acrylic case!Estimate shipping period will be around late October, 2022==================================================================================================

UPDATE on Nov 8, 2022 ====================================

This is our very first Alice layout keyboard, so we are so grateful that you stay with us for this Groupbuy. Please feel free to leave a comment to share your thoughts in this update, or directly share how you feel about it in our Discord if you have any inquiries.
