Big thanks to all who supported / shared and backed the campaign and to @christiandibari.bsky.social for his amazing art.
This has been a story I’ve wanted to tell for while. Looking forward to delving into the history of ‘The Merry Monk’ and his many cursed arcade cabs…

Just over 24 hours left on the Darkade Kickstarter. SO close to hitting that target. It would be a (terrifying) Christmas gift to see @christiandibari.bsky.social bring these horrors to life

When I asked ThisisFunArt if she’d be interested in creating a Darkade commission - I always expected an incredible piece of art. How she’s managed to deliver something far beyond my wildest dreams (or nightmares) is mind blowing.
A total masterpiece of a vintage, horror cab, catalogue advert !
