Made some design updates based on feedback I received from a couple fellow keyboard designers and I just received the first two prototypes this week. Super happy with how they turned out.

Looks funny and elegant, but typing appears to be a nightmare on this layout.
No numbers, important keys shoved out of reach.... OP expects you to bind OTHER IMPORTANT KEYS LIKE ESC/TAB/SHIFT TO BE BOUND TO Q in order to function.....
Might as well just grab a macropad at this point. You'll almost never use the keys for one thing anyways and you'll be doing Ctrl+/Fn+ combos constantly(except you don't even have those buttons, so what are you making combos out of anyways?).
I wouldn't even use this for an emulator. WASD is completely borked and the buttons you'd bind them to instead would then be lost as well and those need to be rebound too. A controller is more useful than this ever would be.
