Apologies for the radio silence, I've been busy this summer getting things ready to print! Right now my illustrator is currently working with Longpack to get the first prototype copies of the game.

Over the summer, I had my very first meeting with a publisher at Gencon! I'll admit I was nervous and said publisher wasn't interested, but so it goes. Also, speaking of firsts, I ate at Waffle House for the first time! Sure, it was late at night and they were doing pickup only, but I also took this great selfie:



Again, I apologize for worrying anyone, but rest assured I'm doing what I can to get this game to you!

Hey folks,

So, following the US international trade court's ruling and the general rule of TACO, I've decided to go forward with getting things ready to print. At the moment I'm working with my illustrator to get everything formatted for manufacturing.

That being said, I'm doing another local demo of the game in Brooklyn this month, at GUMBO's Archway arcade event! It's happening June 27th, from 6-9 over at the Brooklyn Bridge Archway, come by and say hi!
