Thank you for your kind comments. I'm really proud of the whole thing; perhaps the greatest program I've ever written. The boxes are being printed in Germany. They then ship to USA. The carts need to be burned; this is a trivial thing; a couple of days at most. As I said, Thomas and I are leaving the delivery of final binary to the very last second so we can make as many improvements as possible. Just today we found a bug in the 7800 pause routine, so this policy appears to be paying off. However, we're really just dabbling in the code, as everything has been complete since early December. Just colour changes and minor bug fixes. The manual needs to be approved and printed; this will happen while the boxes are in-transit. As you can see, everything is very close and we're all itching to get this out the door ASAP. I am very sure that those who have purchased will be happy with the final product. The manual contains some very interesting information, the box is lovely, the cartridge artwork is beautiful, and the extras are teriffic. My apologies for the delays; it turns out that the process has been much more intensive than Thomas and I had anticpated. Anyone who wants a refund, that's fine -- no questions asked. Cheers A Hi Andrew, Love the box design too, but more importantly can't wait to play the game. Would have loved to have submitted a design but didn't see the comp until it was to late...( Just laughing to myself because I live in Limburg (south Netherlands) so my box will be doing some serious travel.
