We have decided to postpone the release a bit since Canada Post is so freakin slow these days
 

That's a good idea.  I've still got three magazines (each mailed a month apart) in transit that are now months late!!!!!  That's if they'll turn up at all.

Yeah, everything is super slow at Post Canada 
We didn't want to piss people off, since I'm also waiting for packages for quite some time now and I know how much time it can takes to receive a package

Very cool! I had no idea Sydney’s HQ was here in San Diego. That’s two 1980s game developers with SD headquarters (the other being Steven Stack of Red Sea Crossing [Atari]). Interestingly, each developer had at least one unpublished game. I only wish there were some remnants of their facilities or the stock, but sadly these are just spaces occupied by different tenants now. 
 

Edit: I see that it was Dataproducts, Inc. as the [presumed] developer. Still cool!

More notably, Sega's North American operations were in San Diego for several years after they purchased Gremlin Industries.  Many early Sega coin-op and consumer games were developed there.

Most if not all of Sydney's ColecoVision games (likely including Energy Quiz) were developed by Artech in Ottawa, ON.
