Today I officially finished the book! Ordered the samples of each version today to QC.

That means I should be sending out all the book-only rewards next month, three months ahead of schedule!

I apologize about my ignorance, what QC is?

Also, best luck with the whole project, seems like things are going great!

QC = Quality Control.... I have two different publishers sending me samples, so I am going to compare and then go through check every page to make sure there aren't any errors or any formatting didn't get messed up when printing

New Project Update!

https://www.kickstarter.com/proje...

I got the sample of the hardcover book today. It's an awesome sight to behold and it's definitely a huge collector's piece!

Also, I compared my book to the other "more popular" collector's book I have....(Better quality pic in the KS update) It's like night and day.

It should be available for a good while, hopefully. Unless we get a huge demand in the next month you should be good.

Will this game be available again? Also is there a reason for the cib being $40 more than the cart besides taking advantage of people that collect cib?

The game will be available again, after we get out the games to all the project backers.

The prices were more expensive because I am piecing everything together in low quantities and with Kickstarter fees, and actually paying Sly Dog Studios a decent rate for their work, it cost me more to be able to get the game out.

Also, keep in mind that anything left over for profit, after everything is out, will be getting donated to charities.

Well Sly Dog has been working on the game. Once I assemble everything and ship it out to backers (after the game is completed), then I'll know if there are any extras leftover. Until then, I won't know what's available. However, I will definitely send out a Kickstarter Update, Social Media Update and update this thread when I know more, however it could be awhile.

Thanks!

Time to vote for your favorite Box Art to use for the regular edition boxes!

http://www.easypolls.net/poll.htm...

FYI: If the third option wins, I will do a pretty cool Limited Edition version with Joe Simko's original pencil sketch and white or clear cartridges.

Super Necro Bump for the win as.... after two years Black Box Challenge has finally been completed!!!

I have been hand assembling all of the carts/CIBs and am working on getting everything shipped out to backers within the next week.

After that, there should be a couple games left over from the Kickstarter run of hand-humbered CIBs. They will be made available in the store.
https://hagens-alley-books.myshopify.com/collections/games-s...

Finally, the "non-Kickstarter" release will be created on a by-demand basis and will feature different artwork drawn by another amazing artist! Stay tuned for that.

Huge thanks to Roth and Sly Dog Studios for creating such an amazing game!

What does everything think about all of this craziness!?

@neodolphino - I haven't been able to put it down myself!

Now that all the copies of Black Box Challenge have been shipped out to backers, I'm gearing up for my final piece of the puzzle for the "Jeffrey Wittenhagen's" version....a NintendoAge Limited Edition Auction!

I am working with some awesome people to make this happen and there will some cool stuff with it that are really awesome. My goal is to go above and beyond a normal release and offer something that is a really cool collector's piece.

I'll be posting on social media as things come together and will launch the auction after I have all the items in hand and it's ready to go!
