The new boxes for Eight Elephants and Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice officially have the "Made in the USA" graphic. Whew. I want to be ordering proof copies by mid-June at the latest so I can make these available...

The box for Fireworks for the 4th has been updated too. Whew again. No need to re-order proof copy as it's just a minor change.

And Last Leaves has been transformed from a too-complex-to-prototype-or-sell-on-my-own beast into a cute and cozy Game Crafter-appropriate adaptation/evolution of Eighteen Eggs. The art is 80% done after just 1 day (thanks in large part to Last Leaves' original concept). The rules are 95% done. I managed to get them on 1 double-sided sheet. I'd rather more pictures, but a real rulebook for such a small game (48 square cards + hook box) just doesn't work pricing-wise. Hence the rules sheet. I can make a photo playthrough and/or video available online as well, but it is a simple game and can function with just a rules sheet. Sooooo yeah. That's where Last Leaves is at for now. Also, the box needs work, shocking, I know. The tuck box for Elements will be my next task. Boxes are hard. And this one needs to be a tuck box because of the 4 dice... Also, on a side note, the game's name is staying. Normally, I do avoid useing names that have already been used... but in this case... the name works and it'll be in good company with the 10+ Element/Elements games on BGG. At least I won't have to worry about trademark/copyright infringement since there's already so many Element/Elements games out there 😜.

Happy Monday and happy playing!
