Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows me to share Wonderful Handhelds with the community while it's still in development. As a solo developer working in my spare time, the feedback and support from players will be invaluable in refining the game and ensuring it meets the expectations of retro game enthusiasts. This approach also helps to fund the project's completion, bringing the full vision of Wonderful Handhelds to life.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game is expected to be in Early Access for approximately one year. This timeline allows for the addition of planned features, refinement based on player feedback, and the development of the two additional handheld games.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of Wonderful Handhelds is planned to include additional content, such as two more handheld games with unique gameplay mechanics, boxes, and manuals. These features are currently in development and are intended to expand the overall experience. Additionally, we aim to incorporate community feedback to improve and refine the game throughout the Early Access period. However, the final content and features may evolve as development progresses.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Wonderful Handhelds currently offers a complete experience with the first handheld game, Cursed Castle, including its box and manual. Players can enjoy the full gameplay of this initial game.

We plan to use the Early Access period to continue development and potentially add more content, including two additional handheld games. However, future updates and additions are subject to change based on development progress and community feedback. For more details on the features and content already implemented, please refer to the "About This Game" section.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price of Wonderful Handhelds may increase after Early Access to reflect the additional content and improvements made during the development process. Early supporters benefit from a lower price while also contributing to the game's development.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community involvement is a key part of developing Wonderful Handhelds. Players can provide feedback through the game's Steam page, participate in discussions, and share their thoughts and suggestions. Regular updates will keep the community informed about development progress, and their input will directly influence the game's refinement and the addition of new features.”
