It is not designed to be taken seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can download the game for free! If you like it and have the means you can make a small donation or maybe&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/madsoxgames.itch.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">check out my commercial games<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CONTROLS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Standard RPG rules apply. Direction buttons move you around and use button A to interact. Retro Handheld Simulator resets as the days pass, so it pays to revisit things you have already interacted with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NARRATIVE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend reading the narrative at least the first time around. However, narratives can be toggled on\/off with SELECT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>COMPATIBILITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game is for the Game Boy Original and should be playable on any Game Boy or emulator that can play .gb files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A .pocket file is now available for the Analogue Pocket<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On some handhelds you can copy the zip itself. This will ensure the .gb file doesn&#8217;t get corrupt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CREDITS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Game: Paul M<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artwork: Paul M<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Music: Mr. V<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tools: GB Studio by Chris Maltby<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Retro Handheld Simulator is a short, silly game making fun of the retro handheld community (including myself).
