Each Tapwave service handles one specific part of the hyper-casual game journey. You're not locked into a sequence — start wherever makes sense and move at your own pace.

How it works

One service. One deliverable. One price.

We don't offer packages that bundle things you didn't ask for. Each service is self-contained — you know exactly what you're getting before you commit, and the price listed is the price you pay. If your situation calls for more than one service, they can be used in sequence or independently. There's no requirement either way.

Single-Loop Prototype
Service 01 $180

Single-Loop Prototype

A compact service that shapes one simple, repeatable hyper-casual loop into a playable form. Made for creators chasing that easy-to-learn feel without overbuilding. It covers one core mechanic, a clean tap or swipe input, and a quick build to test retention casually with friends.

You receive a small, focused starting point — something real to put in front of players and learn from. It respects both your time and your budget.

One core mechanic, designed to loop cleanly
Tap or swipe input — single interaction style
Playable build ready for informal testing
Brief notes on what to watch for when testing
Fixed price — $180, no surprises

Service 02 $540

Casual Game Kit

A development service that assembles a short hyper-casual title with a few light levels and a tidy progression curve. Suited to small teams exploring the casual space at a relaxed pace. Work includes the core loop, simple difficulty pacing, and a basic results screen.

The aim is a complete, honest little experience rather than a sprawling project — all kept gentle and approachable. Something a player can pick up, get through, and want to try again.

Core loop with light difficulty progression
Multiple levels — a handful, designed to hold attention
Results screen (score, outcome, replay prompt)
Clean handoff with a short explanation of the build
Fixed price — $540, confirmed before work starts

Soft-Launch Helper
Service 03 $320

Soft-Launch Helper

A supportive service for tidying a casual build before a quiet test release. Intended for developers who want a calm checklist rather than a rushed scramble. It covers light analytics setup guidance, store text review, and friendly notes on first-session flow.

We keep advice measured and easy to act on whenever you feel ready. No countdown, no pressure — just a thoughtful review of the things that tend to matter in those first player sessions.

Light analytics setup guidance (what to track and why)
Store listing review — title, description, screenshots guidance
First-session flow notes — onboarding and initial feel
Written notes you can act on at your own pace
Fixed price — $320, no add-ons after the fact

Questions

A few things people ask

Can I use more than one service?
Yes. The services are designed to work independently, but they also sit naturally alongside each other — a prototype can lead to a full kit, which can lead to a soft-launch review. You can come back for the next step whenever you're ready.
What if I'm not sure which service fits?
Just describe your situation in the contact form and we'll suggest the right fit. There's no commitment in reaching out — it's just a conversation.
Are the prices really fixed?
Yes. The price confirmed at the start of a project is what you pay at the end. There are no hourly overages or late-stage additions unless you explicitly request a scope change.
What engine or platform do you build in?
That's part of what we discuss in the initial conversation. We'll cover this when we align on scope — the right tool depends on the mechanic and your intended platform.
How long does each service take?
Timelines are discussed during scoping and depend on complexity and feedback cycles. The prototype is naturally shorter than the full kit. We'll give you a realistic estimate before work begins, not an aspirational one.
