A LITTLE NOTE FOR YOU

“Saw this.
Thought of you.”

ONE TOY. ALL YOURS.

A sample note. Your message is shared in the app.

THE SMALL PRINT, LESS SMALL

Good
questions.

Here’s the short version.

So… what does it actually do?

Retro4000 is a little sound toy. Tap a key to start its sound, then tap the same key to stop. Switch keys to change the sound. That’s the point: a small, tactile moment of play.

Why does the website stop after two plays?

This is a two-start preview. Starting a sound uses one play; stopping it does not. Switching to another sound uses another play. The counter is saved in this browser’s local storage. It is a local demo limit, and clearing that storage resets it.

Is there a subscription?

No. The iPhone app is free to install, with a one-time purchase to unlock the full toy. The final price will appear in your local App Store. No purchase is taken on this website.

How does a gift work?

Buy a prepaid gift inside the app. Write a message or choose a preset, then send its one-time code using your iPhone’s share sheet. The recipient installs Retro4000, enters the code, and sees your message. They pay nothing further.

Can I download it yet?

The App Store link is coming soon. You can play the preview here now. The download button will become available once the app is live.

Where can I find the community?

We’re setting up a Telegram home for Retro4000. The link below will become available when it’s ready.

A LITTLE CLARITY

Your privacy.

The preview stores its play count in your browser’s local storage. Clearing that storage resets the local count.
