Handmancers Early Access Roadmap 2026

Apr 17

Hey everyone! ːhappystar2022ː

We’ve got something important to share today.

Early Access Roadmap 2026

As we’re getting closer to launch, we want to give you a clear look at what we’re planning for Handmancers during Early Access.

What we’re focusing on:

Bug Fixing and Optimisation

Resolving issues, improving performance, and keeping the game stable will be a top priority throughout Early Access. We’ll be actively reacting to problems as they come up.

Quality of Life

• Gameplay improvements
• UX and UI improvements
• Balance adjustments

The Adventure Grows

• Map art overhaul
• Events overhaul
• Artifacts becoming actual rings

Handmancers United

• More Gems
• More Artifacts
• New playable character

Your feedback has already shaped Handmancers in a huge way, and it will continue to do so. We’re listening, adapting, and evolving the game together with you.

Early Access launches May 5, 2026

We’re getting really close now. Thank you for being here, for testing, for giving feedback, and for pushing the game forward with us.

Mar 9

Hey everyone!

After that hiccup with the previous announcement and hasty rescheduling literally next day, we are ready to announce new (and the final one) release date.

So, here goes:

Handmancers launches in Early Access on May 5, 2026

No further delays expected.

Check out the Trailer Here:

As mentioned in the previous message, additional development time will go towards more content, better QA and additional Quality of Life features.

There are some special treats we are working on right now. Looking forward to sharing those with you soon!

EA Release delayed

Feb 21

Hi everyone!

We have some news about our release date.

Our original plan was simple: drop Handmancers during #TurnBasedThursdayFest. You watch the showcase and boom - “Handmancers Available Now." Perfect, right?

Then literally the next day we saw the news. Slay the Spire 2 is launching on March 5.

And let’s be honest - you’ll be playing it, we’ll be playing it, everyone will be playing it. We’re huge fans and insanely excited. But launching a deckbuilder the same week as Slay the Spire 2? Yeah… we’d get absolutely crushed. Buying two deckbuilders in the same week? In this economy? Not happening.

So here’s the deal: We’re moving our release date slightly further into the future.

We haven’t locked the exact day yet, so make sure to catch the #TurnBasedThursdayFest showcase - we’ll announce the new date there. Huge thanks to the organizers for letting us pivot the announcement last minute.

The upside? We’re not just waiting around. More time means more polish, more balance work, and more content. Including a brand new Boss that we originally planned for the first post-launch update - now coming at release instead.

Honestly, this feels like the right call. We’d rather launch Handmancers at its best than get instantly buried under a legendary sequel.

Thanks for understanding - and go enjoy Slay the Spire 2. We definitely will.

Cheers!

Great Possibilities

I'm actually really enjoing this game. The deck logic is simple but very much customizable. I'd would like to have a pvp mode, but for current logic of the game that would not work, couse one of the players has to play before the other. I don't really like the step when you convert a card to another sign, I'd like id it was skippable and get something else. And it would be great if I could attach and remove the powerups on the cards in a menu so I can always get the powerups that I want and then in a sec...

Can't win boss fight? Also, game thoughts.

I don't know if I am doing something wrong, but I run out of cards to use half way through the boss fight. Is this fight not winnable in the demo? Game seems cool, but the demo is pretty bare bones. The art style is what drew me in, it looks like it has potential. The rock, paper, scissor aspect is a different take to deck-builders i'll give you that, but I hope there is more to it then just matching what card/color win or lose against each other. Main complaint after playing the demo is there is only o...
