When I first get into the game I’m exited to play it, but different game add pop up. I would if I were the company to play ads of different games you make. Other than that it’s very entertaining to play

### 4/5 — Things to add

*2025-07-04, version 1.1.1*

Hey so I just wanted to say a recommendation that would improve the game a lot the leaderboard system so i am having trouble with the leaderboard and the way it’s layed out and also the friend system if you. Could send a link to people to download the game and become friends also with adding new maps and difficulties and maybe a settings tab.
