Great job so far

Hey, I’ve got a decent bit of respect for the game, so wanted to just add some ideas and pointers for you. Bouncing ball and freeze are ridiculously strong purely because they allow you to get keys more often. Not wrong necessarily that that is a strategy, but want to mention it. Please add an option to improve up to legendary with an add, even if you remove it from the pool regularly it’ll feel better than the forced ad. Also, currently if you get a legendary there is a forced ad whether or not you click it, which feels a little bad as well. I really like your upgrade system, just would love to see it expanded on! Another mention with your ads is that sometimes they just repeat the same ad over and over again, I have no experience there but if possible please allow it to rotate through ads or something. Ads are already mind numbing, last thing you want is to make it worse. Great job overall!! Please continue to work on projects and make this one larger and better <3

Fun game with too few levels with no end in sight

This game is incredible fun to play. However, it’s been months and they still haven’t created more than four levels. This is particularly frustrating because they are still advertising on other apps and mini transactions are included in the game. Clearly they are making money from their customers, so why not at least try to keep the game going? With almost two thousand reviews, this is clearly and loved and well received game. I’m confused as to why it was even released if they weren’t planning on actually keeping the game running. Unfortunately for me, the game is so addictive that I just keep playing the same four levels over and over and over again.

Ads and levels

It’s a fun game, don’t get me wrong, however the legendary upgrades in game only appear just before an ad break, and to obtain said upgrade you have to watch an ad. Meaning there’s 2 consecutive ads each time this happens. Kind of annoying. Also it seems it’s been over 2 months that there have only been 4 levels. I understand game development takes time but I would assume it does not take 2 months to create 1 additional level? It’s not as if the game is incredibly complex with its mechanics and graphics. If the double ad would disappear and updates were released more frequently this would be the perfect game :)

Too little to be worthwhile

Concept is simple - ball bounces and breaks rings, it’s your job to control the cashflow and damage rate and buff your bounces along the way.

All the ingredients of a good addictive little app - and it is fun to be sure.

But as with any of these games that throw up 400 ads a second to encourage you to buy the ad-free variants, there isn’t enough substance beyond that initial hook.

Four levels with no updates or releases in months doesn’t pass muster.

Seems like it’s a well-polished trap to hoodwink you out of your ad-free money.

Great Game, However

Solid game, enjoyable to play without being too annoying with a lot of ads. However, the game glitches when I get to around lvl 90 on cash income not being able to click a card at all resetting all progress. This also happened when I beat a lvl and I couldn’t end the lvl having me to reset the game even though it counted as 100%.
