### 1/5 — No offline income

*2019-10-28, version 1.3.7*

Was fun at first, but then I randomly stopped getting income while I am away from the game. It tells me how much money I earned while I was away, but it just disappears and doesn’t get added to my coin amount.

### 1/5 — Won’t load

*2019-10-13, version 1.3.3*

Loading screen hangs on Loading Saved Data. Never played so there is no data to load.
