Serene Orbs is a unique puzzle game where you merge identical bubbles to form larger ones. Each fusion helps you progress through a dreamlike and musical environment. As this is my first game, I would appreciate feedback on the presence and frequency of ads, as well as all other aspects of the application, to ensure they don't disrupt the ambiance. I'm exploring the best monetization model to make the game free and ad-free, relying solely on in-app purchases, and allowing future collaborations with artists for new creations.

It's always one step behind. The Watchtower is right behind you, and the moment you slow down, it catches up. Watchtower Run is an endless chase through city streets, forest trails, and shopping malls. Dodge obstacles, grab power-ups, and keep moving. - Three hand-drawn worlds, each with its own hazards - A roster of characters, each with a unique ability - Endless mode, daily runs, and unlockable tower skins - A blueprint art style unlike anything else out there Watchtower Run is really a game about social anxiety: that feeling that something is always right behind you, ready to catch up the second you let your guard down. It started as an inside joke about a tall friend who always ended up behind the group, and grew into something a little more honest. Don't let it through.
