Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Astro Glider at none against Superhero Captain Thunderpants's shown. Astro Glider also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). Superhero Captain Thunderpants's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
