Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SHOOT PLANETS at none against Melon Master's 10. SHOOT PLANETS also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). Melon Master's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
