Anyway, looking good man. Graphics seem sharp. I know it can be hard to actually finish a game and polish it so grats for that.

I'm a testament to that; started countless, something in your life changes, and you shelve it for years. 13 years later and all I've finished is Polarity Pinball. Lol.

Yeah, took 2-3 weeks to actually redo a lot of this game. I learned a lot, even if it is just a Flappy Bird+. :P

I bet, especially with porting it to different hand held devices; go from using keyboard to analog input. Messed around with it a little in Unity (and XNA, wrote my rich text box scrolling using the mouse wheel); neat stuff; although you're playing with screen taps and swipes.

> ? Improved ads.

The only way to improve ads is to remove them. Also, clones still suck. If you feel that your game is better, and only inspired, then I'd change the thread title to reflect that it's inspired, and not a direct clone. As it stands, I think it's cheap and tacky, because it's a clone.

I improved ads by making them show and work better. Ads are not that bad on this app. The game is an experiment, not a way for us to make cash. We're using the knowledge and experience from this game for other games we make on mobile.

I am not the thread starter , so I cannot edit it.
