    Do all characters have abilities? The samurai and survivor don't have buttons on the bottom of the screen.

    Hi everyone! Thanks again for your feedback it's really, really helping me understand in what direction we need to move in updates :) Special thanks to LordShad0wz and esty8nine!

    This week I'm working on the update for the game and here's what I'm planning to include:


    1. Reward players for multiple kills in one attack with more score
    2. Combo kills will spawn more coins as long as successful attacks remain chained
    3. Coin prices on characters will be lowered a bit to speed up progression
    4. Implement coin magnet feature (either temporary via video ad, permanent with IAP or both)
    5. Permanent double coins IAP
    6. If you purchase Remove Ads IAP, game will also reward you with some coins so you can use second chance feature for free at least few times
    7. Fix second chance bug when gameplay resumed while ad was still visible
    8. You will be able to control base arrow rotation speed in options screen

    Please let me know if you'd like to add anything else to this list!

    However, some of the features might get cut and not get into final update. All depends on how many I'll be able to implement before the end of the week, because I'd like to submit update to Apple on Friday so you can play it on weekends or early next week.

    And for 2nd update we're planning to add more content to the game :)

    Samurai and survivor do not have special abilities. All the other character do.


    Also, while coins magnet is not implemented, you can try the golden character -- he has a 100% coin drop chance on each attack, and in next update I'm planning to increase number of coins that spawn every time from 1 to 2 or 3.

    Why can't we get the free continue? Other games do this without an issue. Is it a programming problem?

    I like all of the other updates on the list! I'll be spending more money on the game. I appreciate you listening to feedback.

    Hey Billy!

    You mean forever free continue if you buy Remove Ads IAP?

    Yes. Normally when you buy no ads, if there is a continue that uses an ad to continue you get it for free. I can give you a list of games that do this on my phone right now.

    Ah, sorry, then I just misunderstood you in one of your previous posts! Sure, I can make second chance completely free (without ads) if you purchase Remove Ads feature :) As well as other similar features like coins double at the end of the session.

    Thanks again for the feedback and ideas, Billy. Really appreciate it!

    You should keep the ads for double coins at the end. If you unlock that you are basically giving away the coin doubler iap for free. Just my thought.

    Yea don't give away the coin doubler for free. You should be paid for your work. I totally agree with Sobriquet.

    I plan to purchase the permanent coin doubler IAP as well as the permanent Magnet IAP.

    This game is fun enough to warrant the purchases. Especially when you have a dev that's so responsive and frankly it's a damn fun game.

    Did I say it was fun? Lol. Just remember to switch those light sabers!!!

    Also, and you didn't mention this, but you shouldn't remove ads from the free coins either. Leave it there even for no ads purchasers. Some of us will still watch ads for free coins.

    Whoa I didn't see that. Yea Ill definitely watch ads for coins.

    I don't want forced ads. That's what I pay for when I pay for No ads. That and the free continue. I don't mind opt in ads that I can choose to watch for coins. I totally missed that. Again I agree with Sobriquet.

    Lol this poor dev must be like these friggin people. But I do put my money where my mouth is :)

    Thanks for the shout out dev =]

    Love the changes coming.

    I agree that if you purchase no ads we should get a free continue, which IS how a lot of similar games do it.

    I'll also be purchasing the coin doubler. Thanks for listening to us =]

    +1 for charecter abilities !

    Thank you guys for sharing your thoughts on how to make this game better! So infinite free second chances with Remove Ads purchase it is then :)

    Haha, I will! I'll have to change the names of those characters because of the copyright problems though. I'm thinking of "Space Knight" and "Dark Space Knight", what do you think?

    I just noticed that the continue button only pops up randomly. I had a score of 14 when I died but I didn't get the option to continue. Next game I got 3 points and I have me the option to continue. I would have totally used a continue at 14 points but not at 3.

    Hm, sounds like a bug. Second chance popup should display if you got score higher than 9 or 10. The only case when it won't display is if you got double coins popup first.

    Thanks for reporting this, sobriquet!
