I too have spent a good ammount of cash on the game (without regret), and I think the new energy system is too expensive. Even though I have just over 3,000 gems stored up, they could go pretty fast with each play cutting into it. I love the game and have been looking forward to this update, but I have to say I'm not thrilled at the idea of so quickly whittling away my hard-earned stash.
We always take your remarks seriously, as you have already seen. We will find a solution to limit your frustration. You must understand that we must also earn money to continue the development of the game (and by the way, pay our bills). However, we offer 3 Super Gem every 3 hours for free, a button on the campaign mode map on the top left allows you to get them. Maybe this is not generous enough. We will think about a solution, thanks for your support and your feedback.
Happy to hear you're willing to consider our thoughts. You are surely a developer I want to succeed, and that sentiment is undoubtedly shared by many around here. As for the 3 free gems every 3 hours, that really isn't much when it takes 2 gems to play a single level - once. While I don't have a problem with some sort of "gem method," I think it needs to be more reasonable. Another poster mentioned his willingness to pay $1.99 to eliminate the gem system. If you were to incorporate a one-time payment method, I'd be willing to pay a good bit more than $1.99. But that's me. I'll pay a decent amount for any game that's this good; I just don't want to be nickel and dimed to death. Thanks for your hard work and attention to the forums. Much appreciated. ✌️
I don't have that much stuff. Wow. And I'm not complaining. I like this game and developer so much that I've spent actually $24 in the game and chose to watch well over 200 ads for the gems. I don't mind ads that are my choice to watch. Would you not agree that $24 plus 200 x30 seconds of data is not more than most people would spend on any game? I think it is. That is why I posted. While they need to make revenue, they need to also balance that with people who have given them revenue. I was hoping the game could see those that spent a good amount on the game so we wouldn't have to deal with any energy system. I'm encouraged by the devs comments. I will wait and see what happens.

Okay, just beat the campaign mode and received 3 sweet permanent bonuses! Advice to the developers: Perhaps the campaign mode should have been try a new mission every day like on a calander. If you succeed you open the mission for the next day. This would have made the 15 super gems more resonable to attempt 1 mission per day. Kind of like how "leap day" has a new level every day. Advice to the players: Don't try so hard; the campaigns end pretty quickly then it's back to rogue mode. It's a new strategy game with a lot of ground enemies. Time your warp jumps and there are only 16 levels and one bonus one. I don't recall how many super gems I used to beat the campaign; probably around 40. So if you don't want to watch ads just do 3 levels a day. The bonuses received can be used in rogue mode and a bonus for future campaigns. Please give campaign mode another try and think of it as a free add-on which it really is. The ads are there for peeps like me that want to rush through it but now I have to wait for the next campaign...lolz # I really think the 1 new mission a day is the way to go to keep players coming back everyday and keeping everyone happy with the ads and daily challenge. Or pay $5 for ad/super gem free IAP game like "leap day." It's really not that bad RANGERS! Go give it another try ## #RANGERS UNITE!!!
Thank you for your support ! I think we made a mistake on the price of the levels, it would be enough to lower the price or to give more every day to simply solve this problem. We have implemented the super gem to prevent players from finishing the first campaign too quickly, we have set 17 levels and we are aware that it is not much. We will find a solution.
We made the decision with Romain to make a quick update: All levels in the campaign mode will cost 1 SUPER GEM, outside level 16 and "?" Which they will be at 2 SUPER GEM. Hoping it's enough for now. We really want this new mode to be fun for everyone.
Is no revive rouge mode still coming? I've never been a fan of games that allow you to pay your way through.
First: Had I known the campaign consisted of only 17 levels (that which is seen on the initial screen, I presume) I might have been less likely to request a gem payment adjustment. I assumed the levels shown onscreen were the first batch of many, and therefore I expected to spend a much greater number of gems. Of course, new players wouldn't have a gem stash like mine, so under the old pay scale, it would still be a bit pricey for them to tackle the Campaign. Your new method of gem payment will surely help alleviate that. Second: Thanks again to the dev(s) for keeping in touch and implementing a more casual gem system.
Implement the new campaign mode, create levels, the first card and the boss took us a lot of time. Now that the main is done, we will add new campaigns every month! (In addition to adding new features to Rogue mode). So for now, there is only the first campaign available. It is important for us to discuss with you all, it is also thanks to you that the game becomes more and more good. We have to find a balance between your demands and our game design, it's exciting! The update will soon arrive on Android, it is already sent to Apple, we are just waiting for their validation.
No it's definitely FUN!! I love this game and I love you guys as developers. I have a price structure I spend on games. If I spend over $20 then you know I damn well love the game and devs. Hehehe. I believe devs should be compensated well for their work and I believe in paying for my entertainment. I'm an old school gamer. I grew up in the arcades. I love you guys. I can't wait for your other projects too. Billy
@storybird_jul, everyday I get a notification that my daily reward is ready but when I open the app it awards me with the first day reward. It has done this for about a week now. I haven't been checking it but recently turned on notifications and noticed this was happening.
