I think this game has some balance issues. Here's why. I have now completed the normal mode, 104 levels, plus probably 100 relay levels, 35 Elite levels and another 30 endless levels. I have 118,137 coins and 765 diamonds. I have nothing to spend them on. I bought the $2.99 IAP but never spent any of the diamonds. In fact, of all my games, I have only spent 5 diamonds to continue one time when I was frustrated. My point being this, I think the drops need to be better in order to entice me to spend my coins. After all of those levels, I have only received 5 blue blueprints, one of which (Hydro Water Mk1) actually creates a green chest when you craft it. That's it. 5 blue items. There is no point in crafting any more green items so I just wait for something blue to drop, but they don't, aside from those diamonds, which are just components. I have hundreds of each component but nothing to build and nothing to spend money on. I just got a Diamond Edge +1 sword, which is higher than the one I have equipped, but you need to get a piece from level 42 elite so it is just going to sit there for awhile, if I even get the piece from that upcoming level. The reason why this is a problem is because I am almost done with the game. I beat all the normal levels and am almost halfway through the Elite levels. After that, there is no point in playing, unless you just want to grind forever with no purpose. Maybe in the last half of the Elite levels I'll get some of that purple stuff teased in the load screens or a few more blue items that are not held off until later levels, but what's the point in designing a game where you can't even get the good items until after you finish the game. At minimum, the daily chest rewards should be increased to entice me to spend my diamonds and perhaps some guaranteed drops should occurs at certain levels. Maybe new levels will be added someday so I can use and good stuff I gain at the end.
After logging in 24 days in a row, my log in progress just got reset for no apparent reason. Rrrr... Between that and not connecting to servers after levels, this game is testing my patience. *Update* They just released a big new update that fixes some connection issues, increases drop rates and upgrades some graphics. If you have been waiting, now is the time to play.
I've seen on their Twitter account that they are doing EU localizations, so hopefully it's coming soon? I think they can't wait much longer to go worldwide.

Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel I think similar thread has already been posted before. Anyway, here's a gameplay.
Did they ever add a way to pay to get rid of those timers? If they did I would be happy to spend money in this game! Billy
