Could be a great game, there is not enough fruit deployed to win level 11, have fun with the first few

Levels are about 10 seconds long and between each of them is a 10-15 second long ad. If the ads were optional for bonuses I’d have no issue but you basically are just downloading an ad viewer. Edit after developer response: While I’m guessing Apple codes the ad mechanisms, “skippable” ads have become very oppressive over the past year. After 5 seconds you can skip the video, but then you have another static image that you can’t skip for 5 seconds, and then if you misclick the tiny and hidden X it will bring up the App Store for the ad’s game. It’s basically a traditional 30 second ad with all the action it requires to “skip.” There are a number of games I happily watch full ads on (and end up downloading some of the ad games) when they’re implemented appropriately. Forced “skippable” ads, in my opinion, are predatory and an easy way to piss off your players.
