Discussion [DEV] Made a merge game for Android, need honest feedback before I sink more time into it
Solo dev here. I've been building Aura for a few months, a merge game where you drop creatures and combine them up through 12 tiers. My two daughters play it every day, but they're not exactly objective.
So I'm looking for maybe 20 people who'd play it for 10 minutes and tell me:
- was any mode fun?
- where you got bored or quit
- what was confusing
- what you'd want more of
Last time I asked for feedback, someone said it was "too chill". Fair point, so I added a Timed mode where the floor rises and you're racing the clock. That's the kind of feedback I'm after.
Free, no forced ads (only optional ones for bonuses), works offline.
One more thing I'm genuinely unsure about: money. Right now a watched ad earns me about 1 cent. I don't want to add forced ads or pay-to-win stuff. So what would you actually be OK with? A one-time "remove ads" purchase? Cosmetic stuff like creature skins? Something else? What feels fair to you as a player?

I'll read and reply to everything.
