Bouncy Catapult King 4+

Wow what happened?

I logged in today and yes, new interface (coins?) but had lost all my previous points. Plus, no it’s not really free if you don’t want the new intrusion of ads.

Loved this simple, fun little pastime. Now, I am pretty disappointed. Plus, did I mention? All my points gone 😭.
=========================
UPDATED
Thank you for your follow up response. Yes, I seemed to have lost my levels, because it was the tutorial? Well, that’s okay. I don’t care.

I take back what I said. Now that I’ve gotten more used to this new version, I love it!!!!

The physics are more fun and realistic, and honestly, it is a delight. Sorry for my poor first response. I am changing this to FIVE STARS. Love it!
================
Another update: had a glitch going on and the tech support has been *very* responsive. I even decided to forgo the free version, because these folks deserve to be reimbursed for this game. Five stars, plus..

If the promo code worked, then there should be no ads at all. Try to "restore purchase" - there is a button in the settings window, it's a safe and free operation. If this will not help, then I'm afraid there is nothing else I can do. I'm really sorry to ruin your game experience, but we're forced to show ads, as there is no other way to make the game profitable (we can't develop it completely for free and "paid" model did not work).

Used To Be 2D Physics Fun Eternal

If you like to smash and break things for relaxation, this used to be great. It was a game tat was light fun that went on forever. It was nicely updated to add coins that allowed the users to change to new characters, the last of which provided maximum bouncing, although removing its free will. But with the coins cane ADs. I don’t mind mild ads as a way to make the developer money, nor mind the provided option to watch ads for coins. But what we got is abusive, with ads cutting off our game play, forcing users to double dismiss the same ad (a horrifying abuse IMHO), and long ads that I inspire the user to QUIT the game to spare their patience, then boot it again to get back to play. That’s idiotic to the point of my tossing the game off my iPhone. Sad.

Hi Derek, sad to hear such feedback, but I understand your point and I want to make the game better. I see, that you're using version 1.3.15 - today we've published a newer 1.4.1 version of the game, there were added 6 new characters, some new features and interstitial ads showing frequency was lowered. As for ads "forcing users to double dismiss the same ad" - I can't control which exact ad will be shown and some advertisers are playing dirty, but I don't see a way to solve this on my side. Just don't install games they're advertising, I hope this'll hurt their plans. The last thing - players can disable ads by one-time small purchase, if you'd like to support the game and play without ads, you can do so. If not, there is a promo-code letting you get "No ads" purchase for free 349FHXYMYJ4H.

Relaxing fun

I love this game. It’s pretty easy. The challenge doesn’t really ramp up much. It doesn’t keep score. It’s just relaxing fun when you’ve got a minute to play. No ads. No badgering to buy upgrades. No difficult levels trying to make you pay for upgrades. Simple and delightful. Nicely done!
