The more ads that are on the screen, the bigger the coin multiplier. But be careful, the ads obstruct your screen space.
Don't forget to visit the in-game shop for upgrades and to turn off 'ads'!

Think the art is a little all over the place. I would suggest to find / generate a color scheme and go from that.
Would be cool if you could shoot to maybe destroy the adds.
Anyway, well done.
- Clever idea, love the idea of ads that block your view as the game goes on

Cons:
- I wish the ads were more costly to remove and would build up more slowly.

Really unique take on the theme, wish I'd thought of it :)
- I think the advertisements filling up the screen fit the theme well enough, so the deadly explosion staying on the battlefield felt unnecessary.
- One upgrade stat that I would have liked to have seen is fire rate.
- The subscribe toggle in the shop felt like it should have been a "buy to remove current ads" option (it essentially was that because the ads went away as soon as you paid 5 bucks).
- When I died and restarted, I got to keep all my money. I was unsure if this was a bug or not.
I very much enjoyed my time with this. Great job!
Otherwise, amazing game and I had a lot of fun playing.
If you don't bother take a look at our game when we focused on Graphics and visuals and see the results that we got:
