nice job devs with hiding that after reaching some level you can buy a single use helm for eggs, basically highscore based game which gives you possibility to buy additional hit for premium currency. so it means anyone who buys a dozens of eggs can use it in every game session and therefore get better chances getting good scores. you can say that you can earn eggs for free too, sure but still you can not buy a helm every game. it would be ok if you could see a helm option at the beginning of the game, so everyone could see that there is such option and skip playing this game if they dont like such systems. but it's not, it looks like free game where you can buy iap to remove ads and have money to buy few heroes or maps. so again clever idea hiding this fact, so more players would buy iaps in this game.

The ability to buy up to 1 additional life per game is NOTHING near the IAP corruption of titles such as WELDER or Flight Control Rocket where you can prolong the game indefinitely via IAP based purchases.

it does not make system in this game better if in some other games it is even more f up, especially it was not exactly the point of my post. you also can make opposite example with halfbricks jetpack where the similar system is more fair and therefore better.

True. I'm in general AGAINST consumable IAPs so I am on your side on this, don't worry.

I've been playing this a lot, but run into a minor issue. I've levelled up the 8Bit ninja to 15 but the badge for Grinder doesn't show up. Also he's stopped gaining experience. At least, the bar under the name has stayed black with no experience being visible despite continuing to play. Do you have to reach level 16 (i.e. complete level 15) for that badge?

Which background are you guys finding the best to purchase? I have enough for the 20% Dragonfruit cave, but I am wondering if the XP one is better? I've buffed my bonus XP token to give +20 every time I get it now, so maybe I should just get the @0% Dragonfruit cave....
