Rise Fig: thoughts, plans and today's update

I want to share my ideas and feelings about how the game is growing. There is a very interesting question: why are some games interesting to people and others are not? Making something people find interesting, and ideally useful, is a huge topic. I am only at the start of exploring it.

I also found out that ads in Telegram and ads in Google Play pay very differently. AdsGram, which I connected in Telegram, pays almost a thousand times less than AdMob in Google Play.

What changed in the game today

• The market now has original seeds of all 12 species for points: common 15, rare 35, epic 60, legendary 100.
• A new full all-time leaderboard. Points come from your mahjong level, garden level, crossbreeding and chlorella.
• Game bots are removed from the leaderboard, so only real players are there now.
• Fixed: the leaderboard did not open from the 🏆 icon at the top.
• Fixed: a bought fourth garden bed could disappear. Players who lost it got it back, plus 80 water.
• Fixed: "Shuffle" and "Magnet" work again in mahjong.
• On the field you can now drag plants. A long press opens the plant card, and the battle button moved to the top.

My plans

• Today I will send rewards for several new posts about the game.
• Reply to comments.
• Move on to the market: buying game items (plants) for STEEM, and selling them.

Right now in the game you can sell only after crossbreeding. I think players should be able to sell at every stage, starting from seeds. I also want to make it possible to buy and sell resources.

A question for you

What would you like to buy and sell in Rise Fig: seeds, grown plants, hybrids or resources? And what makes a game interesting for you? Please write in the comments.
