Fun, But Updates Have Severe IssuesI used to play this game years ago and enjoyed it, and just got back into it recently. The updates over the years have been a mixed bag, to say the least.
- They nerfed the drop rate of gold and made it aggressively despawn if it goes off the top of the screen (which is frustrating because it violently flies up when spawned, and this can make the boss Magihoot simply fail to spawn gold).
- Darkmon, a resource Pettomon that is extremely important for raising rare pets, has gone from being interspersed with the far less useful Lightmon to seemingly absent from the game entirely (though the tip screen will still tell you about how useful it is).
- Some sort of bug allowed the game to take money for my purchases without giving them to me, and Spirit Bomb was sadly very unhelpful on that front, issuing me a small sum of diamonds once for the inconvenience and then subsequently ignoring me when I had multiple more charges post after trying to change payment processors on my end.
- Their ads have gotten totally obnoxious, with several being a full minute long followed by two countdown screens, at least one of which opens the App Store.
I was cautiously optimistic when the new update dropped. The storefront bug I was experiencing was fixed, which was nice. They added a bunch of stuff you could buy and called them "rewards", which was less nice. Overall, the shop UI and refresh changes are a net positive. Problem is, this update make the game a lot less stable.
The app has a chance of crashing when you back out of certain menus, like the menus to change equipment or Pettomon. This will undo a lot of progress, sometimes even all progress that has been made since the app opened. What I find extremely annoying is that this includes rewards earned through ads. I have had it crash multiple times after I did my seven free prize wheel spins, I have lost several Eggs from League to this bug, and I had it crash after using an ad to quadruple my gold from a story level, losing about 45,000 gold (not counting the chest from the level).
Sky Champ is a fun game that I very much want to enjoy, but Spirit Bomb has been making it very clear how much they value profit over user experience. While not surprising, it's just very sad and frustrating.
(Oh, and since my previous experience with Spirit Bomb customer service tells me they won't care about user problems so long as they get their money, I should add that this crash bug also undoes pulls from chests and eggs in the Shop, failed equipment upgrade rolls, and prize wheel results/resets. So, if you don't like what you pull, just change both of your Pettomons super fast and back out to negate the results and reroll! Odds are rigged/dishonest, anyway; may as well exploit this in our favor until they fix it.)
