    Yeah agree with GarBenjamin. Well done on your first polished game.
    It looks like all the assets are custom with is refreshing, and it's more than just mvp which is also refreshing. Some may frown upon this as wasted time but I think it shows an ability to push quality over minimum scope and rush to market.
    I like the fact - the assets are simple but not mvp also. Just right.
    And there are some extra features which add variety to the game.

    Very nice!

    Thank you both guys, means a lot!

    What does mean MVP ? (most valuable player or? ). Also you are right I do not consider this game as wasted time, I consider this as my most valuable game, because I learned how to polish the game and now learning how to market it proberly, then later when I finish my original game I'll have a lot of experience.

    In this game I learned how shops work and playerprefs, and now I can use similar algorithms in other things that are similar. I think that i learned just on this game more than someone who goes to University (though still depends on student).

    Once again thank you guys for support, means a lot! :)

    Mvp = Minimum viable product.
    Usually consisting of minimal visuals and minimal features to push to market.
    Its a completely different development mindset that caters to questionably morale IAP games, endless pay to play, and high investment on marketing over development.
    Although its a good practice to test mechanics imo I see it as having very little usefulness in developing 'real' games.

    You could also consider updating this game with v1.1 which is also a great learning experience - one I have yet to do. Maybe a power-up or two in addition to what is already included.

    I will publish game on 10th this month. I will send emails to press to cover the game, as I also want to learn marketing. That video abouve has 1500 views which is really great for me, I couldn't expect more.

    The game is 1.1 now. you can try it here https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.DarkBlack.DodgeRun2
