I looks wonderful!
I am a Pogo player and I hate having to stay looking at the phone, under the rain or with cold hands or bloody sun 😂
You write “no mtx, no ads”. How do you plan to monetize your app ? Will it be a one time payment or with DLCs?

Free to play so you can first try it out before making a purchase decision. Then you can either play it single player with single purchase, or if you want to play it online it’s affordable subscription. This is the least predatory way of doing monetization that in my mind works great both for the players and makes sure we can support the game for long.
And thank you!

Will be there a way to purchase or subscribe outside of Google Play? Or even use the game without google services?

Probably. I’m not too keen on paying the 30% Google Play tax anyhow, as that cost would fall to be paid by the players with increased subscription cost. I want to keep the subscription as affordable as possible. I’ll try my best to find ways around it, probably easy enough on Google Play but might prove to be more difficult on AppStore.
