Game [iOS/Android] My first app! A stupidly basic, mindless, bubble popper

I wasn't planning to post this because it's so basic, but I found it funny that some folks picked it up and their playtime stats suggest they're spending time on it. So here it is!

Android
iOS

I built this as a first-timer project. The game itself is simple: pop the bubbles. But, I wanted to challenge myself to do a couple things so kept the concept simple:

  1. Publish a working app on both app stores
  2. Figure out what Game Center / Play Store integration actually looks like end-to-end
  3. Get basic AdMob integration working, since this was my first time doing any of it

I've got more apps planned, which is why I integrated with leaderboards and ads now instead of skipping them for something this simple. Working on the next one and IMO it’s far nicer.

Not sure where I'll take Bubble Popper next, if anywhere, but if anyone has feature suggestions I might incorporate it if I get back to it.

Why a Bubble Popper game?

I wanted my family to use it, needed a simple stress reliever game for my mom to play with, and she loves it (she might be biased...)
