Hello !

It took me quite a long time to realize how to solve the last "puzzle", when 
you see the "source" and you must send robots on it to make it explode.

Actually, I won without trying to win :-) . I went up the source, saw the robot 
spanner, tried to control a few robots, saw them exploding on the source. So I 
tried to better control the robots so that they would avoid the source, but 
they kept exploding. Then I won. I was please, but that was unexpected, I 
didn't know at this time that I was doing the right thing to win.

Maybe there could be some teaching that sending robots on the source would make 
it explode ? Maybe there was and I missed it ?

Also, I am not sure about what I was supposed to do with the left part and the 
right part of the puzzle. Are there alternate ends ? I tried going those way, 
and kept dying, so I stopped :-) .

It also felt "not right" when I realized that after finishing it, the game 
would "reboot" to it's initial state. No way to prove to my friend I finished 
it ! No way to replay some level (to get more coins / finish it faster). Or did 
I miss something ??

BTW, I really liked this game, it's really more than just a "demo of how to 
write a game for Android". 

Thanks a lot for creating this

Next version has a level select that can be unlocked by beating the game once.  
If you've already beat the game those extras will be automatically available.
