hi, I'm really happy that you enjoyed the game, and you taking the time to share your thoughts in such a in-depth and helpful manner means more to me than you can imagine
some of the things you mentioned are already being worked on and I'm sorry about the delay. I actually released the game with a "save/load" feature, but the way I made it was causing issues for a lot of people, so I temporarily disabled it while I reworked it.
The new version is mostly done, but since the old version was working on the devices I tested too, I'm kind of taking some time on the testing before I release it xd sorry...
the cilan brothers appearing during grand finals is a bug, it will be fixed in the next version (1.5)!!
I love your idea about starting the game with a custom team. I'll find a way to add it to game for sure.
I really appreciate the awesome feedback, I'll really take it into account for future updates (not PR speak I promise LOL). This is my "biggest" game so far so I know it has a lot of rough edges, and I'm really thankful for the pointers you've given me
