I think some particle effects to give you a hint as to what apples will drop would make a big difference.
Doing this in 2-3 days though is awesome.

Hey MarcusFromOz,
Thank you for the comment! With the most recent update, some major lighting issues were resolved. I also increased the number of particles produced for the falling leaves effect that is used to indicate where the apples are falling.
Hopefully those apples are more noticeable now :)
Thank you for playing!
Carly
