Hi @GranBarb I still have them in my game. It might be testing again. Not sure. We will have to wait until Monday when Queen Mia is back to the office. I will ask her to find out more for us.
And I totally agree, it is nice to watch them all over the screen. It makes me laugh. I also understand those who were annoyed by it as we are all different. That's why the "tap to skip animations" feature is handy, you can choose the one you like.
Completing the stars in the other levels while waiting, I have all stars in the first 20 chapters, and I'm currently trying to get the 3rd star in level 399 to complete at 100% chapter 21
Doing this I also noticed the difference again, levels 1500+ are really harder than lower levels.
