Enjoyable update :)

Finished it about 30 mins ago with 3 stars on everything and a couple of achievements along the way (not sure if it is hidden or not, but one involves bouncing on the drums 20 times in one level… Call the ewoks I think it was called).

Looking forward to the pigstar or whatever they call it.

Jay, which pit are you speaking of? The one in Jabba’s palace, or the one in the desert? Either way, it obviously got skipped. I’m slightly spazzing out because they’re releasing Star Wars II before finishing SW 1, with the 2nd Death Star. IT’S ALL OUT OF ORDER, THE SKY IS FALLING, WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!

ABSW 1.4.0 available for Amazon, but there seems to be a bug with it. When you try to enter the new Endor levels it force closes.

Rank: Champion with 3855 points

I cannot enter Cloud City anymore, either. It force closes and will not even enter the level area. I can enter Moon of Endor, but when I click on level 1 to play it, it force closes. It I sent a message to Rovio.

This might be a bug on android, POTJ is free for me. i never paid for it, just finished the first level a few months ago, but now second is unlocked. when i finished second, i cant click on the double arrow in the score screen (he went to the pay screen for POTJ, but when i return to the level screen from POTJ, third level is unlocked and playable etc. etc.

Also another little bug level 15 is not an planet icon.

@AMslimfordy hmm after finishing the last level 30 from Moon Of Endor (not 3-starring!) POTJ is stated as UNLOCKED in the shop. I’m free to play it right now. must be a bug because the text in the shop isn’t changed since the last update ‘Buy now or unlock by 3-starring every level’

Um… why am I getting video ads with this update? I paid for No Ads.. and I have sound turned off. However, before some levels I get a video ad with sound on full! That’s breaking every like every app rule ever…

Not a big fan of that change. That makes 2 apps on Android now… (Rio is the other, but it has no Ad Free purchase option… sound though…)

You should contact Rovio about that.

By kathi17 (@kathi17)

Hi Mike, did you ever install the Play Store version with ads? I have the ad free Amazon version as well, but since I had installed the Play Store version once when the Amazon version was very late, the Play Store will automatically download the updates, and they won’t be ad free.

I don’t mind this because this way I don’t have to wait for the newest version, then I just download the Amazon one when it’s available and the ads are gone.

Maybe that is what is happening on your device?

By Mike

I have always used the Play Store version. I purchased the Ad Free option from the little in-game store.

I’ve sent a message to Rovio, We’ll see where that goes.

Rank: Boss Hog with 13330 points
By kathi17 (@kathi17)

I saw that in game purchase thing and clicked on it earlier. It said I already purchased it, so now I agree, it must be a bug, because I’m getting ads too.

Jabba’s Palace only being a cutscene is extremely disappointing. It’s half the movie! (And also my favorite part of all the movies.) That and Endor only being 30 levels, instead of the normal 40, makes me think that Rovio is just trying to finish as fast as they can and, after the DSII update, will abandon this game in favor of SW2. I hope I’m wrong. :(

On the plus side what I have seen of the Endor update is very good. But I think I’ll be waiting for the PC update to play them. At least I will have the Space and Original updates plus the last few episodes of Rio to keep me busy till then.

Rank: Debriefed with 1280 points

I agree with you. I’m sad because it’s not playable Jabba’s Palace. It’s just disappointing, really, I was hoping this battles. I don’t want to forget this game :(

Rank: Master Slinger with 7205 points
By TruckDriver (@truckdriver)

@SnTrooper There could be a technical problem which might have forced Rovio to insert a cutscene in order to make the release date, or it could be that such levels may be part of a future update. We just won’t know until it happens.

Abandon ABSW? I don’t think so. Look how long it took Rovio to land an update for Rio. It may be a while before we see anything past DSII, but that doesn’t mean all that much, in and of itself.

I don’t think you’re doing yourself any favors in waiting for the PC version of The Endor levels, but that’s entirely up to you. Speaking for myself, I find that the Endor levels have a slightly different playability “flavor,” (for lack of a better word), but still as enjoyably challenging as ever.

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

I REALLY hope I’m wrong and they do continue after DSII. I’ve been anticipating Jabba’s Palace since I got the game back in November so them skipping it has really soured the game for me. If I finish off the other games before the PC update I definitely will play it (and probably enjoy it) but until then I really don’t care. Besides if they hadn’t had the game as a “Free App of the Week” I would have had to wait for the PC update anyways.

By Morph416

Has anyone else noticed.. that in the Google Play version (Android).. that level 15 is using the graphics for the monitor (cut scene) and not the metallic orb? (or whatever it’s supposed to be lol).. There is a blank orb sitting right next to it, that I believe is supposed to be the level.

I’d take a screen shot of it, but my phone isn’t able too.

By Morph416

After going back to double check, the icons are actually switched. The cut scene icon opens the level, and vice versa.

I noticed that Han has a new colored blaster. Not sure if it more powerful or just a different color. Either way, it is backwards compatible with the previous levels. For example Tatooine, 1-17, Han’s blaster is blue. His old blaster was red.

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

It is more powerful. The third shot now goes straight through a piece of metal instead of bouncing off, for example.

Rank: Sling God with 33610 points
By sparty83 (@sparty83)

May need to revisit a BUNCH of the older episodes. There may be more points sitting out there with the new blaster.

Rank: Master Slinger with 7205 points
By TruckDriver (@truckdriver)

I too saw the color change, and I wondered about it. Since you mentioned backwards compatibility, I’m gonna have to do the same!

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

I think I may have been wrong. I just replayed some of the early levels and It didn’t seem any stronger. But I was able to get slightly better scores on some of them. I think it might be that it does not damage material any more than before (like the demo lead me to belive) but each blast lasts longer.

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

I was wrong again. I just tried playing the same levels on the PC version and the new blaster is definitely stronger but only with wood and glass not metal. It cuts through wood much easier than the red one does but damages metal about the same. I think I was correct about it being able to bounce more times than before though.

By Morph416

PC Version? I’m under the impression that at this time, it hasn’t been released for PC yet.. only those listed in the OP.

Rank: Boss Hog with 14280 points
By Josm (@josm)

@Morph416 he means once you get the new blaster, you can use him in earlier levels. And while it is not for PC yet, he means he compared it on the PC with the old blaster

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

Yes. I played some of the early levels (1-17 through 1-20 to be specific) with the updated IOS version then I played the same levels on the not updated PC version and the blaster is definitely stronger. It’s especially noticeable on 1-19. The shots bounce around a lot more.

Everybody’s complaining about Jabba’s Place… what about the speeder bike chase?!? It was perfect material for a moving boss fight, and the best scene in the Original Trilogy! I’m pretty irked about that not being there. Otherwise, though, this is an amazing update.

Rank: Sling God with 31355 points
By SnTrooper (@sntrooper)

It wouldn’t have worked as a boss fight since it would have had to be at the beginning instead of the end. Maybe the missing ten levels were going to be it. Maybe in a “Red’s Mighty Feathers” type gameplay that was axed after the chilly reception that got.

This is an awesome update :D have to say, the best part about this isn’t the Ewoks, isn’t the log swinging, isn’t the “Shield is down” achievement…

it’s the Pork Side propaganda! Got to love Pigpatine’s ghostly visage cackling at you on the level select screen :) I note that for all their efforts, the Empire’s still lagging way behind on support.

Also, it seems that Rovio have yet again got the game spot on. Ewoks have no purpose but to be cute and cuddly and sell toys, just as in the original Lucas marketing plan :)
