All that's needed to create a new level is a GitHub account so I can merge it in.

I'd be very grateful for all feedback.

Great idea, thanks! I should definitely do that. The APK is available on GitHub too. The game doesn't use Play Games Services; in fact it doesn't collect any information at all about the user.
