Kong is definitely dead for me. Starting from today, I get an ugly updated website layout. Most of what used to make it a great place is gone. Chat is done for a long time, but now badges and comments are moved just to be fully unusable. Impossible to see if you already have badges, all games forced to same resolution...
This game was the last one I was still enjoying at kong, Not sure I will continue coming there.
I bought a single portably energy with a premium stamp (yes just one) and it unblocked helping friends with rocket launcher. Now I can use 5 free energy per friend, like in the old version
I had same issue with processing shop. It always displays step 4, but it actually starts the correct one. Before clicking, you have to make sure you have required materials by manually going to your current step with right arrow. Button is enabled even if you don't have materials. It this case, it does nothing.
