***********************************
Doodle Jump is an amazingly addictive and fun platform jumping game that lets you compete against other players around the world.

As you keep jumping higher and higher, the platforms start moving, the monsters, UFOs, black holes and other obstacles start appearing and the game gets progressively more challenging.

Along your way up, you will see markers on the side of the screen indicating how high other players of Doodle Jump around the world have managed to get to. This in-game high-score markers feature is a first among the iPhone games and is beloved by both the players and reviewers.


FEATURES:
- broken, moving, and disappearing platforms
- JET PACKs, PROPELLER HATS, and springs that fly you higher
- UFOs that will abduct you unless you shoot them
- black holes that will suck you in if you get close
- various cool monsters that you need to shoot
- jump on top of the monsters to bring them down MARIO-style
- global and local leaderboard
- in-game score markers
- Facebook connect
- challenge friends
- SECRET easter egg created in collaboration with POCKET GOD.

How to play:
Tilt to move left or right, tap the screen to shoot.

*Please don't drive and play Doodle Jump!

***** Your 5-star iTunes ratings and reviews keep the updates coming! Thanks for playing Doodle Jump! *****

Doodle Jump is most likely the best platform jumping game created for the iPhone. If you're a fan of Papi Jump, this game takes platform jumping to the next level. It's impossible not to enjoy this app. Gameplay is simple: Tilt the iPhone to make your creature move from side to side as it jumps in order to land on platforms. If you miss a platform, the game is over.

The real fun comes from the ways that Doodle Jump differs from other games in its genre. There are brown, cracked platforms that split open as you jump on them. There are light blue platforms that move from side to side. There are power ups, such as the propeller hats, springs, and jet packs, which send you soaring higher up the level with little effort. There are even enemies that must be shot at by tapping the screen as you jump.

It's hard to put down this game. The cartoon-like graphics and sound effects add to this game's infinite charm. High scores are listed globally and locally, with an option to challenge friends with the game via facebook. There's a strong replay value here, which makes the game fully worth purchasing.

Overall impression: 9/10
Value for your money: 9/10
