Forums - Microsoft - Kinect Doodle Jump game announced

Eurogamer

Mobile mega-hit Doodle Jump is heading to Kinect and Xbox Live Arcade.

Developer Lima Sky said there are "development plans" in place but mentioned no time-frame for release.

Doodle Jump has been sold 10 million times on mobile platforms. It's a vertically-scrolling platform game. You tilt the mobile device (BlackBerry's don't tilt) and the Doodler hero moves faster. The idea is to keep going for as long as possible. Why? Because you'll get an even higher score!

How exactly this will work on Kinect remains to be seen.

Lima Sky also mentioned that a free multiplayer update for Doodle Jump on iPhone will be released "very soon". The iPad version of Doodle Jump "is, well, still in the works".

"After such incredible first two years, it is safe to say Doodle Jump has exceeded even our wildest imaginations," said Lima Sky founder Igor Pusenjak - he who tried to purge the App Store of all games with the "doodle" prefix.

Finally, a hard core game for Kinect! They showed us haters. :P

Seriously though, if it as fun as the ipod version, it should be at least decent.

Those AAA's keep rolling in huh?

Juuuust kidding :) .  How will this even work?



i bought jump doodle for my iphone -- at a $0.99 it was a bit overpriced.  it was fun for a couple minutes but the game is really really REALLY shallow.



This and angry birds are most over hyped games on the iPhone IMO

Stupid Zombies > Angry Birds



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
