    I can't believe more people aren't talking about this game. I have been playing it non-stop for the last few days and it keeps getting better. The challenges are challenging and the game play is fast-paced and varied.

    The one thing I like best about it, though...I can play one-handed. It sounds stupid, but it makes it much more appealing for me.

    Just on a side note: Are there any plans for new content/game modes/characters? I am wary of bringing this up, since the game is practically flawless as is...but I do want something else to look forward to later.

    This game is fantastic...haven't has this much pure fun in a while. There's a rush to be had when you nail a triple flip as the avalanche is bearing down on you, then grabbing a penguin for skis in mid-air, zooming through a cabin to pick up a snowmobile and then flipping that in mid-air...so so fun.

    Ha, yup, have to agree. This is definitely one of the best endless games I've played in a while. I caught a bird and hit 8 backflips before landing. Was freakin saweeeeeeeet. I know I could have got more, but after 6, I stopped cause I thought I was close to the ground... Probably could have got 11 or 12... =oP

    Probably in my top 5 iOS endless runners. Riding on the back of yetis and penguins is incredibly badass. Want to see a(n) shop/upgrade system eventually. The sense of urgency isn't really there though. Not really a fan of endless runners when they start taking over 5 minutes per play, but this one is still pretty fun.

    A Christmas theme could be hilarious:

    elf instead of penguin
    Santa in place of yeti
    Rudolf could swoop down like the eagle
    sleigh instead of snowmobile

    It's endless... So it's as long as you want so long as you stay interested...

    Can you stack your animals? Like can your yeti catch a penguin and then another yeti?

    You can "taxi" them. Like when you ride the yeti (2nd) form you can take a penguin for a ride, for example

    and when you're on a bike, you can taxi 2 animals...

    I've towed 2 penguins and a penguin and a yeti... dunno about 2 yetis

    Edit: You can't tow 2 Yetis while on the snowmobile

    Enjoying this on par with Super Quickhook or Jetpack Joyride. Only missing silly things to get with my coins.

    Superbly addictive game. I love the fact you can get a ride on the animals, the backflips and air you catch is very fun. This and Skylanders cloud patrol are games I'm playing a lot on my new iPad

    Is there any way to extend/manipulate eagle flight time? Or is it constant?

    Loving this game, hope to see it get more traction (and updates!)

    This is a really fun endless game, but already on the second run I got to 11 000 meters which took a while to get there... Not really a fan of long endless runners unless it's as good as Dungeon Raid :p
