It basically looks like doodle jump with a Mario skin. I never got doodlejump, but the doodlejumpesque game in poker got I love. Anyone get this Mario version and know if it's good? I don't trust these iTunes reviews but TA rarely let's me down. I wouldpost a link but don't know how. It's been around over a week I think and not taken down.
it cant possibly be better than doodle jump. if you want any doodle jump like game, just get doodle jump.
If I remember correctly the guy that made this game stole the code from another game called tweet jump or something and then slapped Paper Mario over the bird. It was a big outrage when the game first was released. I think a lot of people shunned this game just because of the fact that's it's a complete rip-off.
Yup. The original game is called TweeJump, and it was just some "sample code" that another developer posted. This guy took the code and changed 1 picture to mario and submitted it as a whole new game. Some people will do anything to get money!
lol i love how people defend by saying, o that was a rip off of X game... in reality most all games are rip-offs of something, somewhere.... i mean doodle jump(came out mar 16, 2009), came from papi jump(came out aug 27, 2008) and papi jump+ (in Sep 29, 2008), which probably came from some flash game which probably came from some nes japan only release game....
yes the mario guy changed one picture.. thats it.. copy code, etc etc.. not talking about inspiration type games.. i agree papi should get more credit for being the one that started it on the appstore but since doodle jumo is selling so well they think it was first. chris.
Yeah that one actually was a rip off. Exactly the same game code, 99% same graphics. I prefer Bird Strike to Doodle Jump anyway, even though it's not quite the same thing.
ah i see, but still even not in cases like this people claim to rip offs. Almost every mmorpg ive played i keep seeing people saying, "o that was in WoW, thats a copy of WoW" kind of like it was the first and only mmorpg in existence...
Wow, did realize it was 100% plagueized. I mean, I knew the Mario images were stolen but the code too? I want it because it's Mario, but I wouldn't feel good supporting such a dirtbag "dev" even though I probably shouldn't honor him with such a title.
I believe that technically, the code was open source and free to use, so he was allowed to use as much of it as he liked... doesn't really change the fact he did no work at all though.
