    This looks really good. I love the artwork. I hope that jump charging system works well and that the game has powerups like doodle jump.

    ABOVE dose not have powerups that you pick up in the game.
    But you can say that ours are very similar because some of the special platforms work as powerups when you jump from them.
    But who knows, maybe we will add powerups like that later on in a update as well :)

    Great news! This is on my list of "blindless" purchasing! :D
    Though I'm pretty convinced, a gameplay video would be great :)

    This looks so good. Reminds me of either a miyazaki or makoto shinkai film. I'm drooling over the look and promo art.

    Hehe, that was never the inspiration for the game but many people mention it. Guess our artist just has that style. We where more inspired by Sony Bravia commercials and some music videos.
