    Well ever after Pluto gave me the tip I used this method to complete the game. The double tap instruction is misleading imo.

    Really great game. One of the best I've played on the iPhone. I do wish there was a story though, but the gameplay more than makes up for it.

    Agreed haven't had this much fun with a platformer since uhm Pizza Boy, and
    that was only because I didn't have this back then. :D

    Hey guys! The only level to get the "Don't Jump" Achievement on is Level 40 (the final level) :)

    Yes on my iPad 2 4.3.2 and my iPhone 4 4.3.1 both have an annoying stutter. It's as if the background scenery animations overwhelm the CPU. It'd be a lot nicer if the Frame rate remained solid.

    I have to say this game is simply fantastic! I really got into it and enjoy it a whole lot. I'm currently #36 on the main leaderboard something that makes me quite proud as well :) If anyone has any doubts, this is a truly wonderful, wonderful game. No problems on my iPad 2, just make sure you don't have too much running in the background.

    Tip: Don't try to double jump, just quickly and repeatedly tap the thrust button.

    My only wish: More levels of course!

    I've decided to get this game. Would you recommend I get the Mac version (1 buck extra) to have physical buttons and HD graphics? Thanks in advance.

    Level 24 in my opinion was the hardest in the game. Stick to it, or just attempt to pass it without collecting all the sugar and you'll be fine.

    I don't have a Mac but on my iPad 2 the game control is flawless. Never did I feel the controls make me stumble. I prefer to play it on the iPad 2 over the iPhone 4 just because of the bigger screen. The graphic clarity on the iPad is wonderful.

    OK, thanks. I already bought the iPhone version, but if I like it a lot, I'll get the HD Mac version as well.

    I'm ranked #11 on the main leaderboard! Whoa! So proud :)

    Loving this game, I really had a blast but I think I might be done with it now. Well worth the $1. Keeping fingers crossed for more levels!

    I just beat the game. I can't see myself replaying it, but it was a great experience while it lasted. One of the best platforms on the appstore, imho.
    The last boss is a real b**** for the first twenty tries :p

    Yeah that boss is damn hard to beat, those two extra cannons gave me a hard time, i just evaded them while shooting blindly, in the end it died

    Just beated the game, same no replaying. Later levels are bigger than i expected and thats a good thing. I liked the game, clever and charming. Recommended

    The easiest (maybe) way to kill the final boss:

    The final guy is not hard! Simply stay between the first left and the first right barrels (don't fly) and continue to move (follow the rhytm: left to right, left to right, right to left, right to left ...) LOL
    Doing this I've defeated him at the second try no kidding :p

    Honestly, I don't think I'd buy this again. I expected the game to have almost shooter-style controls in which you float through space. Instead, it's just a basic platformer with mediocre level design. Also, the teacup just looks weird skidding along the ground.

    I don't think it's bad, but there are much better platformers for iOS.
