    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    Once you have purchased the wings, double tap on the screen and they will appear. They will only last for a certain amount of time though....but if you die while wearing them you'll "ressurect".

    Buy a head start, then at the beginning (very start of your run) tap the little arrow.

    Can someone the purpose of invibility and boost? Doesn't boost just make it easier to die since you're running so fast?

    boost runs for you; you don't have to move during boost since the computer controls your character for whatever distance. invisibility allows you to walk over open spaces and through trees, however you still have to turn.

    I like this game a lot, but I tried it on iCade and I'm not feeling that much at all. The game plays better without iCade. Which is fine, of course. Maybe you can get use to that control scheme, but I don't know. There's a lot finer control of your left/right positioning via tilt. Tilting the iCade would be a bit cumbersome. ;)

    Yeah, the key though is to jump in to take back control the SECOND he stops blinking.

    Just noticed this was about to become the top grossing game in the AppStore. Holy shit. Looks like going freemium was a great business decision. Congrats. Grabbed it as soon as it was out, and it's still my favorite endless runner besides JJ.

    You have the recognition, everyone loves it. If you make a part 2, with maybe scenery changing after a certain distance and a few new features and charge .99 cents for it, you will be a millionaire. I bet you that.

    Don't let any cheap people on here convince you otherwise.

    Played before this got popular. Got a score of over 7 mil. Saw myself in the top 100. Deleted it and now I'm still in the top 200 :p

    Yeah, when you mix a freemium done well and casual game that anyone can love and play, you've got a winner.

    Thanks everyone. We're beyond thrilled with how Temple Run is doing, obviously. Who would have imagined?! So huge thanks to all of YOU for playing and spreading the word!

    We keep hearing stuff like "everyone in my high school is playing it" or "everyone on the metro is playing it," but we still have not seen it in the wild (we don't get out much). That's the next milestone :)

    Currently working on the Android port and some more cool stuff for iOS updates!

    Come to my high school... you'll know what everyone's talking about. There's also a glitch that's exploding lately. You go in the tutorial on any of the turns you swipe 3 times really fast and your guy will run on a endless path with no obstacles. All those high scores you see on the top 100 most likely aren't legit. You can also find videos of this on youtube. If you do patch it don't mention it in the patch notes or else probably no one will update it.

    Man, that's annoying to hear. I worked so hard in Beta testing it to get near 3million... and as soon as it was released, hundreds of scores beat it by ten-fold!

    Yeah all my friends have Temple Run and now Jetpack Joyride also :) They don't buy apps like I do so it's something big for them.
