The height is limited. It's around 20.000 depending on the level-generator.

Sry 4 doublepost, but it would be nice to get some feedback Even for the trialversion.
Just to see if it's worth to continue developing new features.

Update 1.2 is submitted. New theme comes in 1.3 which is 90% done. Had an harddrive error, sorry for the delay.

For implementation: improve app icon (Background.png), it should be 173x173, now too blurry.

As for gameplay, all WP7 "bouncing" games are losing the original "Doodle jump" by features, graphics and physics.
May recommend you to add moving (horizontally and vertically) monsters and auto-aim feature for hero.

App icon is 173x173, i'm confused why it's still blurry.

And I don't want to copy DJ 1:1 so I'm satisfied with the gameplay ( and cuz I have so little spare time as a student )
Vertical monsters are implemented since v1.1 but are appering only in higher regions > 20000.
Auto-aim would be a nice feature, but then it would be too easy sometimes. Maybe a mix of manual and auto-aim?!

Anyway, thx for feedback.
