Doodle Jump Invades Finger Physics

Regular visitors to this site already know how much I love Doodle Jump so it’s always great to see the little Doodler guy make it into other games as well.

The latest game that doodler is in, is Finger Physics.  In the full version of Finger Physics you can choose the Doodle Jump pack and instead of removing blocks to drop the egg into the correct location, you have to drop a bouncing doodler into the basket.  Check out the screenshots below to see how the entire levels are updated to have a doodle theme.

Try out the lite version of Finger Physics to see if it’s your type of game before purchasing the full version, or if you a hardcore fan of Doodle Jump, just purchase the full version so you can see Doodler in another game.

Looped is Free Today

At first, I thought Looped was just another pipe game where you have to get the water flowing. But this game is different.

In Looped, the goal is to make loops or closed off circles with the pipes. Check out the video.

The game looks pretty fun. And it’s currently free.

Red Bull Racing Challenge is Free Today

Red Bull Racing is an okay game from what I can tell in the limited time I’ve played it.  The price has dropped to free, down from the normal $2.99.

It looks pretty good and the tilt controls are alright.  It’s nothing super special but if you want a free racing game, I’d say pick it up.  What do you have to lose?

There is one thing that intrigues me about this game that I haven’t had a chance to test, and that’s the multiplayer feature. It’s looks as though you can play others over Bluetooth.  Download this game and try it with a friend.
