    Congrats on the well deserved 5 star review on TA!

    Does collecting the pink forget-me-nots do anything? This is the one character I bought so far.

    Ok, so I noticed that
    when you collect 10 or so FMNs with him, the screen flashes after you collect more in the same run. It doesn't add any coins or points as far as I can tell.

    This is an addictive game. Very, very addictive.

    Thanks for the heads up. I finally decided towards buying the ghost, since it was the one (along with the gravedigger) who changes the game the most. I also won the wolf, which changed the lighting quite a bit, and the penguin, so the ghost seemed the way to go. And I was right: not only does it tamper with the lighting a lot (very dark!) but it also changes objects of the scenery! Nice one there.

    Ghost: changes to night mode and adds graves and graveyards to scenery.
    Gravedigger: changes to night mode and adds graves and graveyards to scenery.
    Wolf: makes the lighting a bit darker, something between day mode (standard) and night mode (ghost/gravedigger).
    Penguin: turns scenery floor to white instead of green, imitating the south pole.

    That's my experience. There are others that change things a bit (Epoch shoots at things, for example), but the ones at the top are the ones which make the most changes.

    No coin doublers. Devs said that coins come in at a steady and good rate, so no coin doublers. If you want to support, buy a character. I went for the ghost.

    As others have said, this is a great game. Can see it staying on my ipad for a long time. Great job devs.

    Klicktock- if you are looking for ideas for more characters I'd suggest mouse, squirrel, bear (different kinds of bears koala, panda black bear), old lady, king, queen, knight, moose, Christmas themed like Santa, snowman, Abominable snowman, elf (with high pitched voice), giraffe, tiger, lion, kangaroo, t-Rex. So many possibilities.

    Also like Andy mentioned in one of the first posts maybe a speed run mode to 100 would be pretty cool.

    This is one of my most played games at the moment, really love it and I hope you reach the top of the charts :)

    Stuck on 139 for awhile. Thinking of buying Epoch and Penguin but the Dark Lord is pretty cool too. Just received Hot Shot
    and he hits a base ball once in a while

    Just got Dark Lord and Dracula, brilliant!!!

    To reiterate my comments on the well deserved TA review:

    Everyone is utterly hooked on this amazing game. I'd go so far to put this as a contender for GOTY - gamers need to purchase at least one 69p character to feed these awesome developers please.

    Not until you've spent a few hours on this game do you realise the sheer amount of work and detail that went into this game. All the noises, play it with headphones to hear the traffic and trains whoosh past. The lighting, shadows it's hard to describe but I've not seen or played a game of this high quality for a long time.

    Easy GOTW for me even against all the other strong releases. They've taken a classic Frogger game and made the most addictive endless runner ever. Released as a FREE game with nothing in your face forcing you to spend a penny. We should all buy a character out of guilt...

    ^^Good advice and nice compliments to the dev, Fedorov.

    I bought the Epoch and Forget-Me-Not characters. Are those two only unlockable via IAP? I figured they were because of the App Store logo above them. So I bought them to make sure I could collect 'em all, and to support these awesome guys, of course.

    As for future content updates, I like the idea of more characters, and I always like achievements ;) Another idea would be some way to sync your character unlocks across devices.

    This has been my go-to game this week. My other apps are getting jealous :p

    I unlocked the hidden character! Ha. Love it. Very appropriate.

    I'm up to 187...I find I get too impatient and speed along haphazardly...a speed run to 100 would be killer. Any speed run amounts, really.

    I have received duplicate frankensteins and duplicate ballers and I think black sheep too...at first I thought it was just from the presents, but I've been earning all coins this afternoon and still got duplicates.

    Thanks for the kind words Fedorov.

    Character suggestions are awesome. We'll keep a big list. Had a request for the Minecraft Creeper, but you all are going to have to beg Mojang for that to happen! Haha.

    Regarding support there's three things you can do.

    1. Buy characters (and thanks to everyone who has).
    2. Watch Ads (this does help - I swear!)
    3. Tell ALL your friends!

    We've got our fingers crossed for #1 game but there's a pretty stiff hill to climb this week :)

    Wrong, Epoch and Forget-Me-not are available by lottery.
    If you see Appstore logo it's only a link from their previous games on the store !
