    If you hit it before the ball deploys I think.

    Yeah, I was experimenting around with the gadgets :) Still trying to think of the best money making one...

    Magnet+Gemology seems like the best IMO. Lucky Last and the Token Gift is a slow, but cheap way of getting rewards :p

    Any tips for usage of gadgets?
    E.g.: which combination of gadgets gives you the most coins?
    ....................................................... the longest distance?

    Ps how much is a "gemology coin" worth?

    a gem is 10 coins
    gemolgy & coin magnet = kaching mode = most coins.

    Pretty much the same as it is now, but with less "stuff".

    you are welcome!

    @Muscat!
    I really Enjoy playing this game, the best way I like to play is from the scratch, have done that thrice & its awesome to get everything back again... my own achievement satisfaction 8)

    The techno music is brilliant, somewhere I can get this soundtrack like AoZ's?

    A few update ideas :

    New gadget ideas
    ~ Unicycle
    ~ Pogo Stick
    ~ Lightsaber-ish

    Wardrobe
    ~ DarthVader-ish
    ~ DC & Marvel-ish avatars?
    ~ Spock-ish

    Feature requests :
    ~ 8 bit mode with a 1337 score / or & 1337 coins achievement (lot of gfx re-work, yes... but totally worth it, may be an IPA for it?)
    ~ Adding a button to de-magnetize all / as many vehicles that have been magnetized on one touch (I try the germaphobe achievement quite a few times. @ least thrice)
    ~ Shuffling / picking of missions (lets say you offer 5 & I pick any 3 of those) &
    Options of shuffling the missions once chosen already if @least one of them is accomplished.
    ~ how about giving a test drive zone where one can test drive their favorite vehicle?
    ~ a new slot for gadget, not 2.... 3! More is better! :D
    ~ the resuming of the game has a 3 second visual countdown?

    New vehicles & obstacle / death types please!
    How about an oil spill?
    How about a few Pyros with flame throwers? (a captain america-ish shield as a gadget to protect from those flames?)

    @TAers
    Questions:
    ~ Any suggestions to get the bulls eye achievement, I tried the ice, insta-ball, both, gravity belt & sneakrz combo, what not! I am not able to nail that one :(

    ~ More hints about those secret achievements?

    EDIT:
    Scratch Bulls eye, taken care of! ;) It was more about try til one succeeds I suppose.
    Help me with the bottom obstacles 3 times in a row thing, some good work woody thing.
    Is a diagonal zapper which touches the base of the screen considered a bottom obstacle as well?

    For the woody achievement, if i remember correctly, just start your game and let yourself run into the very first obstacle, no need to even touch the screen.


    Btw, does anyone know what the secret achievement Walkies is? Its my last one and I'm clueless.

    For that achievement, all you need to do is buy the gadget "Flash Dog" and "walk" him for 10KM(10,000M) total.

    ;)

    If I buy the double coins machine fraud IAP for 2.99 will I be able to restore my purchases on all my devices later?

    Wakey Wakey bro,
    It want free in Dec 19 2011 :D probably because they built on profit via IAP, which isn't a greedy machinisem unlike Gameloft for instance...

    Long time ago :p Went freemium a while after launch.

    I nabbed the game for 0.99 and the counterfeit for 0.99, and seems the counterfeit machine is now 2.99 :p I'm happy :)

    Just bought a super head start 5 pack and didn't get it! What is up with this game being so buggy? First I lost my progress with the Open Feint/ Gamecenter, now it seems that I keep losing in game purchases (this is probably the third time I have had this happen yet still can't figure out why)! Anyone else have this issue?
