I realised that the mega magnet doesn't get replaced by anything (turns EVERYTHING into double coins, even obstacles ), but I have had other stuff, perhaps the mega umbrella or mega balloon, get replaced by inferior powerups. And yes, turning on/off powerups would be cheap I simply meant having a menu where maybe you could prioritize what powerups can replace other ones, but then again I guess avoiding unwanted ones is just part of the game On a different note, I've been having some freezing/lagging problems with my iPod Touch 4th gen. Most of the time, whenever I die it will lag for several seconds as soon as my character has fallen off the screen before my scores and stuff come up. It hasn't crashed on me yet, but just a little annoying with the partial freeze. But hey, still an awesome game!! Any ETA on the update with the next powerups? I'm trying to decide whether to save my current 6500MP to upgrade to mega gravity boots or wait and upgrade the jump boots Thanks nickfury!
Max gravity boots are pretty awesome, they get you further than any other power-up faster. You can get like 16-17k in one power-up, way more than any other power-up. Good chance that jump boots wont be as good.
I really hope a fix for the crashes can really be updated soon. I can't take advantage of the red umbrella at all now, because every time I hang over a lot of coins, it crashes because of the intense graphics that should follow.
We have made a number of bug fixes and optimizations for the next update, so the lag on Game Over should be minimized in Update 11. The Mega Umbrella crash bug has been fixed and will be in update 11, so grab that update when it comes out! Update 11 should be available in the next couple of weeks, and will include the new upgradeable Jump Boots, which has become a really fun and explosive powerup (get ready for some sonic booms!) Both the Gravity Boots and the Jump Boots are based around speed. The Jump Boots will go faster the more coin combos you can string together, so it has a higher top speed, whereas the Anti Gravity boots have a more constant speed.
Update 11 has been submitted to Apple, and should be out in 5 to 10 days! Here's more info: http://getsetgames.com/2010/12/04/mega-jump-update-11-jump-boots/ In other news, Mega Jump reached 7 million downloads, and is well on track to get 8 million by the end of the month! Thanks again to everyone who has helped make this game better and better with each update!
cant wait for the new update. is anyone else having trouble with the MP apps? i downloaded 3 apps yesterday and i got no MPs
We had some server trouble with the sheer volume of people using the Earn Free MP option, but we made an update to the servers which should fix the problem with people not getting awarded MP correctly. Yes, the crash problems should be reduced, and the crash with the Mega Umbrella has definitely been fixed. With the number of new features that we've added, older devices seem to be running into memory issues. Update 12 will feature a lot of optimizations that should help things run more smoothly.
did you remove the push notifications in this update? o yea and the dinosaur guy just seems like a reskin of the orinal bluto and redford characters
