    Pretty good update so far!!! The bike seems to be pretty awesome!! I've only played like 5 games since I downloaded the update, but it's still great!

    this game isnt bad but it needs to be a lot faster imo.i can get to 1000 every time and it seems dumb to have to play though the early portion each time. canabalt, for example, *pun* hits the ground running *pun*

    the spawning of some monster close to others, which is forces you to jump or take a hit, is not fixed in this update. Developers, you should define this game as rogue canabalt.

    +1. also slowdowns between levels are not needed. but this won't be changed probably. it's halfbrick, they will draw new graphics, like in Fruit Ninja. But not really improve the mechanics of the game.

    Yeah, the heart placement is a bit better but the overall design problems remain.
    Power-ups, spikes, and gaps are still not reasonably placed in relation to each other. The only way to get some weapons is to hit the spikes, jumping over the spikes sends you directly into a gap, etc. Monster spawning also contributes to these issues.

    I'm glad Halfbrick is having continued success and seems committed to updating this game. Hopefully they can focus on the game's design rather than new power-ups in an upcoming update.

    I just want a retina support version. Why not follow Venan who uses an infrastructure to let players download high resolution stuff separately?

    i can see the bike in every single game. i would say that i see it more often than other powerups.
