    I am loving this adorable cutie-pie of a game!
    Is there a way to make the goats random? I mean, each time I start a new round, a different goat ( that I already have) is randomly selected?

    I use the default tap right/tap left and swipe. I've tried all the other control options but none of them felt as good as the default. Too bad because I struggle with the swiping. I wish the swiping was not part of the game, but then the layout would have to be altered...it would make MGM more fun though. I do love seeing the new iterations of Crossy Road. I hope we get surprised by one that even out masters CR in it's easy one tap controls and fun game play.

    I personally feel that the "Spring" power up needs to have more of a visual difference, especially when the powerup is about to wear off. I constantly find myself losing because I didn't even realize when the abilities would cut off.

    Maybe have a meter similar to the grass meter to show how much time there is until you're back to normal?

    I'd also suggest upgradable power ups for an increase of time of when you need grass and the spring powerup.

    Personally, I feel that the crumbling rock blocks are unfair, especially when a springboard takes me up to one and I can't even react to it in time.

    Also, not sure if I missed something, but the tutorial was kind of lacking, especially because I had to find out what the spring powerup was about all on my own.

    Nonetheless, it's a great game by Zynga.

    EDIT: I additionally wanted to add how cumbersome the title of the game is.. Wouldn't just "Goat Mountain" suffice?

    Minor thing: I'm getting repeating achievements even after I completed them already, e.g. for reaching 100m or jumping on six springboards.

    Is the leaderboard hacked? first 10 places are like millions of meters?? and then it drops to 800 or something like that.

    I'm getting these too. I forgot to mention that.

    I'm repetitively getting the Daredevil one (breaking 10 crumbling blocks in one game)

    One change I would like to see is adding invulnerability while jumping from a springboard. I've died many times by either hitting a boulder while in the air or landing on top of one. There is no way to avoid it and it just comes down to luck. Otherwise I'm having a lot of fun with the game.

    If anyone wants to add me, my gamecenter ID is RHess00.

    Hi All!

    We (the devs) just wanted to thank you guys for all the great feedback, we are reading this thread and definitely taking it all into account - from coin doublers to control schemes to spring-boarding into logs; we are listening. All the feedback is super valuable so keep it coming!

    ALSO - you all have killed a lot of goats... and we mean, a lot of goats! Want to see how your best scores stack up to most other goat deaths, than do we have a chart for you!

    This chart shows goat deaths (Y axis, in millions) by altitude (X axis, in meters) - how does your score stack up?

    In our next post we'll share a pie graph showing the most common causes of these deaths - what do you think the #1 cause is? :)

    Either I have the worst luck, or the freemium wall just kicked on. I've been getting nothing but 10 coins in every chest for the past few days. :( XD

    Is there a way to see how many times you've died? I can't seem to find any stats.

    Edit: Nevermind, you meant the height at which you die. Not number of deaths. It would by nice to see all those stats though.

    Great addictive game. I mean awesome. First, problems.... Constant barrage of achievements showing up at the top of the screen making the game stutter. Springboard deaths are pretty common and feel cheap. Not to mention every now and again the springboard shoots you off the screen and by the time the camera reaquires you find a crumbling block falling beneath you. Don't think I don't love this game though I do. Nothing a couple updates can't fix. Recommend more goats and new levels. Maybe tropical. Maybe lava. Didn't take a pic but managed a 368 score. I want 1000 though.

    Hey all-

    We've got lots of new Goats/Environments on the way, but we wanted to know which ones we don't have that *you'd* all like to see, let us know!

    In the meantime check out this wide-angle view of the mountain from our dev machines... :D

    It has one. It's the depleting grass icon that shows up when the goat is starving.

    Environments..... Volcanic. Nightmare(skulls rolling down the mountain). Tropical(palm trees and coconuts rolling). And a way to track your overall high score and each goats highscore.

    These themes seem great. I'd also enjoy an outer space theme, a machinery/industrial theme (robot goat?), and a sky/cloud theme!
