    No, it's secret so it can't be happening :p. Not sure sure what kind of contraption we could add anyway, hmmm.

    A couple of announcements:

    Many thanks to the 30 beta testers or so who registered! We'll close the iOS registration in a couple of days with the next build, so that's the last chance to be part of it. A shorter android beta will start soon.

    Thanks to those who voted on the poll. This confirms our original plan of making the game paid without IAP at launch.

    The build 0.8.4 is now available!

    - New trail look upgrades
    - Visual Tweaks (icon, sharper platforms, more visual difference between Pwr-up, leaderboard)
    - Now giving an extra jump after teleport
    - Added 50 coins reward per daily completed
    - Split doom mode leaderboard score upload, popping-up platforms can't be guessed now
    - Numerous bugs fix like: trail after teleport, various trouble with pause menu, magnet attraction, kamcord related issues, completed all missions is now partly handled, falling through small gaps, etc

    Beta registrations are now closed. This is the last major build. Hopefully we'll manage to finish wrapping things up within 1 week, which should be followed by 1 week or so of Android beta test, before submission.

    I seem to have encountered a bit of a bug. I was playing the Easy Daily for today and I landed on the very edge of a platform, and the block stuttered and shook and has partly in the edge of the platform. Not sure if it woulda stayed there because I already began jumping due to my pro skills. I'll try to recreate it.

    Happened again. I had jumped from a platform, hit the bottom of a platform above me, then when I came back down that happened. When I jumped the rainbow was pointy like a triangle at the very bottom (at the point I jumped from). Haha I shoulda been recording but oh well

    I can't seem to recreate the bug/glitch. Oh well it's probably too rare and unimportant to worry about

    It happened on the last build 0.8.4? A video would be helpful indeed. Just hit the video icon at the beginning of the next game to watch/submit a video (no account necessary). If you share the link to yourself by email, you can then post it here. There's been a whole list of bugs like that. I tried to fix them as much as possible but there could always be some remaining.

    Can you change the main block color as well or just trail?

    Got a score of 435 :) My best so far! Noticed in Doom mode there is a rare platform that goes by that has a broken end to it..like it's not connected correctly..will try to get a vid.
    Love the tail/trail selections as well..prices are reasonable too.
