Interesting. I believe the developer of doodle jump is a solo developer in Florida. I was about to question the ethics of this coder cloning his app, but I noticed he kindly didn't release a working version.<p>We all learn through copying, but I have never seen someone who shared their copying process online... It's funny that it rubs me wrong only because I know doodle jump is a small outfit. If it was a giant faceless organization I probably wouldn't bat an eyelid.
The result is stated in the article, but deserves mentioning again; <a href="http://cssdeck.com/labs/html5-doodle-jump/8" rel="nofollow">http://cssdeck.com/labs/html5-doodle-jump/8</a>
I think this is pretty cool, but if you play it, you'll immediately realize that the physics are off (compare left/right motion with up/down/gravity) Is this just a basic problem with JS games, or a result of the compact implementation?
