Doodle Jump

I downloaded a game onto my iPhone tonight--mistake!  It is called doodle jump and it is such a simple concept; a cute little thing called a doodle jumps up the screen.  Slightly moving the phone side to side and up and down makes the doodle move to ledges which he jumps on and travels up.  If he misses a ledge, he falls down and ends the game.   Sometimes there are springs on the ledges; sometimes there is a trampoline on the ledge; sometimes there is a helicopter hat that flies the doodle up; sometimes there are rockets that shoot the doodle up; sometimes there are monsters that conk him on the head and he falls down, ending the game.  Of course you accumulate a score as you move up.  I'm at 12,378 as of 16 minutes ago.

The really amazing thing is that 5 million people have downloaded this app for $.99 per download.  The brothers who created the game get 70% of the profit so they have made $3.5 million.  And, I took Reliability Engineering instead of iPhone App Programming.
