New York, New York – Lima Sky, the creators of one of the most popular iPhone apps, Doodle Jump, announces a long-awaited update that brings multiplayer functionality to the immensely popular app. The game that has captured the hearts and minds of millions of casual gamers around the world thanks to its playful art style, sublime tilt controls and charming protagonist, now allows players to challenge and compete with other iOS players globally via Game Center over a Wi-Fi connection.

The new multi-player game mechanic pits Game Center friends or auto-matched Game Center foes against one another in a heated race to the finish line. Doodle Jump’s signature power-ups can only be used by one of the match’s players which makes for ultra-competitive gameplay. A rematch option also allows players to attempt to even the score after a close defeat.

“It feels great to finally release the multi-player update to the millions of Doodle Jumpers around the world,” says Igor Pusenjak, founder of Lima Sky. “Competing against your friends for the high score has always been one of the most fun aspects of Doodle Jump. This update transforms the experience with real-time jumping races.”

The move represents the first of many development projects scheduled for 2011 as the established studio continues to expand the Doodle Jump franchise. With development plans to also bring Doodle Jump to XBLA Kinect, one of the hottest sectors in console gaming, as well as development plans for the long-awaited Doodle Jump for iPad, this year is poised to be the biggest yet for one of Mobile’s most famous franchises.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later (iOS 4.0 Tested)
* 18.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Doodle Jump 2.0 is only .99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

All shall bow before the virtue of Justice!

The various Ultima 4 (yes, the one made in 1985, before many of you were born) remakes floating around the web were hit by EA cease and desist letters this week despite EA, um, giving the game away for free.

The fact that EA seems to have no problem with people downloading the 1984 vintage version, yet cracking down on rewrites that people can, you know, actually run as a web based app may well be related to Paul Barnett’s subtly hinting (note: for Barnett, this is actually considered subtlety) at a Facebook-hosted reboot of the Ultima franchise.

As part of Rogers (Canada’s largest cable ISP) essentially declaring war on Bittorrent, Canadian World of Warcraft players discovered they weren’t immune, as it was discovered this weekend through an audit by Canada’s telecom regulator that Rogers classified the game they were playing as a bandwidth Weapon of Mass Consumption.

Thank you for your letters of February 23rd and 25th, 2011 regarding the impact of Rogers Internet traffic management practices (ITMP) on the interactive game called World of Warcraft.

Our tests have determined that there is a problem with our traffic management equipment that can interfere with World of Warcraft. We have been in contact with the game manufacturer and we have been working with our equipment supplier to overcome this problem.

We recently introduced a software modification to solve the problems our customers are experiencing with World of Warcraft. However, there have been recent changes to the game, which has created new problems. A second software modification to address these new issues will not be ready until June.

The problem, in a nutshell, is twofold.

First, Blizzard launched with a peer-to-peer update system using Bittorrent. While many people complained about this at the time (including myself, loudly), over the years Blizzard has refined their downloader/the Internet has caught up with the need to keep millions of WoW clients updated/people just accepted the fact that patch day downloads were awful. Eventually third party vendors such as Pando other MMOs (especially free to play ones) such as Lord of the Rings Online moved to peer-to-peer updating as well.  However, to ISPs examining traffic, Blizzard’s users were using a Bittorrent client. Because… well, they were!

Second, with the introduction of Cataclysm, Blizzard refined their peer-to-peer downloading system to the point that it was embedded within the client itself, allowing users to play while new content was being streamed to them. This in and of itself wasn’t new, but it meant that WoW players could potentially be running a peer-to-peer application – called World of Warcraft – the entire time they’re playing WoW. Which resulted in Rogers throttling ALL traffic used by the World of Warcraft client, to the point that Rogers customers were being advised in the WoW forums to use a VPN tunnel just so they can play the game.

Of course, you would think that ISPs would be aware that World of Warcraft is, by dint of being one of the if not the most popular internet online game, something that users might be a bit sensitive regarding. Then again, given that Rogers also regularly breaks the internet’s most popular VoIP client because apparently people have the temerity to actually use it, maybe they just don’t care.

So much for that stereotype of Canadians being well-mannered and civil, eh?
