How to Be Good at Doodle Jump

Last Updated: August 6, 2020

Doodle Jump is an addictive game that can be played on the iPhone, iPod and other mobile devices. There are a couple cheat codes and techniques to help you improve.

Steps

1
Learn the control and object of the game :
- Tilt your iPod to control the doodle guy
- Jump on enemies or tap to shoot them
- Keep jumping higher and higher while earning points.
2
Know that some special objects gets you higher. They include the spring sandals, rockets, propeller caps, super rockets (space theme and under water theme only), and trampolines.

If you go to the title screen and scroll your finger at the bottom, you can choose different worlds to jump in like Rainforest, Halloween, Christmas, Space, Regular Stage, Soccer etc
4
Try the cheat codes, type these cheat codes as your name to activate the cheats. To change your name, get to the "Game Over" screen. Type names like"Ooga"(activates cavemen character from pocket god)."Creeps"(changes the enemies)."Bunny" (your doodle guy gains an Easter bunny costume)."E.B. or HOP" (your doodle guy changes into E.B. from the movie HOP).To disable the cheat codes, change your name back to normal.
5
As you go higher, aim lower. As you go higher, the platforms move faster back and forth and you have less time to gauge whether your jump will hit or miss a platform. It's tempting to aim for a higher platform but, by design, many platforms are just barely out of reach. Aiming for a lower platform is worth the extra time considering how long it would take to get back that lofty level.
6
Plan to lose. You of course want to set a new personal record each game but this amps up the pressure you feel to avoid mistakes and, as a result, prompts mistakes. Tell yourself that this is just a warm-up game (or two or five) and otherwise lower your expectations.
7
Study your mistakes. After you lose, calmly recall exactly what happened before you crashed, died, etc. In retrospect, what could you have done to avoid that end? Started shooting earlier or from a lower platform? Jumping off the screen (left or right) to re-emerge on the opposite side so as to avoid a black hole or monster? It may take several games before you find the same scene but you'll be better prepared for it if you stay calm and try to learn from your mistake instead of going bonkers in frustration.

If you see glow jump, don't get it. It's a total rip off of doodle jump.
