“Nimblebit describes Dizzypad as a cross between Doodle Jump and Koi Pond, but quite frankly it’s much better than both.” - App Advice
“like with any good game, it’s harder than it looks and does a good job keeping you trying for higher score.” - Touch Arcade
“It’s addictive and simple fun, with every missed jump just one tap away from starting over again and that familiar thought that ‘this time, I can do it better.’” - TUAW
“Overall it is another solid game from NimbleBit. The difficulty curve is just right, the control scheme efficient and the presentation certainly a cut above” - Games Uncovered
“Just like Nimblebit’s 9 other games, Dizzypad is as addicting as it gets!” - Appmodo
“a fun, well-rounded, casual and visually good-looking gaming experience which is both addictive and at the same time, a joy to play. I really can’t recommend this game enough!” - 148Apps
“The combination of strategy, challenge, and fun make this game an instant hit” - No DPad
“Dizzypad LOOKS easy but it’s challenging in itself and challenging to put down, it’s that addicting!” - The APPera

Dejobaan Interviews Dave Marsh about NimbleBit
Dejobaan, makers of the game AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! among many others – has interviewed me about NimbleBit as part of their “Half a Million Seconds with an Indie Developer” series of articles on ModDB. Read it to get some behind the scene info about the three headed turtle that is NimbleBit!
LEO JAITLEY: How does NimbleBit keep their beards so healthy and lustrous?
DAVE MARSH: This is probably one of the most often asked questions we hear, and I can’t divulge too much information other than to say it involves a steady diet of beef jerky and orange oil treatments. The overwhelming scent has the additional bonus of keeping one’s self awake during late night game jamming.
