Our little doodle friend sure has gone a long way since we reviewed it as the Pocket God guys visited them. Today, Lima Sky has announced that their AppStore casual gaming champ, Doodle Jump, has now reached 5 Million downloads!

How did they do it you might ask? Obviously, the game’s basic concept of tilting your character and reaching the highest heights is addicting in itself. However, multiple well timed updates that celebrate holidays and other special occasion made it literally relevant for years now.

Doodle Jump In Pop Culture

Here are some examples how Doodle Jump infested the pop culture:

• Spoofed by Jimmy Fallon on Late Night

• Used as a fashion statement by a Lady Gaga dancer
• Mentioned on The Big Bang Theory
• Obsessively played by the Jonas Brothers and Andy Murray among others, Doodle Jump has already become a pop-culture phenomena.

There seems to be no dying down in the game’s popularity as Lima Sky has been hard at work at Doodle Jump iPad for quite some time now. Brace yourselves from something extra sweet once that’s released. They wouldn’t take this long if there’s not going to be anything new besides revamped graphics.

What should they take on next? Doodle Jump iPhone 4 of course!
