    D3 Publisher announced that Smoking Gun Interactive's motion-controlled Kinect adaptation of the iOS hit Doodle Jump will launch for Xbox Live Arcade on June 28. Doodle Jump for Kinect features the same endless, vertically scrolling action that defined the iOS original, but this time, players will have to physically move side-to-side in order to guide the Doodler's ascent. The Kinect version introduces three new worlds not found in other ports, and also offers a selection of all-new power-ups and boss encounters. Doodle Jump for Kinect will be priced at 400 Microsoft points ($5) when it premieres next Friday.

    Doodle Jump for Kinect on Xbox Live Arcade will launch for 400 MS Points ($5) this summer. Smoking Gun Interactive will adapt Lima Sky's popular vertical platformer to Kinect, adding "three brand-new worlds, treacherous bosses, challenging achievements, engaging power-ups and intuitive gesture controls." Those gestures include lateral full-body movement and "a flap of the arms" to control flying, just as you would in real life.
