Read full description

Keep your pangolin rolling by grabbing mangos and shields, while also avoiding rocks and cliffs. You'll earn points for each mango you eat and for every second that passes. Maintain your mango streak to earn bonus points. Tap the screen to jump, but be careful to watch your mango meter! Each jump consumes mangos and if you run out you'll be unable to dodge obstacles. You can jump a second time while in the air to get out of sticky situations. In-game achievements and high scores are automatically saved to your Game Center account, so you can track your progress and compete with your friends.
