We’re very happy to announce Bounce has crossed the 2,000,000 download mark yesterday which was exactly 7 days after it’s release. Averaging over 250,000 downloads per day since it’s release, this makes Bounce the fastest growing game every created with Buildbox.
The previous Buildbox record holder, Phases, received 977,000 downloads during it’s first week, and coincidentally crossed the 4,000,000 total download mark yesterday.
At the time of this writing Bounce is still hovering in the Top 50 of all free games and is available on iOS and Android. Make sure to also check out our story of how Bounce was created and see a video of the Buildbox save file.

Thanks Tiana,
Can you tell me what other games besides Bounce are made with buildbox published under Ketchapp?
Hi Anthony, just Bounce and Phases currently, though there are more coming.
Trey I noticed a few games by Ketchapp that have some cool features.
Don’t Touch The Spikes how was this created with buildbox? How do you do the dual player feature and all those game options? If this is buildbox it would be an awesome tutorial!
For other games like Spring Ninja how do yo make the mobile phone buttons that allow you to hold down to set the strength of the jump?
On Stick hero how to you make the controls and stick extend for a mobile app?
Thanks for any info or tutorials on these. :)
Hi Anthony, unfortunately a lot of these great games are published by Ketchapp who we work with to publish game through, the ones you mention are not Buildbox creations nor are the game play types supported in Buildbox. We apologize for the confusion.
Can you upload your own characters to use when building games on Buildbox
Hi John, yes you can upload your own characters. The images must be in PNG format and be no higher than 70 DPI. They should be scaled down to game size prior to import into Buildbox. Aim for iPhone 5 art standards as a baseline.
