Marble Blast Mobile Pause Bug

(Bug has been fixed in version 1.1.0)

Complete an entire level while the game is paused!

I had to pause one day while playing a level, so I paused, then shut off the screen, and when I came back and unlocked the screen, I was able to roll around even though the game was still paused. I tried seeing if it would allow me to pick up gems and finish a level, and it did, though I was not able to jump, use the camera, or use PowerUps. The only input allowed is the accelerometer.

I thought I'd make a video to document the bug and for (very) minimal entertainment purposes.
I think it's simply a GUI error, because obviously, due to the fact that I was able to finish the level and get a time, the clock still runs fine, and gems and PowerUps are collected fine.

I wonder if this'll get fixed for the next update.

And about the video itself: Yeah, the iPod's not always in the shot fully, and my playing skills are horrible, but that was due to the fact that I had to calibrate the accelerometer in a very awkward angle that I've never used before. I got the audio from feeding it into the laptop (as you can see in the background) and recording it while playing. I also have the iPod charging off the laptop, and those cords were definitely not helpful to my playing.

Haha, camera reflection at 0:26. This glitch doesn't work for me for some reason, it just stays paused...

wow, really? What device do you have, 1st gen ipod, 2nd gen ipod, 1st gen iphone, or iphone 3G? (this is on a 1st gen ipod)

And I only noticed that the iPod made a noticeable reflection until after I put it on my computer, so I didn't want to redo it :P

I have a 1st gen ipod also. I don't think it would change on a different system though. Hrm. Too bad the reflection didn't show your face. I guess that just proves how little of the screen you must be able to see. :P
