Lima Sky has hired Eric Karp as the company’s new chief licensing officer. The veteran of Mind Candy will work with Fremantle Media Enterprises to license Doodle Jump to other partners.

“There have been endless opportunities to license Doodle Jump,” said Lima Sky’s Igor Pusenjak. “However, we held back because of concerns about uneven product quality. With the right curators now in place, I can’t wait to show the world the amazing new Doodle Jump products.”

“It’s no secret that Doodle Jump is the last untouched powerhouse brand that has emerged from the world of smartphone gaming and apps,” said Eric Karp. “Three straight years at the top of the charts and over 40 million downloads is the result of a carefully developed content strategy. Lima Sky listens closely to its millions of Doodle Jump fans. It’s crucial that ‘Doodle’ and company find their way into the real world in the right way.”
