Ahahaha, what the shit. Apparently I suck. I got barely over 10k

My highscore is 55k, Ranny's is 62k.

I saw this on your FB status. Was waiting for you to post here.

Amazing game.

42k now... :/

16k at most. :(

YES! 56,564!

Highscore: 92096

N needs a eurodance/synthpop soundtrack just like this game.

Oh no. Not another "N needs music" argument that's about to boil.

This is bullshit. ;_;

Dude, Tsukatu, that game is /amazing/. Dead at about 2500 meters in 10 minutes.

Hey, what? Didn't I post Canabalt somewhere before? I swear I posted Canabalt somewhere before.

Everyone in my flat's been playing this, let's give it a shot...

15k. =\

Ooh, make that 30.
And I've seen Canabalt before, so I can only assume it was posted or tossed around the IRC in one of my fleeting glances there. 4050 on my first try. Got taken out by one of the goddamn closed buildings.

The music in this game is the absolute worst. :(

Agreed. I play the game on mute.

Whaa? The music is a critical part of the game! The gameplay is too simplistic to be enjoyable for more than 30 seconds; it's the atmosphere that makes me love it. The clash between the supergay, sparkly, butterfly-collecting, rainbow unicorn adventure and the cold, badass, determined tone that the game is presented with is what makes it great. Everything is bright, and the high contrast makes the unicorn's metal body look all the more menacing. You leave rainbow trails as you collect butterflies while you annihilate all opposition by smashing mercilessly through it Juggernaut-style. And the inspirational messages when you begin versus lives being called "wishes"! The game is truly a work of art. You can't have the game without the music.

Fabulous game

23k was the best I could get after many many wishes

This doesn't seem to work for me. Doesn't load at all.

Best viral internets thing I've seen in a while.

The amazing epic story portrayed in the video lays a whole other layer of depth onto the lyrics of that beautiful song.

I agree wholeheartedly. I'm pretty sure that song got waaaay more downloads when that game became semi-popular.

I downloaded it.

They should release CANABALT as an Xbox live arcade game, that would be awesome!

Ahaha. This is epic. After about 10 minutes of play, my highest score was 18K. I hope to beat this score soon.

Yes. I love that game, play it online and the iPod version.

Highest run i've ever gotten was about 60k, then i f'ed up and got 10-20k after that.

When it's cold, outside, am i here, in vain?
