I can't stop playing this game. I'm approaching 5,000 meters. The robots will not win this time.

I can't break 600m. WTF?

LoganSnake · 10-07-2009, 11:19 AM

1310 on my first try.

I shall play again.

Baraka_Guru · 10-07-2009, 11:22 AM

This really is pure genius.

I've never felt so much like an action hero.

Glory's Sun · 10-07-2009, 11:31 AM

Rodan · 10-09-2009, 07:49 AM

No surrender · 10-09-2009, 03:11 PM

Addicting for sure - and one that everyone wants to play - kids just pushed me out of the way with the "let me do it' attitude.... fun.

remy1492 · 10-09-2009, 04:19 PM

awesome link thanks!

IdeoFunk · 10-09-2009, 09:28 PM

Fun times. Reminds me a lot of Jetman which was a game I was highly addicted too a few years back.

Xerxys · 10-09-2009, 10:04 PM

4704 Motherbitches!!!

MiSo · 10-09-2009, 10:30 PM

it was fun the first 2-3 times.

cheese · 10-10-2009, 02:05 PM

its like the opening sequence to the matrix. games a blast.

rurp · 10-10-2009, 04:33 PM

As frustrating as it is, I can't stop playing.

Poppinjay · 10-10-2009, 04:36 PM

This would be easy if shit wouldn't keep happening.

Damnit, I still haven't passed 4446m. And I have a huge amount of 3xxx times as well (the iTunes app stores high scores).

Xerxys · 10-11-2009, 06:24 AM

The next best score I have now is 3777. This game is based on luck. It's just impossible to know which obstacles to avoid and which to take. Getting through the glass on hallways is impossible also, I only did it a handful of times!!

Ohhh, sorry, did I say 3777? I meant 5054 HA!!

healer · 10-11-2009, 06:37 AM

I've just hit the 4000 mark...I cant stop playing!

Not entirely; you can sometimes estimate how much rooftop is left based on the background of the rooftop. But why am I giving you advice if you have the high score?

Sometimes it's fun to watch the far background. Weird shit happens back there.

LocutusOfOrc · 10-12-2009, 01:31 AM

5124, take that!

Xerxys · 10-12-2009, 04:00 AM

^^ I'm going to beat it. I think up elaborate strategies for games such as these which require no effort, that and I have no life. Trust me, I will beat it!!

---------- Post added at 08:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 AM ----------

Screw this game, no way I'll ever beat this!!

YouTube - Canabalt Record 21808m, 2009-09-08, complete run

donmaytee · 10-12-2009, 03:09 PM

I wonder how long you can run for..

Martian · 10-12-2009, 05:22 PM

I just did 7114, which I think isn't bad, although it's nowhere near that video:

I can't imagine how long that person must've played this game to get that.

remy1492 · 10-12-2009, 06:52 PM

Dang, that dude is as cool as the kid at the local 7-11 who figured out all the StreetFighterII moves before the rest of us did.

Redlemon · 10-14-2009, 06:36 AM

7405! I just found out that there's two different jump heights. On the iPod Touch, it's a long tap or a short tap. That information is making a huge difference for me.

Salem · 10-14-2009, 04:14 PM

1052...why can't I stop playing!

~ 15 minutes later ~

GRR Stop hitting walls and tumbling to your death you fool!

~ 10 minuntes after that ~

!!! NOO !!! Don't turn into a fine mist I SAID JUMP YOU BASTARD, JUMP!

I don't think I'll be getting anything done tonight.

raging moderate · 10-14-2009, 07:43 PM
