  • did any one notice the robot monsters in the background

  • In all its simplicity this game is a little gem. And the soundtrack is awesome! (Danny Baranowsky)

  • my friend is rank 20 in the world ;) just 15 ^^

  • A shame this game didn't have even the teeniest amount of depth to it. Could have been great, ended up being utterly pointless and frankly a bit stupid.

  • I dunno about a lot of these indy games man. It's all style over substance if you ask me.

  • @megamarsvin

    sometimes the style can be more enjoyalbe then the substance.

  • @laputahayom For a minute or two maybe.

  • this game is like i must run acept with black n white every where

     and pixeled down

  • beat my record in Vector Rush .. on facebook 12,336,450

  • This game is so much more fun if you:

    Step 1: Put the game on mute (by pressing zero)

    Step 2: Play Dashboard by Modest Mouse while playing the game

    its very fun.

  • they should have come up with a level 2.. at one point! with different colors and graphics. Too bad, there is no crumbling building collapsing... It's seem slowing down with box and office furniture help...

  • Was anybody Else hoping there would be more to it then falling buildings, chairs, boxes and a random missle crash!

  • What the heck...? There are like 1000 birds at 0:47....

  • What a boring "game".

  • there is actually a trick to canabalt. Make sure you run into the obsticales so you can slow your self down and those robots won't randomly appear up in the place.

    Also you go slower so it makes it a little bit easier

  • 79,881

  • Just did 11.382m :)

  • Can someone please explain to me what this game is influenced by? Like I swear to god this brings back some weird deja vu feeling like I have seen a movie or something JUST like this in the past. Its really bothering me because I have absolutely no idea where I have seen something like this in the past, but its just such a creepy deja vu feeling that I can't get to go away lol. Was this influenced by some movie or show or anything?

  • @Lazer77 matrix?

  • @Lazer77 Maybe I'm wrong, but it may have influenced the Rapture world in Super Meat Boy. Both game also have the same composer.

  • oh, and my computer screen screwed up and changed colours. so uh, i have canabalt in colour... so yeah... ITS TOTALLY SICK MAN.

  • wait, why do you have different buildings than me?

  • I've gone around 10,000m

  • Comment removed

  • I got 15000. Don't know how I got it, I usually top at about 10000. U was just lucky with the windows. :P

  • anyone can do 6100 if you keep hitting the blocks to slow yourself down, i know its tactical play and all that but i'd be REALLY impressed if i saw someone get 6000 without hitting a single object to slow themselves

  • Dude I've gotten like 8000 on it. It's not that hard.

  • The widescreen's longer than the shits it gives me.

  • my top score was like 3700

  • i get so dizzy when i play this game

  • This is an AWEOSME game. MUCH harder than it looks forsure!

  • this is a LESS hardcore version of robot unicorn attack

  • Wtf is wrong with yoy people? I avg at 4500 and my record is 9,000! The world record is sonething like 75,000 though

  • you fall i the easiest moment

  • This is Robot Unicorn Attack for straight men.

  • how do you smash a glass wall from outside to inside in this game? I always smack the glass wall just like nickjonasbigfan!

  • mine was 1700 not kidding

  • WHEN U HIT DA WALL I WAS LIKE =(

  • dude i cant even make it past 1750 lmao

  • More exciting submissions to look forward to from this mighty youtube user (I predict):

    1. solving a game of freecell

    2. winning minesweeper on the expert level

    3. clearing 4 entire columns simultaneously in tetris with a single 4x1 block

    4. clearing away all the pellets in an entire level of pac-man

    5. defeating all the aliens in a wave of space invaders

    I tremble with anticipation. Heh heh. I've gotten farther than that without hitting any boxes, by then he was going almost 100 m/s.

  • @medexamtoolsdotcom The Pac-Man and Space Invaders ones are so easy -.-

  • @medexamtoolsdotcom Can I touch you?

  • @medexamtoolsdotcom Shut your computer off and never get back on. This person is actually pretty good and may be compatible of a lot of things.

  • Look at the background I can see 2 giant robots and a ruined city so I'm guessing you're running away from a robot apocalypse.... o_O

  • This game is genius, I actually get mini heart attacks when I almost miss a jump.

  • @Msvoc He propably didn't record it from any iOS hardware. Its also available for PC as a flash game :)

  • How did you Record that?

  • I keep dying when I hit the glass wall, wtf. :(

    BUT MUAHAHAHA, this game is pure epic.

  • pretty lame score

  • @lolzordje123 lol the score is more than lame. My one is 29 000 :)

  • Amusing, the world is being sabotage by aliens and this guy is randomly running over rooftops, smashing windows until he hit a wall and fall? Simply amusing.

  • @FFXfever The implication is that he's trying to escape.

  • 6 people turned into a fine mist.

  • @syaoranoni54326 its now 7

  • @BuilderBrick After 9 months.

  • The runner heard a new Burger King opened up, so he's running over rooftops to get to it.

  • @xZippy38 but what about the missiles? D:

  • @jerrysaen McDonalds.

  • @xZippy38 so McDonalds sent missiles to destroy the runner D:??

  • @jerrysaen They sent out all those robots and missiles to stop anyone going to Burger King.

  • @xZippy38 OHMAIGAWD

    IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE!!!!

  • My best score is 105,816. The trick is to purposely trip over boxes, so it slows you down so you don't go too fast.

  • Best iPhone game. EVER.

  • looks fucking boring!

  • my best score is 6369

  • You can just FEEL the adrenaline pumping through you as you play this game

  • haha crap graphics wtf

  • @girlsdrinkfeck Good graphics don't make a good game, ass hole.

  • @SolidSulfur ooo boo hoooo , but it does !

  • @girlsdrinkfeck Explain, but don't use examples, just explain.

  • @SolidSulfur i dont see the sales of ataris and commodares selling very well for gaming ....

  • @girlsdrinkfeck I said no examples try again.

  • Music = insta-boner

  • @thepranqster1 damn man that's freaking pro. or were you just lucky?

  • first time playing this i got over 10k

  • He runs 6190m in 2:34 minutes, thats amazing. Running the marathon must be a piece of cake for him!

  • How did you record this?

  • The Runner looks like Micheal Jackson. :)

  • @DidISpelThisRite thats because this game is about Micheal Jackson fleeing the country. Or maybe the matrix but probably MJ

  • @DidISpelThisRite that's the same thing i said when i seen this!!! LOL

  • my best is 1 trillion and i won a shark with a lazer on it's head, so there!

  • The game is ludicrously easy when you keep hitting things. Come on, man.

    Try to avoid ALL objects, THEN see how far you get.

  • i would get the game but the constant running and stuff will make me dizzy and its so repetitive.. they need to be more creative

  • Chop Chop Runner is better.

  • my best is 9924

  • w00t my higest was ~3500

  • @MaxikingNimero With slowing yourself down?

    Because I got 6500 without hitting anything, although it took a lot of attempts.

  • needs more robot unicorns and erasure songs

  • I got 15944 -.-

  • 12 585m on ipod... i find it easier there than the computer

  • why this game is only for the iPhone cuz when i downloaded it and try to sync it it tells me this app was not uploaded bla bla cuz its for iPhone or something

  • tha aint true i got my second gen ipod touch and im playing it right now if you read the "bla bla" maybe youll know why

  • ok listen thats what it says : The application ''Canabalt'' was not installed on the iPod Touch because it requires a new version of iPhone OS . ! thats the ''bla bla'' things now any advise ?

  • then why didn't you download the new firmware and update your iPod touch so you can play it. Listen "iPhone OS" its not just for iphone the say iphone os but its also for the ipod touch dont you get it? you just need tu update your ipodtouch firmware on itunes and thats all

  • Thanks I've got it but a problem appeared ;d it did not get the update and got into recovery mode then it wanted to connect to iTunes and it got back to factory settings and now I have to Jailbreak it again lol ;d but thanks for the help anyway appreciate :P [ if I have a mistake in my english you can tell me cuz I'm Bulgarian ;d greetz :P ]

  • its 4 pc too

  • This video is horribly stretched.

  • i don't get this game, who is this dude, what is he running from, and y are there people trying to kill him?! please answer my questions

  • robots/aliens/robotic aliens have taken over the world, they're killing everyone, he's running away from them in hopes to survive.

  • Let me answer them all in one simple statement.

    YOU DON'T NEED PLOT FOR SOMETHING TO BE FUN!

    It's a simple concept, but rather hard to play. Awesome way to waste time.

  • Oh this is not iPod nvm

  • How did u record ur screen plz tell me thanks. Ii sub for free

  • GOTA LOVE THOSE BACK GROUNDS

  • For some reason the name is disturbing for me. I look at this and I think about Michael Jackson being a cannibal.

  • EXACTLY

  • Oh great now you ruined it for everyone!

  • @itchyfingers89

    it KINDA looks like Michael Jackson but I don't see how it makes him look like a cannibal

  • (4 ipod)

  • not worth £1.79

    no way

  • かっけえええええええ

    背景だけ見てたい。

  • YOUR DEAD HAHAHA!

  • i got 9678

  • i love the music to this game!!!

  • Wow, I really love this game. My strategy is to hit a box on purpose every now and again when the guy gets too fast for me to follow.

  • the guys shoes look like micheals jackson's

  • he also looks like MJ

  • it is MJ, someone said on newgrounds it was tribute to him, i didnt no MJ could run fast and jump that high! lol

  • lol i see alot of robots in the background, did they take over that world or something? love the game btw!

  • Averaged out, the guy's running speed here was 92 miles per hour. I think Sonic the Hedgehog has a fellow robot-hating speed demon in this guy, here!

    (This post is not about Star Control II.)

  • Borat: VERY NICE! :D

  • wen tht huge staute came fell from the sky on my first time tryin i waz like wtf!!!!!!!!!!!! lol i jut died and iwaz like wow th waz cheap....

  • This game clearly reminds me of Tom Cruise for when he always runs his movies on War of The Worlds!

    Has any one else noticed that?

  • yeah! he runs really straight and head up. this also reminded me of the Matrix, how is is running across rooftops and jumping across buildings. The music I swear sounds like the stuff off the Da Vinci Code and I reckon this guy who did that just now had a lucky run :P

  • me too:)

  • Adamatomic did a great job on this game. The graphics alone make up for the intense gameplay.
