Canabalt

Yet another great iPhone game I found in the iPhone store. Canabalt is a bit more expensive (but still below €3). It's a running game. The graphics aren't that flashy. There's only black, white and some area's of grey in between. As soon as I saw it, it reminded me of an Apple classic called Dark Castle.

Controlling the game is real easy (just tap your finger on the screen to jump). The only variation is that you can tap harder (or softer) to jump higher (or lower). That's about it.....

The further you run the higher the score, and the longer you run (without running into things), the faster you go. On your way you'll find 'some' obstacles like; gaps between buildings, crates, computers (??), things that drop from the sky and turns you to dust if you run into them. Some obstacles slow you down, others just mean the end of your (running) life.

Below are some screenshots of the game.

Just got a v1.2 pushed (free update) through iTunes. Now with more music, vibration when buildings collapse and a more difficult game. The former version seemed a bit easier, but that could just be me.
