aim low and pray for explosives. The faster you go when you hit the explosives (Labled TNT, LOL, and OMFG) the further you go.

I’m not sure how you people find this remotely amusing. Do you realise how utterly depraved and cruel something like this is? I almost want to make a Pit thread so I can say what I really think of someone who’d take pleasure in something so stupid and barbaric.

Maybe later… gotta break 1296…

This is a sick, perverted game.

The cat sleeping soundly on my shoulder is unaware of just how much fun I’m having with this thing.

1760 for me.

And since I don’t have my sound turned up, I have [this](http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/kittycat.php) stuck in my head as I play. Along with my insomnia, this is all kind of surreal. I could get used to it.

I _do_ think I’m laughing too hard when the little kitty just gets eaten up by the venus flytrap-like plants, though. Whee! Bounce. Whee! Bounce. Whee! Munch. BWAHA!

I’ve managed 1800 or so. The items seem to be randomly placed each time.

That is so sick. (Didn’t someone want to hear that?) :mad:

I got up to 338 - gotta turn on the sound and go back to watch one get eaten by the flowers.

3,166 so far is my best. The dead kitten got up to 243 feet high. Poor kitten.

I’m a kitty cat, and I dance, dance, dance…  
Thanks.

(Every time I play, I get the phrase “Dead cat bounce” in _my_ head.)

I was getting so excited, I thought I broke at least 2000, but then I hit spikes at 1121. I’m so disappointed. To relieve my anger, I might have to go build a real one of these.

Hmmm…1472 is my best so far. I’ve broken 1000 three times (1118, 1112 & 1472). I hate when I have a good shot going, and then I land on the spikes and stop suddenly.

So to Cat lovers out there they like the game too. 😃

2842 - **Prancer** is still the kitty-killing champ.

This game reminds me of [Nanaca Crash](http://homepage.mac.com/pockyrevolution/nanaca_crash.html). I wonder which came first…
