I really need to stop playing this.

I'm at 637 feet. So far. [Big Grin]

That's a little disturbing.

But my record is 893 after about 10 tries. It goes farther when it hits a bunch of trampolines and stuff. [Cool]

14 feet is my lowest. How low can you get? [Big Grin]
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
243 ft

Aimed at 60 degrees. Fired with minimum power. I was try to go short distance and he just kept HITTING things!
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
11 ft
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
Ooooooh, 1603. Wow. [Hail]
 
Posted by ricree101 (Member # 7749) on :
 
Oh man, I thought I was doing good with 744.

Actually, I know I've gotten better than that before, but I have no idea what my best actually is.

Edit: ooo... 1013 ft not bad so far

I've been trying to aim really low with the cannon. It seems a lot easier to gain verticle speed than horizontal, so I figure that I'll just give it a lot of horizontal speed from the start and hope I hit something explosive.

My personal record is a little over 1800 feet. There's a guy here at work wit ha screenshot of his 3406 foot record.

Shortest I've gotten is 12 ft.

Did anyone ever play Fling the Cow when it was still around? Oh how I loved playing Fling the Cow. I flung and flung and flung the cow. It was so soothing.

I'll give you fair warning.

If you got hooked on playing kitten cannon, then you'll never look back once you discover the joys of

NANACA CRASH

(P.S.: 'aerial crash' is activated by clicking the mouse button in midair while you're still on-screen. If "Special" appears on the screen, press the mouse button immediately!)

889 feet highest, 10 feet lowest.

Darn you Websense! I want to play addicting games too!
 
Posted by Mr.Funny (Member # 4467) on :
 
1470, 15 low. And I managed to accidentally get over 400 feet on a "low" attempt.
 
Posted by FlyingCow (Member # 2150) on :
 
1137 feet on my third try. I think that's good enough for me. [Big Grin]
 
Posted by Nighthawk (Member # 4176) on :
 
600 feet... but I got him 55 feet in to the air!
 
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
 
1647 first try.

Edit: that means I'm done until someone beats me. [Smile]

Shortest: 11

Longest: 1847

Highest: 142

Least bounces: None (straight on to some spikes about 100 out)

Most number of bounces: I can't count that high or fast
 
Posted by Orincoro (Member # 8854) on :
 
I was into this like a year ago. 2,300 or something was my top score. [Big Grin]


Just got 2160!!!!
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
The high scores page doesn't load because the URL it refers to no longer exists. Why do I know this? Because Fahim is a geek and checked. [Big Grin]

Further proof of Fahim's geekitude? He decompiled the program, tweaked it (at one point, it was suped up) and added a distance calculator so you know as you're playing how far it's going.

Took him half the day. And he did it for the challenge, knowing full well that game has a limited attention life with us. [Roll Eyes] Geek. [Razz]

3,465 feet. [Mad]

Not me.

Fahim.

[Mad]
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
And I just got 2,819 feet. [ROFL] It's Fahim's suped up version. He shared with me. [ROFL]

Hah!

4,424 feet.

Bite me!

4.939 feet. [Big Grin]


Does anyone want a copy of Fahim's work of art?
 
Posted by B34N (Member # 9597) on :
 
What's a Fahim?
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
He's the programmer who's attached to my hip. Well, not literally, but he's close enough that I could elbow him in the jaw and lose all his teeth. [Big Grin]

He's also my husband.
 
Posted by B34N (Member # 9597) on :
 
Oh, oooops sorry, didn't know, now I know and that half the battle. What is his work of art? Is it another kitty cannon game?
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
He hopped up the kitty cannon game. Twice. Now, he got 8, 457 feet.
 
Posted by B34N (Member # 9597) on :
 
What'd he recode the game??? That's cheatin'. There's an interesting question, Is being smarter than other people cheating????

Go ahead and and share it.
 
Posted by dantesparadigm (Member # 8756) on :
 
how big's the file?
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
Two files.

KittyCannon.html - 2 kb
KittyCannon.swf - 431 kb

Download both to the same folder, then click on KittyCannon.html to start the game.

Now for the cheat...

See, you can play the game in regular mode by doing the same thing you're doing at the website. Or you can super charge it by...

Use CTRL to get 4x the speed.
Use shift before CTRL (must be done each time) to increase the bounce.

6,450 feet. [Big Grin]
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
9,144 feet.

Fahim tells me he got 40,000 amd had to stop it. He suped it up even more, and it reached the point where there was no grass left, just bombs or something... Clearly, he can take the suping up only so far...

I think he's insane.

It happened when my computer was being laggy and weird. So I was basically just spamming the keys. [Big Grin]
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
The suped up version definately doesn't work for me.
 
Posted by Little_Doctor (Member # 6635) on :
 
Puhlease...I've been playing this game for a long time. I'll have to bring back some of the old magic if I want to beat you guys.
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
Alcon, what happened? It should work...
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
Excellent. Thanks quidscribis and Fahim, I can play the tweaked version at work 'cause it's not blocked by Websense.

If you only use space bar, is it the same as the normal online version?
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
No numbers or text show up. Meaning the buttons, meaning the finish numbers, meaning nada zilch zip. Which kinda beats the point, cause I can't see how far I've gone.
 
Posted by vonk (Member # 9027) on :
 
They worked fine for me and I just clicked on the links; didn't save anything.
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
vonk, yes, space bar is the same as the online version.

Alcon, I'll point this out to Fahim and see what he says. [Frown]
 
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
 
Alcon, Fahim says to upgrade your Flash version to 9. That may resolve the issue.

Let me know how it goes.
 
Posted by Alcon (Member # 6645) on :
 
That's probably the issue. The linux version of flash is still back around version 7 I think. Least the one the flash plugin always has me download is.

Stupid proprietary languages...
 
Posted by fugu13 (Member # 2859) on :
 
I believe they just released the latest flash player for linux.
 
Posted by Stone_Wolf_ (Member # 8299) on :
 
Can't seem to get better than 1193, and that's, okay.
 
Posted by jehovoid (Member # 2014) on :
 
1780. It was glorious. Got eaten by a plant. Still had a good bit of momentum too.
