There's a big update on the horizon for iOS classic Canabalt, but unfortunately it appears that a developer is trying to take advantage of the game's popularity by offering a fake version on the iTunes App Store. Being sold by Picks Mano, the game goes under the name Canabalt HD — the sanctioned Android port of the game uses the same title, while on iOS the official game continues to be known simply as Canabalt — and aside from including a different icon and limited language support, it appears to be a working representation of the game, albeit one that won't reap any fiscal rewards for the individuals that created the title from scratch.

Update: As two of our readers point out below, the origin of the app is likely quite clear. Semi Secret Software open-sourced the code for Canabalt back in 2010, even allowing it to be utilized for commercial projects, provided no game-specific code, art, animation, or other assets were used. Given the similarity between the two apps — to say nothing of the names — it seems unlikely those mandates were met.

Thanks, John Reindoer and nothingreal!
