Not exactly a game, but I'll leave this here. And please don't watch if you're prone to seizures. http://sumire-uesaka-parallax-view.tumblr.com

Absolutely astounding! This was the perfect way to begin the day for me! Thanks!

Wow that's interesting! So apparently, the page constantly checks what time the Youtube video is at and updates the background accordingly. That's a Really nifty idea, never thought about it!

Haha, yeah-- when it finished playing, my computer fan was running it top speed!

I'm surprised that it was able to key to the video so well, although I guess on a slower computer it might have been a problem. One downside is that it took me forever to be able to click on the dismiss button for the stupid Youtube ad.

I had the same problem, only around half video I was able to close it and noticed that the page keep a score of how many falling things you touch with the cursor.
Does an higher or lower score change something? I need to replay it...

The Youtube video itself gets embedded through a java-script which is how it's handled, but it's pretty amazing. But man yeah, the page needs some serious CPU power! http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
