So, my friend was messing with music and audiosurf, and made this neat track. He named it The Dive (Here Kitty! Mix), and put a video and a link up on Youtube.

I was mildly annoyed with him for sacrificing his score in the name of "cleaner" movement in the video, so I made my own track and beat his score using my mouse. I ended up with a final score of 1,333,713 (leeetie?) that I know can still be bested. He is a better player than I am, so this was mostly just for fun.

For those who want a link to the music track itself, you can find it here.
