Imagine Canabalt, but with a robotic unicorn pounding along to the sounds of new wave band Erasure's "Always."

This is Robot Unicorn Attack, Adult Swim's attempt at taking the run-until-death genre and dowsing it in rainbows and fairies.

Originally a Flash game, it's now headed to iPhone and iPod touch next month.

The unicorn dashes through the fantasy world, double-jumping over gaps and smash down star barriers.

It's got a polished look to it, though the music looks to be the heart and soul of the game, having earned the mythical mechanic beast a number of fans.

Whether or not the track by Erasure will make it into the paid iPhone version remains to be seen.

Robot Unicorn Attack will be available for iPhone and iPod touch on June 1 at a price of £1.79/$2.99.
