The point of my game is that the timer ticks from 10 seconds, and you should tap the screen or space as close to 0 as possible. My code is checking if my current score is closer to cero than the highscore. This works perfectly exept the fact that the highscore is always 0. I can manually se the score to be 10, and it works. How can i not make this code set my highscore to be 0, but let the highscore start at 10?

	public float counter = 10;
	public float HighScore = 10;
	public TextMesh text;
	public TextMesh text3;

	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {

		HighScore = PlayerPrefs.GetFloat ("High", 0);
		Time.timeScale = 1f;
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {

		counter -= Time.deltaTime;
		text.text = "" + counter;
		text3.text = "" + HighScore;

		if (Input.touchCount > 0 || Input.GetKey (KeyCode.Space)) {
		
			CheckHighScore ();
			Time.timeScale = 0f;
		}

		if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.A)) {
			Application.LoadLevel ("level");
		}

	}

	public void CheckHighScore(){
		if(Mathf.Abs(counter) < Mathf.Abs(HighScore)) {
			HighScore = counter;
			PlayerPrefs.SetFloat ("High", counter);
		}
	}                   
}

This line:

HighScore = PlayerPrefs.GetFloat ("High", 0);

The second argument is a default that will be used if High is not yet set. If your default value is zero, you will end up getting a zero the first time you play, and that will be a tough score to beat!

The simplest solution is to use a better default:

HighScore = PlayerPrefs.GetFloat("High", 10);
