l am still playing Flappy Bird in 2023

Who can relate to me and still play Flappy Bird in 2023? 

Flappy Bird became popular in 2014 and this is the time that I am still working in Dubai. It is a mobile game developed by the Vietnamese video game programmer Dong Nguyen ,  The game is a side-scroller where the player controls a bird, attempting to fly between columns of green pipes without hitting them. Nguyen created the game over the period of several days, using a bird protagonist that he had designed for a canceled game in 2012. 

 The game was released in May 2013 but received a sudden spike in popularity in early 2014. Flappy Bird received poor reviews from some critics, who criticized its high level of difficulty and alleged plagiarism in graphics and game mechanics, while other reviewers found it addictive. At the end of January 2014, it was the most downloaded free game in the App Store for iOS. During this period, its developer said that Flappy Bird was earning $50,000 a day from in-app advertisements as well as sales. 

Unfortunately, Flappy Bird was removed from both the App Store and Google Play on February 10, 2014, with Nguyen claiming that he felt guilty over what he considered to be the game's addictive nature. Due to the anticipated removal, those phones who managed to keep the game have been sold for an incredibly higher price posted through Amazon and other online selling stores. I also keep a copy of this game on my Android phone.

Flappy Bird now deleted on Apple Store and Google Store

Game Over for Flappy Bird, the game was pulled out of Apple Store and Google Store! As noted in Kotaku, Nguyen said earlier this week that the press was “overrating” the success of his games: “It is something I never want. Please give me peace.”



Earlier today, Nguyen Ha Dong, the Vietnamese man who built the smash hit game Flappy Bird, removed the game from the app store.

Flappy Bird which was said to be one of the most addicting game caused a sensation after rising out of obscurity to become one of the most downloaded mobile games on both Apple and Google's online stores.

Flappy Bird will be deleted from Apple Store by Developer

Today's most popular and yet annoying game is reportedly, going to be deleted by the developer itself from Apple Store anytime today, February 9, 2014. The game is said to generate $USD 50k a day from ads and already downloaded 50 million times according to online reports.



Honestly I already deleted the game from my iPhone and downloaded it again today after hearing the news just in case it's true.



Pretty much everyone in my school is playing this game. If it is even remotely similar in many other places, then he has done well in the downloads department.



I don't think his success is faked.



In a series of tweets made just minutes ago, Nguyen stated that this move is not due to legal issues, but rather because he “just cannot keep it anymore.” Take a look for yourself…



However, the Developer Dong Nguyen @dongatory tweeted yesterday, february 8, 2014.

Flappy Bird- How to become Top Scorer

Wonder how these TOp 25 PLayer got more than 9,000 scores in Flappy Bird?, and so do I. According to Huffingtonpost, 'Flappy Bird' is an insanely irritating,
difficult and frustrating game which combines a super-steep difficulty
curve with bad, boring graphics and jerky movement.



 Flappy bird is by far the most annoying game you will ever play in your
life. It will make you so angry you will literally scream (I am not
kidding you). The game itself is nothing special. It is just a bird
that is more or less a falling brick with a vague bird-like appearance.
The bird will basically just drop dead right as you are about to reach a
new high score. It is almost like it had a heart attack mid-flap or
killed itself on a random pane of plexiglass. The bird also defies
physics, falling faster than even remotely possible and thus ending the
extent of your sanity and happiness. The game is not fun but it is
addicting. The joy you feel after finally beating your record is
indescribable and the boiling anger you feel inside of you instantly
diffuses only to fill you with false hope that you may be able to do it
again and possibly even do it better. This is what will convince you to
keep playing. But the agonizing cycle inevitably resumes again with the
dreaded smack of a sound effect punch, once again refueling the hatred
for the bird right back into every fiber of your being. The only reason
I have not yet deleted this horrid game is for the overwhelming sense
of relief and accomplishment I feel when I finally beat a high score;
and it is for this reason, I fear, that it is why I keep playing until I
cannot hold back a punch. I assume this feeling will soon consume you
too but don't say you were never warned.



Huffingtonpost added, some crucial tips to help you get a high score:

1. Learn to relax. This game is incredibly buggy and
annoying. Often you'll fail even when you don't actually touch a pipe.
This is because the game doesn't work very well. Accept it. Embrace it.
Life is confusing.
